"Only a few meters from her, out jumped a Serval and raced away. We then saw another eight melanistic (black) Servals over the two days we spent on the moorlands. Melanism is predicted to occur at a higher percentage at higher altitudes in vertebrates, but the ratio seems little different with Augur Buzzards (which also has melanistic individuals) at this altitude and those at their lowest distribution"

   
The serval cat comes in three color phases. Melanistic RARE, brown  spotted which is the most common and White which could be born in the wild the same as white tigers  but all accounts  point towards cultivation in captivity..
The savannah comes in more colors as the domestic influence adds  a myriad of colors to the hybrid cross.
The black or melanistic serval is just that ,"black" and does have spotting  pattern like the goldens which is visible in strong sunlight.

Melanistic savannah kitten

 The white serval is a true white  similar to the white tigers this is  related to the albino gene. The savannah breeders have chosen to mimic this color by introducing the silver gene which is not the same .
The white savannahs and serval have a white coat with beautiful  spots at maturity .This color should not be mistaken with the domestic white  masking gene . Kittens are born virtually spotless and as they mature the spots appear clearer .

This is  the newest kitten born. Dunkin lives with Marie and goes everywhere with her .

Here is Isis our first white female. .They are few in numbers and quite rare.

She was born pure white and I have hand raised her from birth.

6 weeks old her pattern is starting to show

10 weeks old

Although she has "red eye" in this picture she has the most beautiful blue eyes I have ever seen.

12 weeks old as you can see her spots are arriving.

8 weeks old.

Being the white savannahs are not considered acceptable with the TICA registry if we produce any more white savannahs they will be available to approved pet homes.
Isis  will remain here with us. We are smitten with her beauty.
