This Journey Wouldn’t Have Been Possible Without Yo:

Due to Covid-19 and other unforeseen circumstances, it is with a heavy heart that we have decided to bring our breeding program to an end. We have dedicated our lives to these wonderful creatures for the past eight years and we want to thank each and every one of you for making that possible. Having the opportunity to work with such amazing animals day in and day out has brought so much joy to our lives and we are forever grateful for those moments. We have enjoyed watching this breed grow to what it is today and hope our fellow breeders will continue to make it wonderful.

We will continue to keep our website available to provide clients with a substantial amount of information about this extraordinary breed and to continue to educate those still seeking knowledge. Not only is our site packed with information but we also want to keep the A1Savannahs Legacy alive by keeping all of our past cats and photo galleries accessible for viewing.

We want to thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for this wonderful opportunity. 

— Martin and Amanda Engster


A Whole New
A1Savannahs: 

A1Savannah is please to announce all new ownership and staff members in September of 2013.

Our goal is to provide the best customer service possible and the highest quality cats available. 

Our cattery is USDA licensed, registered with TICA as a preferred breeder and accredited by the Feline Conservation Federation. 


A Bit About Us: 

A1Savannahs, formerly New Horizon Bengals, was founded by Joyce Sroufe. 

Joyce started breeding Savannah Cats in the late 1980's and started to register first litters in 1994. She is well known among exotic cat owners and breeders as the original founder of the Savannah Cat Breed and an expert in the breeding and care of exotic cats. 

After Joyce retired, the Stucki Family purchased and cared for the cats for about 10 years, improving the breed along the way. In September 2013, The Engster Family in partner with Dana Fulton have taken the role of improving and advancing the Savannah Breed. 


A1Savannahs in the World: 

A1Savannahs is specialized in helping new breeders all over the world to get started with their breeding programs. A1 Savannahs continues to mentor the already experienced breeders and hope that you can benefit from the convenience of choosing a kitten closer to your home.

We are helping our customers step by step with building suitable living spaces for the cats. We provide tips and tricks for the best breeding results and we are helping with questions about raising, evaluating and selling their kittens into responsible homes.
