Savannah Kitten
ok
The difference between a well socialized Savannah kitten during the first 3 months and one that isn't is huge. There have been enough cats and kittens run through here as well as Savannah Cat Rescue, people have a pretty good handle on what catteries give kittens better life chances and a more solid base for adapting.

No matter where this cat is from, your situation isn't ideal for a rehome, especially given the cats current personality traits. Perhaps Brigitte will chime in, as more than anyone she will have the best idea of what has and hasn't been successful in the past.
Thankyou this forum and you guys has been a very big help,that was my main concern was Bella the f2 around my 8 month old,although she is not a crier but Bella being a Savannah and already 5 years old worried me a little im thinking about going to see her and see what she does when she sees the baby and with them having her on Craigslist for free was a real huge huge concern going to ask alot of questions when we get there because I ask why there getting rid of her and that's the question they ignore and they tell me that she doesn't like her taxi she runs when she sees it but Wednesday they texted me and asked how soon could I get there because she was locked in i told them to leave her out I want to see how she's going to do when she sees my baby and 3 year old that would tell me more because if she pins her ears back she's staying there

It definitely sounds like you need to meet this cat before you bring her home with you - please let us know how it goes!

Im not so sure about that Patti as meeting this cat will likely reveal far less than a detailed discussion with the owner and possibly the breeder, if that information can be obtained. A skittish cat that ducks out on strangers is going to take some work, and I'm not sure after a week of quarantine you'll have a good idea where this is heading given the load of children and other pets.

Anyway, I have to ask the original poster why it is so important to have this cat?
