I to wanted a big pale wheat colored savannah kitten i watched dale and hollys site for months. then i saw her one day she was perfect so i told Holly i would be over to pick her up in 5 days. When i got there the cat looked nothing like her picture. She was a grey color, not yellow. I asked about size she said around 15 pounds but would look bigger. My cat is 3 now and weighs 6 pounds, not a big cat. She was crazy when we first brought her home, like she had never been touched by a human before. Then she got sick and they told me just give her the meds we sent you. She did recover but this is a kitten mill, you will get a sick cat that is scared of all humans. And they wont return your calls when you need them. I wish there was more i could do or say to stop them from scamming people out of their money. They have fip like crazy .... if your unlucky and your cat dies from fip they say they will let you have one at a discount. even after you spent thousands of dollars with them. My friends cat died she bought from them from dry fip. Holly offered to sell her another kitten for a discount :(
I fell in love with the savannah cats the first time i ever saw one. I waited and saved my money and watched the select exotics site for months to try to find the perfect kitten. I drove 10 hours to get my cat she was nothing like her pic. almost grey in color, they use paint on the walls to bring out other colors in the kittens coat. Our little girl was with us for a week and got sick, she said that is normal just give her meds. She did get better. But she hates most people she is super small nothing like the web says she will be. They have both wet and dry FIP in the cattery and she says it will only happen in .5% of kittens sold so she will give a discount on a kitten if they die from it. And if you have a problem forget calling Holly she will never answer your call once your a problem. I wish more people would understand that this is all about the money for them. All the cats are kept in a huge barn. You cant hold any of the kittens cause they dont get any people time. These people have made a huge killing of selling sick cats :(
Holly must not be given any trust, I thinkShe told me that she could export her cat to Japan and I sent deposit 5,000$ to her. But, due to her serious mistake of vaccination schedule, my cat couldn't come to me in time because the Japan quarantine office is rejecting my cat's import.I asked her to do something about this important issue continuously by sending several emails, but she has never responded to my requests without saying anything over 3 weeks. So I am preparing a legal procedure with my lawyer and protesting officially to TICAAnyone who wants to know further information and has some complaints to Holly is welcomed to my Facebook (sejung oh)and instagram(@tiffkoon)I DO NOT want this ridiculous situation to happen to you.
I bought an F3 Savannah from Holly Hummel in late 2013. I had been really interested in buying a Savannah for years and I finally decided to indulge. I asked her many questions about the breed. She acted knowledgable but she never really said anything other than just quick and rude basic answers. When I asked her about size, she told me my cat would be about 15-20lbs full grown. I write this now because I am very enraged. My cat is definitely full grown and people still mistake her for a kitten. She's a "whopping" 8 lbs. I will never buy from any people online again. There are very few Savannah breeders and she is a DISGRACE to the name. I hope nobody ever buys from her again. She keeps changing her company name because everybody hates her business. She's such an a** for selling me this cat. I love my cat. But I paid for the size and the breed. And I've got an 8lb fluffball.
She charged me ONE THOUSAND dollars for her. She is NOTHING like the breed in the way she acts. If I wanted a cat like this, I would have just adopted one from the shelter. AGAIN I love my cat, I wouldn't give her up for my money back now, but I just hate that she sits there and does this to people. I really hope you are reading this before you buy from her and hopefully change your mind about wasting your money on her.
