What was your first Generation?

[NikkiA]

Our boys arrived in the following order:
F5 SBT Diablo (just turned 3), then F3 Jarvis (turned 2 in February), then F4 Mickey Blue Eyes (turned 2 last month)

F6 (4yo, here for a year), F2 (3yo, here for 3 mo)...and our F for feral mutt (1yo, here for 4 mo)

We're loving all of them. I hung out in the garden for several hours with the Savannahs--it was a wonderful lazy time in the only moderately hot weather. The feral mutt is terrified of the outside--he was lost for 6 days and now only wants to be inside...

F3,,,,when we can go get him!

F2 but that was in 2001 and there wasn't much beyond F2 and F3 available then! LOL!

F4. I was planning on an F3, but I just couldn't say no to that little face! Next will be a later generation, probably an F7. Eventually I would love an F2

My first was F2 but only because I waited almost a year for the F1 I wanted to be born!

F7SBT, quickly followed by an F3B

My first was an f2b with a theoretical higher percentage girlie followed by another f2b boy, also with a theoretical higher percentage. They are both pretty intense, but discovered what breeders really meant when they say "a lot of cat" with my Kovu Monster. I love them both to pieces, don't get me wrong, they are incredible kitties. The bond is enormous and makes me feel special, they are always with me, but they also get upset if I am gone too long according to them. You definitely need to be willing to arrange your life to allow for this! They are very energetic and require a lot of interaction, but for me that is a plus. They also get into everything so I have become hyper vigilant about putting things away. It is apparently a very fun game to send anything and everything flying off counters and shelves, or to grab things and run like the wind and hide it.

I have learned that regardless of the generation, you get a super cool cat with an incredible personality, just read some of the stories and antics posted here across all the generations! I am a true Savannah convert, I am absolutely smitten with the breed.

F7sbt and he was a handful!!!! He's turned the magical 3 now and is way more mellow so to shake things up we just adopted an F5B. Both of ours were a bit older. Jengo was 7 months and biz was a year. We wanted to give homes to babies who hadn't found their forever home yet and support local catteries in that way. It worked out nicely. We look at Biz our F5 now and wonder what a higher gen might be like, lol. He's hard to keep up with!!!!!

I don't think it matters which gen you start with so long as you know SV's are maniacs, lol. We started with an F7 simply because he hadn't been adopted yet and had the thought it might be easier, I don't think it was. That first year was really tough in keeping him satisfied. It took a year to train him on things. It's easier with our F5 because we know he's just as crazy as the first one haha! My friend has an F3 who's much more relaxed than my babies lol
