Savannah cats

["Bob Moffatt" <>]

The value of a pet may initially  have "future owners being watchful as to 
where they let their beloved kitties go." but the price of such imports 
would certainly drop once the cat sp. became established in the pet trade - 
the white cockatiels that the aviculture industry produced in the early 
1970's were initially worth more than the equivalent of todays $5-10K (and 
they were the subject of avicultural theft!) when first released by the one 
breeder - now they available for $15 and regularly escaping to feed the 
local peregrine falcons and probably domestic cats.
