The F4 Savannah cat will be very similar to the F3’s. There is much overlap in terms of size, type and look between the F3, F4 and F5 Savannahs.
The F4 females will not lose size compared to the F3’s. They too will be 10-12 pounds and measure a couple inches taller and longer than a typical domestic cat. Not big cats, but taller and lankier in their body proportions than a domestic. The F4 males will usually fall in a 14-18 pound range and will appear to be 1.5 times the size of a domestic. While there are some domestic cats that weigh 15-20 pounds, it is on a smaller, more compact frame. An F4 Savannah Sbt weighing 17 pounds is going to look considerably larger than a domestic cat weighing 17 pounds.
Color of the F4 Savannah Kittens
The color of the F4 Savannah kittens should be very similar to that of the F3. The variety of color options are the same. In general though, the coloring tends to lose some of the vibrancy that is found in the higher generations. Once again, there will be considerable variation in quality from breeder to breeder. Along with the quality variation will come a price variation. It is at this point that some will occasionally be available in a $500 range. However, to get one that resembles the wild ancestry as much as possible, buyers will generally have to spend more.
The body type of the F4 Savannah cat will also be similar to that of the F3. Some will be extremely type, while others within the same litter will lean more towards that of the domestic cat, being a little shorter legged, rounder faced and thicker middle. Unfortunately, it is difficult to gauge an individuals body type until they are 8-10 weeks of age and a lot of kittens are already spoken for by this age. In general, many of the F4 Savannah Sbt will give up overall substance, appearing frailer and more refined. Some may consider this type, but the Serval is not a frail featured cat.
F5 Savannah cat
Although considerably removed from the wild ancestry, sharing your home with an F5 Savannah cat is still a fun and rewarding experience. Once again, there is considerable overlap between the F3, F4, and F5 Savannah cats in terms of size, body type and personality.
Size of an F5 Savannah Cat
Like the F3’s and F4 Savannah kittens, the F5 females will fall in a 10-12 pound range and measure slightly larger than a typical domestic cat. They will be taller and lankier in their body type. Most F5 males will fall in a 14-18 pound range. At Select Exotics, we do have a few lines that consistently throw substantial size, producing males that will mature to be in a 20-25 pound range.
