HYBRID EXOTIC CAT COMING TO YOUR TOWN

We hope to be the first Savannahs breeder in Asian region. Our family are cat's lover and we dedicated our simple life just to be around our cats. Our Savannahs will join our cattery by the end of 2011 stage by stage and hopefully, we'll have a few F3, F4 and SBT's next year. We have very close relationship with established breeders from US and UK, thanks to them we manage to get their prized and exceptional savannahs breeders.

Overseas testing surcharge - AUD $110

Excluding AUD $209.09 Nipah virus test, the special box needed to purchase to store the serum and the FedEx charges to Australia.

Only the Nipah virus test has to be done in CSIRO, Australia. The rest can be done in the Singapore lab."


Another user suggests an alternative for the RNATT test:

"Regarding the RNATT test, I did it at the Shah Alam government vet clinic.
They charged only RM $20 for each blood sample and RM $48 to insert a microchip into my dog.

The blood serum was sent to Biobest Laboratories in the UK. 

They charge 32.50 GBP per test. 
 I bought a plastic container with clips on the side and sponge for about RM $10 at Tesco to store the serum tubes. 

The FedEx charges to Biobest cost me RM $117.55."
