The Savannah: The Largest Domestic Cats in the World | Cats 101

I thought the Maine coon was the largest cat?

It's not right.

That poor baby in that white room, you can see how anxious the Savannah cat is as it pants and drips from it's mouth. :(

Oh I love Savannah’s. They’re the most dog like of the felines. And smart social outgoing cat is my thing.

My cat does all that but not a Savana

This is definitely the German Shepard or Rottweiler or pit bull of the cat family.

Can. They be trained as Service "Animals" ?

Aww bless don't think a savannah would be a good fit here in London 😂

What I don't understand is why he didn't come back home on his own. Maybe he hasn't been fixed. My cat's routinely escape. Most of them don't really go that far from home. However I do have one that has a tendency to go quite far from home. I guess the wildcat would have a larger territorial desire.

That's a lot of money for a cat. $20,000.00

How big is. Mondo?? He looks like a beautiful pussycat..

Look at these houses 🏘️ 🤣 the average person cannot buy this cat

I thought the main coones were the largest breed?

White people activities

It's like the wolfdog of cats

Another characteristic of a Savannah is they are very protective, mostly of young children.

I'm glad to admit that I got my hands on a Savannah /European short hair, breeding accident. Payed 20 Euros for him, what a bargain. And I can proudly say that he is the sweetest accident that I'm known

My late gray tiger tabby could jump from floor to a 7 foot shelf well into his 14th year.

Hawaii, makes sense, New York, Massachusetts nods nods Georgia what ??? GD It Atlanta 😡

Always been my very favorite of all animals.

The domestic cat isn't really domesticated.

The vigor of an F1 hybrid. Smart, strong and healthy.

Stop breeding wild cats with domestic breeds.. jfc

If you want to be a cat owner KEEP THEM IN THE FUCKING HOUSE! If i see them im making them mine and you are sol😂

Has anyone thought to breed a Savannah to a Norwegian Forest Cat?

These videos have such early 2000s editing. 😆
Awkwardly nostalgic.

While shelters are overflowing with kittens, and countless cats are feral or have no home, another breed which comes with the possibility of ‘too much wild’? Solve the first problem before you create a second.

Cats don’t get lost. Your cat left you

My neighbor has two Savannah's. We live in the country and the owner lives about 6 acres away. One of the Savannah's "Mazzie" decided to move to my home, he has not been back to his very loving home since April of 2023. I already have one stray who lives in my garage which I have never parked (I park my pick up outside....in the winterand hot summers) and Mazzie has moved onto my front yard. Mazzie is a bit on the wilder side. When I pet him and he hasn't had enough loving from me and I try and walk into the house he will attack me so I will continue. He talks ALOT and VERY LOUD cat calling. My husband is building him a heated cat house that matches our house to put on our front porch for the winter. He is huge and loves belly lovin's. I have three cats who do not like him so I cannot let him in but he will have a heated and safe place to live. My husband is a builder of high ends homes so Mazzie will have a high end cat house.

Silly. F2 cat that is too dangerous to be trusted. $20K USD price tag and they didn't chip it so it could be tracked. No collar with tags and no electric shocker to keep it within a fenced area. SMH😅

They're lucky nobody kept Mondo. 😂

Lol I used to see them in my dad farm but you said 20k 😅all this time I wasted. Bro I seen everyday

They’re being banned in more and more countries because a lot of owners can’t control them or live in conditions that are not adapted. Humans played with nature to create a new breed, thinking a new race of cats was necessary. It wasn’t. They created mostly unhappy animals. Presenting 1 or 2 owners who say “all is good” doesn’t justify it.

I have a 5 year old F4 Savannah called Cleo who mothered my 2 year old Blue British Shorthair Charlie....who surprisingly is half the size of Charlie....I think Cleo was the runt of the litter, as she's still kitten sized. Cleo is honestly the most affectionate loving cat I've ever had though - I can play fetch with her, she'll walk up my chest to boop her nose against mine and she 100% knows the word treat! Now I understand why there's always loads of water around the water bowl - I've now caught her scooping out the water so she can groom as mentioned in the video!

At my college I attended we have a savannah just wondering around campus and I’ve lost count the amount of times visitors have to up to me saying we have a lynx and a leopard walking around 😂. He’s actually really shy and sweet

Let’s stop playing and just go for a straight up purebred serval cat.

Celebrity Pet Stylist. Lol

I would never get a fake man made cat

Should of had a collar on him with a detector on it

Most domestic cats are actually virtually wild compared to other domesticated animals. With the exception of certain breeds, like the Ragdoll, for instance, there's very little difference between domestic cats and the African Wild Cat, from which they evolved. The biggest differences in terms of DNA is the wide range of fur patterns in the domestic cat. Some studies also suggest that the domestic cat's gregarious nature towards humans is also based on a genetic change. But that's about it. Anyway, the point is, if you want a wild cat, get a "domestic." You don't need to spend $20k for a Savannah.

Better to adopt a child versus a wild animal..or an animal even for 20k. Don't you think?

NOPE

I could by 10 tigers for less then this cat

The fact that one of the photos is an ocelot... Really Discovery!?!

$20k? I'm airtagging this fucking thing

Imagine cleaning that cats litter box omg I still want one though too cute

Banned in New York dang I live in New York I want one soo bad

I love Savannah cats more then any other breed of cat. Technically all cats are wild, cats are not domesticated like dogs are.
