Savannah Cat in Detroit Needs Rescued

[Pebbles1969]

Any updates on the SV lost in Detroit? Someone said they thought they heard on a yahoo group that the poor thing may have been shot...
Hope this is not the case and it is safely found!

Thanks Sue! That gives me something to think about. About 2 months ago, my cat Cosmo of 13 years passed away and I was (and am still) totally devastated. That day, I adopted a kitten from the Humane Society. I joined this forum because I was trying to identify his breed. He has a wild look to him. I thought maybe he was a Savannah. After some research, I know now he is NOT a Savannah. But I am so impressed with this breed and had considered getting one. But the kitten I have now is only 5 months old and I wondered if I should wait until he is full grown to bring another cat around. His name is Mikey and he is adorable I just have no idea how he would react.

Cosmo,
In my experience the best time to intro cats is when they are young since kittens find it easier to bond and have not yet developed much of a sense of territory.

Cosmo, don't despair. Savannahs make a great addition to just about any cat household. Might even be a good thing for your recent addition! Cats tend to be quite communal and a playmate is frequently just the thing, especially for a young kitten!

It seems like the report on the yahoo group may actually be true...we will update you when we know something definitive.

Really Paige? I've done searches and cannot locate any reports of this. What is the link to the yahoo group?? Very disheartening

Actually one of the savannah rescue team members has been working with the detroit rescue group, so we know a bit more about what is going on. Right now, nothing has been released publicly, since we don't know for sure and many of the news reports are false.

Once we have permission, I will let the team member post the update.

I don't have the yahoo group link - deleted the message - sorry.

If some idiot shot that cat without giving rescue efforts time to work, that would be a very sad statement about human intelligence.
