LEGAL

Savannahs are not legal in every state in the US. We suggest checking with your local city and county ordinances in addition to this site which has lots of information: http://www.hybridlaw.com/

We will not place a savannah kitten in an illegal state or city, and often request to see a

form of identification that proves residency.

SNOW SAVANNAHS

The snow savannah coloring is unique and only seen in a few savannah catteries here in the USA. The color genetics term for snow is technically from the "color point" allele. This means that sometimes we will have a color point kitten who also carries genetics as a melanistic (solid black), so they will look like "Bravo" who is featured in our past kittens section on the kittens tab. The snow color genetics have been passed down many generations ago by either color point oriental shorthairs or bengals so far back that they usually aren't shown on the 5 generation pedigrees.

​

We raise only TICA pedigreed savannahs with no other breeds mixed in.

Our F1 Kendi's mom was an F6 snow, and our F6 stud Korben is a snow, so the F2 kittens from them are often snows. All of the adult queens except for F1 Scarlett carry for the color point genetics!

PRICE

If the price you see listed on another savannah cat website seems too good to be true, it is probably a scam. We have had scammers steal our pictures and videos, in order to post to their social media account in the hopes of getting people's deposits - but they don't have any kittens... And we have seen scammers selling mixed breed kittens who's tails have been trimmed to look closer to the African serval length in order to get higher savannah prices...

When you search for savannah kittens for sale, you may find your way to a backyard breeder who doesn't give vaccinations or a broker who buys from unreputable breeders and re-sells at higher prices. 

We would be glad to provide you with references to prove that we are honest and reputable savannah cat breeders. You may also check out our social media accounts which also include comments from previous customers and picture updates from our savannah kittens now in their forever home.

Here are some questions you should ask when shopping for a savannah: https://savannahcatassociation.org/questions-to-ask-before-buying/

​

How much Savannahs cost can be based on their generation, quality of their traits, and background on the pedigree. Our pricing listed on the kitten tab is based on the quality of the kittens' traits as based on the breed standard. We are definitely not the most expensive breeders to buy from, but we are also not the cheapest.

We value the breed, but don't inflate the price of our kittens. We also don't advertise on many expensive breeder sites in order to keep costs down. As veterinary and food costs continue to rise, we have tried to absorb some of the costs or change how we shop or which vets we use.

Here is an explanation of what goes into the price:
