This "hybrid" creature is not a good look and is on the loose in London.

Falcon?

So in other words there’s a monster loose in the UK who’s name ISN’T Boris?

It's weird looking. It has a cat's face, with an extra bit stuck on top.

But you can see that, lol.

I think it's cute.

Aww he’s adorable. We should start capturing them for domestication. I’d love to have one as a pet.

‘E tugged on ‘er jumper right sharp.

"DL cute"

I disagree that it's "not a good look". Looks great. And face it, there are plenty of domestic cats that lunge at people. Cats are bastards. Might as well be mauled by one that really looks the business, than by something called Mr Fluffy.

I reckon the only “mauling” that thing does is on rodents and other small varmints.

If we had one of these back in my day it would have changed everything

The person that owns the cat might not want it back. I knew an older woman who bought one of these cats and it destroyed her house, like $20,000 destroyed. They are apparently highly intelligent and if not constantly stimulated just tear things apart. She gave it back to the breeder she brought it from. Apparently the 1:2 variety is harder to handle so the ones most breeders sell now are 1:4 or 1:8 Serval to make them more docile. The size decreases as more domestic cat is mixed in so it’s a trade off.

The picture is of a serval, not a savannah cat. Savannah cats are only marginally larger than an average domestic cat and the dumb bitch in the story is exaggerating for attention.

Are we quite sure this isn't Will Poulter on the prowl? OP's photo certainly looks like him.

I love small domestic cats, but I sure as hell don’t want a serval or Savannah cat. Those things look scary as hell!😮

That's some major pussy!

Savannah Cats are actually pretty cute, unique-looking creatures. There was a single Savannah Cat store that I knew in a fancy part of Corona, CA back around 09 or so... it was cool to watch their lithe bodies glide across the display window of the store, but I don't think anyone bought them and the store eventually closed down. I guess the novelty died down in general because I don't hear about them anymore. Seems like the upkeep on them's too much and they're no longer worth it.

Corona has "fancy parts?" News to me.

cat has LA face and Oakland booty

The poor thing in the OP's post is out looking for its chin.

We would shoot it on sight before it kills any more birds or other innocent little citizens.

Wikipedia says Savannah cats are as tame as domestic cats and that they have many beloved dog-like traits, such as being loyal to the owner and following him around.

Didn't Neiman Marcus sell these in their Christmas catalog years ago?

It's getting dangerous out there, with the Surrey Puma and Essex Lion!!

Hayley Bieber must have left it there.

Keep your fucking cats indoors.

In America, a lot of people have guns. This freakture would probably have been dealt with by now.

Also in America, there are many animals that[bold] can KILL YOU.[/bold] This story would not freak them out.

In London this is not what people/we are used to.

It sort of suffers from Llama face.

Don't forget the Essex Serpent!

Check out the worried Doctor Mom. She is a anti-aging specialist and looks like she zapped herself a few too many times.

She actually shot a video of it. It's in The Sun.

R17, they are now illegal in a lot of places.

The cat she saw wasn't as freaky looking as OP's photo.

I was interested in Bengal cats until I saw some at a pet shop. They are unbelievably active, bouncing in the cage as if on speed. Some seem practically uncontrollable.

I think it's cute. We had our own feline on the loose a few days ago in a small town in France, it caused quite a ruckus!

Awwww! Looks just like my Bootsie Gumdrop!

Now, that’s what I call a bitch cat!

All about Savannah cats.

The cat is cute but why did these breeders name their kid after a porn studio??

It's is NOT cute, it's nasty looking...and dangerous.

I suspect the poor cat was frightened by crazy anti-aging mom and her brood of strange-looking muppets.

[quote]The animal, believed to be a £4,000 Savannah cat

So much money? I'm surprised there aren't breeding factories all over Britain.

I don't love it

Look out, a Chita's loose!!!

I would NOT want to be the one to clean out that litter box!🤮

Dr Nirdosh go fuck yourself and deflate your lips while you’re at it. Go, kitty, go!

We are concerned about the helpless birds and other precious little citizens that are being tortured and killed by outdoor cats of all kinds.

In Australia or NZ they have the right idea - the have put a bounty on them!

R25 Made me laugh. Yes, apparently Bieber shelled out $35K for two of these hybrid cats for Hailey. I think people who get these as pets are creepy.

R41 you describe yourself well.

[quote]Savannah cats are as tame as domestic cats and that they have many beloved dog-like traits, such as being loyal to the owner and following him around.

There are lots of alley cats that do that too. Domestic cats come in all types, for every aloof one (and there are a lot of them) there are lots of 'follow me everywhere' cats.

What kind of an asshole keeps a wild animal as a pet?

All cats are wild animals.

They will tear your house, and you, apart in minutes. While playing.

Get a dog, you'll be happier.

R54 lol dramatic much?? Of course dogs have never been known to hurt people.

This cat is like DLers -- harmless to most in real life but with an active dislike of fraus with small, annoying children.

R54, not dramatic at all and sorry to shock your tender sensibilities. The truth about these hybrids is being hidden so folks will buy one at a huge ticket price. It's also cruel to the mother cat who is typically a short hair domestic, as the gestation for these animals exceeds the normal pregnancy gestatation for housecats. Either the kits are born prematurely, or the mother dies during birth - neither option is desirable and horrible breeders are willing to abuse the mothers in this way.

Finally, those little kittens grow up with wild instincts to piss mark their territory and are like a large housecat on steroids when it comes to activity levels. "Like a dog" isn't an exaggeration in terms of their extreme needs; so unless you're willing to sacrifice your peace and quiet, your furniture and your sanity, don't go there. Adopt a regular housecat.

So many bitter jelly bitches on this thread. I KNOW I look good .

Ugly. Don't ever crossbreed again, people.
