It's been a while since I've updated you on Montu, our
year old F2 Savannah boy. He's become our loving
'Monster' boy and is absolutely wonderful and
beautiful. I've attached a couple of pics.
Living on a farm, Montu has been exposed to a lot of
outdoor activity. He is funny about what he likes to
do, and what he doesn't. He doesn't climb trees, but
he loves to act the true savannah cat and crouch in
tall grass to ambush us when we walk by. The horses
are WAY to big to interest him, but there is no fear.
He simply walks around them to follow us.
Our sand
arena is a huge play box for all the cats. They go
with me at evening feed and run amuck in the sand.
Montu faithfully stays with me as I do the feed, just
like a dog would. When I'm done I go and sit on the
patio and he goes to play in the arena. He's so big
compared to our 'normal' cats, but he doesn't maul the
smaller cats, just torments them. He is definitely a
bathroom cat too. He loves showering with me, and
putting on makeup or doing hair is sometimes
impossible because he will get in the sink, and stay!
Our toilet paper is often found in very small chunks
strewn throughout the house. He tears into the rolls
with a vengeance.
His looks are very impressive. I've looked at many
F2's, and he looks more like everyone elses F1's. His
markings are spectacular. His oceli are not solid
white, but they are very strong and creamy. His
conformation is very much like a Serval. Long, very
powerful front legs, and a very strange looking pair
of back legs when he trots. There are times when we
catch him sitting very upright that he looks very,
very Serval. His ears and face show the Bengal the
most, I think. But there is Serval even in his face.
