Our new baby

[Ladyhawke]

Last night we welcomed into our family a new kitten. Her name is Samantha. She is an adorable 13 week old F2 Savannah. She loves to bounce around and play.

Love the spots. Congrats and take good care of her!

[RoyLPita]

I heard that you can walk a Savanna on a leash. Will you be doing the same?

[boatmangc]

Cute, almost enough to make me consider having a pet again.

I did not know that you considered Gordon to be cute?

[Ladyhawke]

Yes we will take very good care of her. We plan to start leash training after she gets more comfortable with us.

[MM03MOK]

Beautiful coloring! I had never heard of that breed before. The first photo is stunning and so regal!
:congrats:

[Mr. Man]

Your just lucky you met him first:lovies2::lol:

[Ms. Denmark]

She is very cute!! Can't wait to meet her. Congratulations to you and Gordon, on your new baby!! What great pics!

[bawazir]

Nice cat, are they similar bengal cats?

[RoyLPita]

Are you allowed to breed her?

[SpartaPerformance]

Cool, I've never seen a kitten that looks like a Leopard!

[DOOM]

That is one cool looking cat.

Chris and Gordon - Congrats she is beautiful.:D

[TCBO1]

Holy cow!!! Your new kitty is awesome!! I am seriously jealous. For real, Brian and I were just talking about getting one of these cats yesterday with my aunt. We were just concerned that it would grow up to eat our dogs. :)
Awesome! She will not take any crap from your new doggie at all. Being an F2 she is going to retain quite lot of triats from her wild realitives. She will definetly keep you and the dog on your toes. Congradulations guys! I can't wait to see her as she grows.

[Mr. Man]

Want to thank you guys for posting the pics as it made our choice for dinner a snap....mmmmm Chinese take-out:D Seriously though nice looking kitty did you post it's name yet? I'm to tired to go back and look.:sleepy:

[pantheroc]

Congrats guys, cat looks nice!

[martyo]

Beautiful!!!

[Bluerauder]

Very cute. :D

Don't forget Gordon's saying in a slight Chinese accent, "Chicken go meow, beef go bow wow". And ... "Four legged chicken have more meat than two legged chicken".

Her name is Samantha.

Yea, Samantha and her soon-to-be puppy brother are going to be hand fulls but it is going to be a lot of fun as they grow up. Once she settles in more, you guys can meet her.

Thanks Everyone for the congrats. More pics to follow ...

Umm...I guess you didn't read the first post very well. Samantha's name's been in there since first posted. :P :D

She is beautiful! Congrats.

[ImpalaSlayer]

[Leadfoot281]

I believe Casey is looking for more cats. I can PM his adress to you and you can surprise him with a package on his doorstep. :D

[Gryphonzus]

Awesome Cat! The first picture reminded me of a Lynx. I am not much of a cat lover but I did have one cat that I really miss. He was a stray but had an awesome personality. Good luck with your new baby!

[CBT]

An F2? They grade that breed like they grade tornados? Holy sh.........
I say get Haggis leash trained before trying it on the cat. He probably causes more mayhem when unattended anyway, lol. Cool looking cat, I see your deer population declining.

I want one! Very pretty animal, looks like it would be a great part of the family. Eats those annoying yappy dogs too.

You're lucky Chris and Gordon!

[Ladyhawke]

Thanks Everyone, Samantha is a real sweetie! We are having lots of fun with her.

This is how we first learned about the breed.


I want one!

The breeder still has kittens available, interested Glenn?

[Dr Caleb]

Yes, and no. ;) I have two conures that I wouldn't trust around such a kitty. My birds have co-existed with 4 other cats in their lifetime (they outlived them all) but I'd probably want to know more about the breed before attempting to keep them both under the same roof. I'd want to see if Savannas could learn to live with 'prey'.

[rayjay]

A beautiful cat for sure. My domesticated barn/ferrel cats are the best damn mousers I've ever seen. We should have a contest when shes full grown :D

[RoyLPita]

Any updates?

[RoyLPita]

Any updates?

Seriously......any updates and pics?

[Haggis]

Samantha is now 36" long stretch out, 12" tall at the shoulders and at least 10lb and growing. She should at least gain another 5lb - 10lb and grow another half again as large. Pics to follow.

[F8LBITEva]

cool cat. sounds like they get huge!

[JBeezy]

Nice looking cat. First time I've ever heard of it. Did I hear that correctly on the video. Up to $20K for one of these cats?

[rayjay]

Get some pics up Gordon. Got to see her. Do you guys let her "out" like a regular cat?

[tbone]

We just discovered that our cat pissed on my son's bed again. 3rd strike. Cat is history.......
I HATE CATS!!!

Don't blame ya in the least. Sounds like it wore out its welcome. My wife was protecting a male cat we had from me finding out just how much damage that SOB was doing. It had gone knuts. I banished it to the outside/garage under penalty of death if I found it in the house. She thought I wasn't serious...

Cool cat. I have a 4 yr old bengal named Wega. My girlfriends daughter just made the cat its own facebook page. (Wega Herniman) He acts much more like a dog its pretty cool. It was funny to see him and my 180lb Neopolitan Mastif play around.:eek:

[Haggis]

1) Samantha sitting on her scratch post.

2&3) Samantha and Jax facing off.

They are getting along well together.

That third picture looks like something from National Geographic, right before one of them gets f-'ed up, lol.

My Rotty Otto has his own facebook page too. Just don't let the facebook people find out. Apparently only humans are allowed to have facebook pages :rolleyes: Somehow my 13 yr old daughter convinced them that "Otto is a doggie" is actually human. :dunno: The sob thinks he is anyways. All 160#s of him and he isn't fat, just way out of breed standard. He thinks hes a lap dog... Try that one on with a broken spine. :(

Good Gawd, I'd hate to see the food bill!
