How big is a full-grown F3 Savannah cat supposed to get? I'm worried mine's not growing enough.

I’ve been a bit worried because my F3 Savannah cat doesn't seem to be growing as much as I expected. It's been about 10 months now, and he still looks a bit small compared to what I’ve read online. He’s active and playful, so I’m not sure if there’s really a problem, but I can’t help feeling anxious that something might be off. I've been giving him a good diet, as recommended, but I can’t shake this concern about his size.

Answer

Your F3 Savannah cat's smaller size at 10 months could be normal and nothing to worry about, especially if he's active and healthy.

  • Monitor any changes in appetite or behavior.
  • Regular check-ups with the vet to ensure appropriate growth and health.
  • Ensure your cat receives a balanced diet suited for its specific needs.

It's important to remember that individual growth rates can vary, and not all Savannah cats will grow to the same size. Environmental factors, genetics, and diet all play a role in your cat's growth. As long as your cat is playful and exhibits no signs of illness, he might just be reaching his adult size a bit differently than expected. However, if you're still concerned, consulting with a veterinarian can provide peace of mind by ensuring there are no underlying health issues.
