OUR STORY

How We Started...

 

Tammy Skeens and her Daughter-in-law, Lexie Skeens, quickly found they both enjoyed many of the same things before ever sharing the same last name. Our first Savannah hybrid named "Maverick" from the movie Top Gun, quickly made his way into our hearts. His nutty antics getting into things and making us laugh daily brought joy to everyone. Maverick was the start of Skeens Savannahs. His cunning and infectious personality sparked the mother daughter duo's idea of capturing those same personality traits in the kittens we breed now. Our goal is to bring joy and laughter to every home choosing to add a Savannah as a new family member, meanwhile capturing the "WILD" to the exotic cat standard look.

More about our Cattery

We are a TICA registered Savannah cattery located in Southern Ohio, based on our family farm where we also raise horses and cattle.

We are proud to say our cattery is FELV/FIV free. We take sanitation seriously! Skeens Savannahs is a "closed cattery", meaning no one is exposed to potential outdoor illnesses. Every person that enters the cattery removes shoes and performs a thorough hand wash in our sanitation room prior to entering the cattery.

Skeens Savannahs currently produce F2, F3 and F6,F7 generation savannahs. Our kittens receive a full vet exam, age appropriate vaccinations, preventative wormer, FELV/FIV blood testing, TICA paperwork at breeder price, as well as our contract agreement and health guarantee. We strongly encourage any potential buyer to DO THEIR RESEARCH! The Savannah breed is the worlds second most expensive breed of cat you can own! A well bred cat is not cheap so if you think you're getting "the deal of a lifetime", think again when choosing a breeder to purchase your new kitten from. It is also a prerogative to research your particular state guidelines on owning a savannah as individual states may vary in regulation. Always remember to ask your breeder lots of questions to avoid the many scammers out there. A good, ethical breeder produces healthy, happy, cats. This breed requires an engaging owner or they will find something to get into as they are highly energetic and naturally curious. Daily play enrichment is a MUST with a Savannah. They can also be one of the most fun and loving pets you will ever own! If you want your very own mini leopard cat, contact us today on new and upcoming litters! We pawsativly can't wait to hear from you!

                  Deposit & Payment Information

 

    Once you have decided on the generation you and your family would like to purchase, a non-refundable deposit will be placed to reserve your kitten until it is old enough to join its new, loving family! Deposit amounts vary slightly depending on the generation you choose as well as if they are breeder or pet quality. Once your kitten is ready to go home, the deposit amount will be subtracted from the total of your kitten being purchased. The remaining balance is due in CASH ONLY upon pickup. If you are shipping your kitten payment arrangement will be discussed.

               * F2 = $1,000 deposit

               * F3 = $500 deposit

                     

               * F6 = Pet Price Deposit: $250

               * F6 = Breeder Price Deposit: $500

               *F7 = Pet Price Deposit: $250

               *F7 = Breeder Price Deposit: $500

           (DISCLAMER! AS STATED ABOVE, ALL DEPOSITS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE UNLESS SKEENS SAVANNAHS CANNOT PROVIDE A KITTEN AS AGREED UPON BEFORE PLACING YOUR DEPOSIT)

         

           Pickup, Flight Nanny, or Shipment Options

 

     Skeens Savannahs highly recommends coming to pick up your kitten in person. This allows more time face to face and having the opportunity to answer any questions you may have about your new kitten! This option may also be less stressful on your kitten and you can feel secure in the remaining money exchange. There are no scams here! However in the case that a buyer cannot come to pick up their kitten in person, a flight nanny or shipping in cargo may be considered. If you choose a flight nanny or cargo shipping, it will be up to the purchaser to arrange any travel plans to ship your kitten.
