Getting my Savannah Cat with Holly was such a pleasant experience. She is super professional, her cattery is world-class, and very clean, and the kitten is more than I could have ever hoped for. My kitten, Jazmyn, is very intelligent, playful, and social. She gets along with my miniature Australian shepherd wonderfully, and everyone who meets her falls in love with her. I take her for walks on the harness and we can barely walk a few feet without someone wanting to see her or pet her. She is beautiful and has perfect posture. She acts like a little princess, and she is one!? Holly was patient and very easy to work with while we were making our decision. She is so knowledgeable and helpful. We even got to see some rheas while we were there. Holly helped me pick the perfect kitten, and Jazmyn has bonded so well to me. I am so thankful. These cats are top-notch and worth every single penny. I would not go anywhere else for a savannah cat. These cats are truly stunning creatures. I am sure we will be back soon. ? Thanks, Holly!

These guys know what they are doing. Hands down the pros of their industry. This is our Savannah Cat F2 Chewbacca and he is perfect. He is healthy, intelligent, beautiful, adventurous and simply perfect! He is our child and everything that comes with it. Thank you guys for creating such a perfect boy for us :)

I've been looking for a long time to get a Savannah cat and decided on this place the owner, Holly was very professional and informative with all my questions and you can see the pride of ownership and professionalism she puts into her cattery from the time you pull up to the building and walk into the doctors like office and the cleanliness of this cattery. If you've been thinking about acquiring a savannah kitten, I highly recommend Select exotics for your new savannah kitten.

The most beautiful, well socialized, and healthy cat I have ever had! So much care and attention is given to these cats. My F3 male is fabulous and not only an amazing companion cuddling cat but he's super trainable. The owner Holly is kind and attentive to any questions and support to make sure many very specific supportive directions are provided for the best care and incorporation of your new cat into your home. Would highly, highly recommend.

They have lovely kittens here and are ready and willing to help you through the process of caring for them when you bring one home.

This is the worst possible breeder that only cares about financial gains and nothing more. They took our money and never returned it even though they promised to apply the deposit to another litter. The failed to respond to our emails over the years. DO NOT DEAL WITH THEM UNDER ANY SITUATION. They will take your money and disappear.

The failed to respond to our emails over the years. DO NOT DEAL WITH THEM UNDER ANY SITUATION, especially if ordering a kitten overseas, look elsewhere. They will take your money and disappear. Extremely disappointing because we thought they were a reputable and trustable breeder.

Have had a marbled male f3 Select Exotic since 2011, the phrase "you get what you pay for" couldn't apply more strongly. These are no BS cats in both appearance and temperament; easily trained to walk on a leash and even, with a little effort, to go number one in the sink/tub/toilet instead of the litter box. If you are looking for a Savannah Cat you have found your breeder. Make the trip and drop the dimes, you won't regret it. Holly and Dale have a unique understanding of the breeding process.

I love my F3 male we got. He is absolutely beautiful and has fantastic features!!! He is the coolest, well behaved, intelligent cat I have ever had. While they charge more than some breeders, u get what u pay for.

This is the nation’s longest serving breeder of Savannah cats, with a fabulously clean, well designed facility. See the virtual tour pics. This is a labor intensive business, coupled with a challenging breeding process. Breeding hybrids is NOT like breeding domestic to domestic. Holly and Dale’s kittens are TOP quality, with beautiful coats, physical structure and sweet, lovable and confident temperaments. They are worth EVERY penny! I disagree strongly with the one star review!! I suspect the $4.000 price tag on an F4 was either for a male or an exceptional female. Holly and Dale know what they are doing when evaluating kittens for price. I was offended by that poor review and that’s why I’m taking the time to set the record straight. I live in Utah, far from Illinois, yet I’m going back for seconds, notwithstanding the distance. I place a great amount of confidence in Holly and Dale and their expertise in continually producing TOP QUALITY Savannah kittens! Thanks Holly and Dale!

Overcharging for their pet kittens. $4k for a F4 non breeder is price gauging.

We were lucky enough to get our Savannah baby girl there nine years ago (already!) Her doctor can't even believe she is that old, as she looks and acts like a toddler, still. The sweetest, smartest, and craziest cat we've known. Select Exotics made this adoption not only possible, but a wonderful experience!

They are a great family and know their cats. I bought my first Savannah from them about 12 years ago. Just picked up two more lovelies. I am very happy!
