** update thank you everyone for your interest in Momo. She has now found her new home. **Introducing Momo to our savannah rescue community. We are seeking a special owner and we know you are out there! Have you ever owned a cat that was distrusting to the point of acting scared in your home ? have you ever worked to help a street rescue cat calm down and become suitable for a family home ? Have you ever had a cat that liked to spend their time with the other household cats more than with you? If you can answer YES ! to any of these questions you might be the perfect home for Momo.

Momo means "dumpling" and she may have been a dumpling at some point in her life but now she 8 yrs young and is long and lean and elegant.

Momo is a beautiful F2 Savannah so has some of the serval quirks from her grandfather, and one of them being that she is reserved about bonding to new people. Due to unfortunate circumstances (owner health) this is the 4th home for Momo. Please be her last home ! When she was young and impressionable her owners were unable to spend the time required to bond with her and that is why she has grown up to be this aloof beauty.

She is not suitable for a home with active young children looking for a cuddly savannah pet that can be walked on a leash and dressed up by the children. She is looking for a quiet home that doesn't have a lot of people coming and going. She would be a lovely (although distant) companion for someone working from home.

At times she will engage with fishing rod toys and have a game with you. She also likes to be in the room with you especially if you are preparing dinner ! She likes to have a conversation with humans and she enjoys the companionship of other cats (with proper slow introductions) she would probably be ok with a non threatening mellow dog in her new home, but again she will need slow introductions to any other pets in the home.

Momo has clean litter habits and enjoys a variety of foods including raw, canned and kibble. She doesn't need a large area to live in, but she does love high places. She will always choose the top of the scratching post or try to get on top of the kitchen cabinets and watch the household from there. She also enjoys watching the outdoors by sitting at the window. Momo may never return your affection, but with patience, you will probably see some improvement in her trust levels over time, don’t take it personally if she doesn’t warm up to you.
