If you are searching online for the best Savannah cat bed, you have probably already noticed not all cat beds are made for this particularly long, tall and substantial cat breed!
The Savannah cat breed is known to have very particular care requirements. In other words, these cats know what they like!
This includes sleeping preferences, which makes your choice of beds for Savannah cats an important part of helping your new kitty feel completely comfy and at home.
In this article, we introduce you to some of the best Savannah cat bed options to consider as you welcome your new Savannah cat into your family!
Savannah cat bed size
Savannah cats on average can be considerably taller and longer than your average housecat.
Of course, hybrid generation (F1, F2, F3 and so forth) will influence your cat’s height, length and weight, but the average Savannah will still stand head and shoulders above most domestic kitties.
This means you will want to give your Savannah extra room to stretch out and relax when it is time for bed, even if your kitty prefers to curl up into a ball for sleep.
Of course, Savannah cats are known for preferring to sleep with their owners, and if this is the case, you may just want to have a suitable Savannah cat bed on hand in case your Savannah cat changes her mind!
Savannah cats can also be slow to mature, taking up to three years to reach their full adult height, length and weight.
To avoid having to buy another Savannah cat bed as your cat grows up, you may want to factor her estimated adult size into your considerations.
F1 Savannah cat size
The typical F1 Savannah cat will stand up to 19 inches tall (paw to shoulder).
You can expect a full adult length of up to 25 inches.
A full adult male Savannah F1 cat can weigh up to 25 pounds.
F2 Savannah cat size
An F2 adult Savannah cat will stand up to 18 inches (paw to shoulder) and will measure up go 24 inches long.
An adult F2 Savannah male can weigh up to 24 pounds.
Females tend to be quite a bit lighter, weighing up to 16 pounds.
F3 Savannah cat size
An F3 Savannah will typically stand up to 17 inches tall (paw to shoulder) and can reach 20 inches long.
Weight-wise, an F3 male can weigh up to 19 pounds and a female may weigh up to 13 pounds.
F4+ Savannah cat size
An F4 or later (F5, F6, et al) full-grown Savannah cat will look markedly different than the F1, F2 or F3 hybrid cats, with a body composition, shape, height and length much more like the typical domestic cat.
Height-wise, these cats may still stand up to 17 inches tall (paw to shoulder).
Savannah cat sleeping style
If you have previous experience caring for felines, you have probably witnessed how different cats can have very different sleeping styles!
Just like you have your preferences for how you like to fall asleep, your cat will have his preferences as well.
Some cats love to stretch out and sleep while other cats will curl into a little ball to go to sleep.
You will want to choose a Savannah cat bed that will help your kitty feel welcome to curl up or stretch out as he may prefer!
