Serval Cat Breeder and Lifelong Mentor – Donna MeChel Whitaker with over 20 years of hands-on experience working with, caring for, and breeding serval cats, I am passionate about placing these incredible animals in truly prepared, loving homes. As the founder of The Serval Conservation and Education Refuge (TSCAER) and a dedicated advocate through my educational outreach, I combine breeding with rescue, rehabilitation, and lifelong support for serval owners. Servals are stunning, athletic wild cat’s native to the African savannas—known for their long legs, large ears, spotted coats, and remarkable leaping ability. They typically weigh 20–40 pounds, stand about 21–24 inches at the shoulder, and can live 15–20+ years in captivity with excellent care. While they can form deep bonds with their humans when properly socialized, they are not domestic cats. They retain strong wild instincts, high energy, a powerful prey drive, and specific needs for large secure enclosures, specialized diet, enrichment, and veterinary care. Ownership is heavily regulated: it’s illegal in many U.S. states and requires permits or licenses in others—always verify your local, state, and any HOA laws first. If you’re seriously considering a serval companion and live in an area where it’s legal, you’ve found a knowledgeable resource. I prioritize producing the healthiest, best-socialized kittens possible through careful genetics, early handling, exposure to household sounds/people/pets, and positive experiences from day one. My kittens receive comprehensive veterinary care, including vaccinations, deworming, health screenings, and genetic testing where applicable. What sets my program apart is the free, ongoing mentorship I provide—before, during, and long after you take your kitten home. I personally guide you through:

This thorough preparation ensures a smoother transition for the kitten, reduces stress, and helps prevent common challenges that lead to rehoming in the exotic cat community. I carefully match each kitten to the right family based on lifestyle, experience level, and home setup—no impulse decisions here. If you’re committed to providing a lifetime home and want a true partner in this journey, reach out. I’m here to answer questions, share real insights from decades in the field, and help you succeed.Contact me today:
