I was recently at a meeting with one of your current members, Chris Elliott, and his lovely wife, Carolyn. We got on the topic of my new house, pets, and I, in the course of the conversation, indicated my desire to one day own a Savannah. I had no idea that Chris already had two! For me, having pets was never a real consideration until I moved into a home. My last residence was a condo, and while roof access is sort-of outside, it still didn't feel like enough space to be fair to a pet.
Now I've got a big house with a fenced yard in a great neighborhood and the hunt is on. Chris pointed me to this community, as well as SV rescue. I feel the first order of business is making sure I understand the commitment that owning a Savannah entails. Do I get two? If so, do I get them at the same time, or one at a time so that they acclimate with me before acclimating with each other? Is my house big enough? What don't I know that I should be asking about?
I look forward to exploring these topics with all of you on my road to savannah ownership. Thank you in advance for your support. I've already been browsing the forums and this community seems very supportive and friendly!
