Welcome to MD Savannah Cats
Savannah Cats are a hybrid cat breed derived from the African Serval. Savannah's are playful exotic pets , active cats that can grow quite large at times. You can own a little leopard without the hassle of a USDA permit.
Savannah cats can grow up to 30 lbs or more! depending on the generation of the kittens, and usually range from 12 to 25 lbs.
Savannah cats are still quite rare, as the breed is still new to TICA, (since 2001) and good cats are still hard to come by
MDC Cattery is registered with the TICA "The International Cat Association and specialize in High Percentage Serval Savannah to Savannah breeding in an effort to keep the large size and wild look of these beautiful cats.
All of our cats are Hand Raised in our Home.

Savannah cats are being purchased by some companies and re-sold as "Ashera" cats (which are nothing more than Savannah cats with an insanely high price tag) beware of this scam.
If you are looking for an Ashera cat, its really a Savannah cat you are looking for.
All of our cats are hand raised in our home. and have a very playful attitude

All this with and a super temperament too! as I bottle feed each kitten and raise these cats in my home.
Savannahs are considered one of the larger breeds of domesticated cats. Their tall and slim build gives Savannahs the appearance of greater size than their actual weight due to the stronger genetic influence of the African serval ancestor.
Male Savannahs tend to be larger than females. Early generation Savannahs may weigh 12 to 25 lbs. Size is also very dependent on generation and sex, with F1 male cats usually being the largest. Later generation Savannahs are usually between 8-17 lbs.
Because of the random factors in Savannah hybrid genetics, there can be significant variation in size, even in one litter. Some breeders report Savannahs in excess of 30 pounds, with at least one breeder claiming an over 40 pound male.
