Drella, our F2, is one of the smarter cats I've known, but Billy, an F1, is clearly smarter. He figures something out after just seeing it happen one time. Today, something really freaky happened that I'm convinced was not a coincidence. Billy was hanging out on the floor in our loft while Randy and I talked. I said something about Billy acting squirrelly and Billy immediately took off down the stairs, returning in about 20 seconds with his stuffed squirrel, which he dropped at Randy's feet. OMG. Are they really that smart?

Billy continues to grow bigger every day. He's six months old now and about nine pounds. He's a stunningly beautiful cat with such dramatic markings! We love his big round black spots and his kissable black nose. Billy is manifesting more Serval qualities as he comes into his adolescence. He'll jump up to any height in our home, even onto places where our F2 fears to go. The only sound we've heard him make besides loud purring is a bird-like chirp. Billy is starting to assert himself with with our other Savannahs. When they're play-fighting, Billy even does the snake head maneuver! He's by far the most affectionate and people-oriented of our cats, sharing his cuddle time evenly between Randy and me. Recently, Randy taught Billy to play fetch with a small tennis ball. It took about two minutes for Billy to learn. Now, many times a day, our little puppy-cat comes trotting up with a ball in his mouth, ready to play. He's an amazing cat in every way!
Here's another picture I took today. You can see that Billy's face is starting to look a little more mature. He continues to become even more striking as he's maturing.
Billy has been coming into his own as a water kitty. Last night he decided to take the big dive into a sink-full of water. He ended up soaked.
Otis is awesome!
His never ending need to spread chaos and destruction brings a tear to our eye everyday.
We really love the little Nimrod - he weighs 11lbs now.
He and our australian shepard Tesla love each other and spend countless hours playing what I call 'grab ass'.
Whatever tires them out I am in favor of! All the best Pat and Suzanne
In addition to being called Otis we have nicknamed him Captain Chaos
He realy isn't mad about getting wet, it was when we turned the water off that upset him!
Nyah, F-1 Savannah, and her best cat friend Gandalf.
