Found it and posted blood work above. I don't have X-rays but before we even had these results the vet told me he was pretty sure it was lymphoma and could see issues with the kidney. It was renal lymphoma if I remember the proper terminology the vet gave me.

Oh no. Goat is also the father of my kitten. My kitten has not had any litter box issues at all, but she is only a little over 4 months old. How old was your kitten when he started having issues? I am upset to think she would continue to breed him if she was aware of possible health issues. We have only had our kitten a short time and love her so much.

Congenital is not synonymous with genetic, it only means that it was present at birth. The most common correlation to lymphoma are viruses such as FeLV and FIV. I've read that there is even a correlation between (tobacco) smoke exposure and lymphoma. It is also more commonly diagnosed in Siamese.

I wasn't suggesting a cause for his lymphoma, only stating the known correlations.

I am getting a little worried about this. My kitten has been sneezing is that a sign of the disease you mentioned? It was actually my husband who found her site. He is allergic to regular cats. I found her to be sweet and kind as well. There was a contract. She seems to love her cats. I actually googled f 2.5 savannah which is how I found this website! I decided that my kitten was likely a f3 in reality. We had already put down a deposit at that point and decided to move forward in spite of the 2.5 issue.

Heather, just know that Savannahs are NOT hypoallergenic.

or our misguided believing them to be hypoallergenic.

Well, if you are a breeder, you should know the facts...and then present accordingly - JMO

Agreed, although not knowing the truth is much different than claiming falsehoods.

Heather, just know that Savannahs are NOT hypoallergenic and anyone who tells you they are is not being truthful.

Interesting my husband does not seem to be allergic to our kitten. He generally sneezes constantly around regular cats. I did wonder about whether savannahs and hybrids are really hypoallergenic as I read different opinions online on this issue.

Every person is different and will react differently to certain cats...does not mean the cat is hypoallergenic.

It is interesting, what I have found is that some people are more allergic to Savannahs than domestic cats and others are less allergic - it just depends on that individual's particular allergies, just like people have different reactions to different pollens.
