Savannah cat v Bengal cat
If you love BENGALS, you’ll fall head over heels more in love with the Savannah cat v Bengal cat! The Bengal is bred from the Asian Leopard Cat (ALC) which is actually a mean natured cat, whether it’s domesticated or not, they just are not a friendly cat. The Bengal being a hybrid from the ALC and a domestic, inherent a handful of those characteristics and can be very temperamental. ALC is also a small exotic cat weighing around 12 pounds full grown.
Naturally the bengal will be around the same size as a regular cat. They have short legs, round heads, round eyes, smaller pointy ears, and their coats have rosettes (large multi colored irregular spots) Photo to the right is a bengal cat.
Bengal cat v Savannah Cat
The SAVANNAH is a hybrid of the African serval. The African Serval is a much larger cat than the ALC. The average Serval weighs around 35 pounds although there are larger ones weighing 55-60 pounds but not as common. The Serval is the cousin to the Cheetah. Tall legs, long bodies, short tails, massive tall rounded ears, triangular faces shape, hooded eyes that are boomerang shape. Their coats are usually golden (some melanistic – black with black spots, and snow- white with tan/grey spots) with solid black spots all over and 2 thick black stripes down their neck on down over their shoulders. The serval behaves like a domesticated dog, very smart, loyal, loving, plays fetch, walks on a leash, loves water etc. The Savannah inherits the larger size and personality of the Serval. Not only do you get size and exotic look with the savannah, but you get personality and manageability of owning one in your home since they use a litter box just like a regular cat. Don’t get me wrong, Bengals are very cool and have awesome markings but once you experience both, the Savannah leaves an unforgettable impression.

What is a Savannah Cat?
The Savannah cat is one of world’s rarest hybrid cat. Its a cross between an African Serval and a domesticated house cat. Savannahs are recognized for their tall legs, long slender bodies, large ears, long necks, short tails and of course their exotic spots.
The first Savannah produced was by a Bengal breeder, Judee Frank. She crossbred a male serval, belonging to Suzi Woods, with a Siamese (domestic cat) to produce the first Savannah cat (named Savannah) on April 7, 1986. In 1996, Patrick Kelley and Joyce Sroufe wrote the original version of the Savannah breed standard and presented it to the board of The International Cat Association. In 2001, the board accepted the breed for registration.
Today many own Savannahs and they come in all different sizes and colors. Ranging from 10lbs-30lbs. The coat colors vary as well. The traditional BST (brown spotted tabby)comes in two shades warm golden and cool toned with black spots. There are silvers SST (silver spotted tabby) which are almost white/light grey with black spots. There is the melanistic (Black with black spots) they look like a panther. Then there is the classic (marble) they are ones with swirl pattern. I usually only produce the BST but on occasion will have some melanistic show up. I have one Silver queen so on occasion get silvers.
