Short description
The Safari is one of the rarest and most expensive cat breeds. She is lively,persistent and has a distinct hunting instinct. She even tends to show territorial behavior. This breed is only recommended for experienced cat owners. She needs enough space and exercise, and should not be kept as an indoor-cat. If trained well she can become very human-oriented and cuddly.
This information is indicative and adheres to the breed standard. Each animal is an individual and has a personal character, as well as its own needs. Thus, a breed is not a guarantee of certain behaviors, etc.
