The first thing I would suggest is never throw or put the cat out. Instead I would have a time out area like a bathroom. Letting the cat know that something hurts you like saying ouch at the time he is biting would be enough. Once you sense that he is getting over stimulated you should stop...

That's just it. Trapping the cat is just part one in your exercise. The boy is probably whole. I'm not sure what I would do but I would certainly give serious though to trap - neuter - then release. Most likely he would stop spraying everywhere. Possibly start going and hanging out around his...

Feline acne can be very painful for the cats. There are a few sources for getting it. I think the most popular ones are bacteria in / around the food bowl. I normally use the ceramic food bowls and not the plastic ones. Another source would be too much oil in the food. Seyah never had any issues...

... And Seyah mine

I think the face that he was trying to communicate with you about touching him is a good sign. As a 4 year old male they sometimes do not let just anyone touch them. Not until they get to know them. Kind of like kissing on the first date.  One of my boys, Smacky, when I first got him he would...

Seyah would always eat his prey. He never killed anything unless he was hungry and prepared to munch!. He loved mice and the moles and would generally play with them first then came din-din. After his first rabbit I don't think he ever turned back. Rabbit was his favorite. The first one he got...

There is an off chance that she may not be pregnant. Cats can control when they actually drop the egg, controlled ovulation. Many times they do not get pregnant the first time in the cycle they have sex but when they have it the 2nd or 3rd time. The act of having sex generally will cause the egg...

Seyah really did not have a bad side but he really did not like to have blood drawn. He never hurt anyone except I got bit about half dozen times in the first 6 months. Nothing too bad. Once I was breaking up a fight between him and a rescue. I always considered his color as Super Cool not just...

When I first got Seyah there really wasn't anything else like him. Back in 2005 there were not that many F2's around. He also had the dark mysterious and wild look , people just had to do a second take on him. There are larger cats now but at the time he is about as big as they came. Trust me...

Make sure they are testing for giardia and tri trich. Those 2 are commonly missed in just fecal floats. At least ask the vet if they looked for those 2. Both parasites look very similar under the microscope. Both are easy to catch with giardia being most common.  As far as cat food goes. I do...

OK here he is see if this works or not Seyah:

In general it is more or less safe. The only recommendation I would have is make sure they are current on their vaccines. Make sure they have the Rabies Vaccine and the Leukemia vaccine. The only other thing that I worry about is they tend to get parasites more. Giardia is pretty easy to get...

Thanks for the welcome. I normally do not worry about the sex of the kittens, just want them to all be healthy and happy and well behaved. One thing for sure it seems they dont have them when you want them to have the litter.  Leonard D.  spottedlove savannahs lifeatthesharpend productions

Is there a way to embed a blog entry? From time to time I write in my blog column and tend to share it. I'm not sure how I would go about doing that here. Is there a tutorial on how to do it correctly? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Leonard D. spotted love savannahs   

Other than folklore, nothing concrete, but it is said that breeding near the beginning  of the cycle versus the end of the cycle will enhance the chances of males or female. Not sure which end of the cycle or which sex.  For Savannah breeders boy are generally more sought after and the earlier...
