Reviews and Complaints

I bought a male f4 Savannah cat from Jason bout 8 months ago and he is very social talks a lot plays a lot after.. like after a month after I got him he did get sick but I did not have shots yet but when I took him the vet they gave him all his vaccinations and made sure he did not have and viruses or other such cat medical problems.. I haven't had a problem with my boy I love my Savannah... Jason gave a good deal with out TICA papers but that's how i wanted I did not want to register my cat through TICA yet... Me and couple of my friends bought a three Savannahs from Jason and we have not had any problems with our cats.. Jason told us what to field them like no food with grain all high protein foods and Jason text me a list of what I should feed them.. Like I said my boy is very social loves my daughter they get along great he love visitors that come to my house he is very fearless not scared of anything even runs up on little dogs I have to catch him sometimes cause he have the dog scared... He eats good everyday love to go outside he actually talks at the door when wants to go outside... I have owned domestic cats before and I can tell the difference between my Savannah cat and a domestic cat I used to own... My Savannah cat likes to bite and not scratch like the domestic cat like to scratch.. He does have wild instincts by the way he likes to creep up on as if he's hunting for something... so y'all that's hating on Rare breed exotic please stop hating.. Jason treated me very good and sold me and my friends healthy cats... yes he did not meet me at house for I can see the mom and dad of my cat but he met at Arden mall in Sacramento California which is not that far from where I stay in Vallejo California... When I met Jason he told me don't pick your cat let it come to you and that's how I got my Savannah cat Timmy.. I would be buying another cat from him just can't rite now cause I have a new born on the way... Son please don't let these complaints discourage you from buying a cat from Jason cause he does have healthy cats... Like what pet you buy as a baby doesn't get sick dogs get sick when there till you get there vaccination... THANK YOU JASON FOR MY BEAUTIFUL SAVNNAH CAT...

This review was written by Bobby Threadgill not Dixie . All emails are Fake and Fraudulent and created by Bobby who's cattery Bella Familia is known to USDA FOR ILLEGAL AND FRAUDULENT activity. They sent forged papers from the Tiger preservation to usda to try and illegally obtain a license for lions and tigers and servals and lynx to be raised in a family housing division. He was also caught for having illegal cats die while in his possession. Just Google his name and cattery it's everywhere. Furthermore Dixie's own husband divorced her over being involved in scams like this they ran in others then just me to EXTORT cash and free pets so they could re sale them. She has since then turned to a life of drugs and drama. Once again just look her up on Facebook and you'll see plenty of proof. She's been banned from all well known cat groups online. Where as we have thousands of happy followers and customers. ENOUGH SAID...THIS ENTIRE REVIEW IS FRAUDULENT...MY ATTORNEY WILL BE CONTACTING THIS REVIEW BOARD SOON. RAREBREED29@SBCGLOBAL.NET anyone with any other info on Bella Familia or Dixie please respond and forward me and this scam site with your facts.

This review board needs to contact the woman on here that Dixie also scammed and gave my info to. And get her side of the story. Then look up Dixie online who has been banned from every cat group on Facebook for these scams as well as was divorced by her husband and has since turned into a life of drugs and full-time drama. Then try looking into Rare Breed Exotics online who has tens thousands of followers between their five groups combined and hundreds of HAPPY past buyers and current. Yet ONLY this ONE FAKE story. I'm currently takitalking with attorneys about the possibilities of how many possible customers this may have cost me over the years. I will be looking into owning this company if they don't have$80k to$250k for me once demanded in court. Can't CAN'T believe this fake review is still posted to the public.

Dixie didn't even write this review. Bobby Threadgill wrote this slander. Because he lost several buyers to Rare Breed Exotics. This entire review site is ### and let's anyone write anything. Contact the USDA and inquire about Bobby and his cattery Bella Familia and how he forged documents from the tiger preservation to try and illegally get a license for his guys illegal scams and possession of many servals that died while in his care. Just Google his name and watch the reports that come up on that piece of ###.

Considering dwaite12 (Dixie Waite) sold me a sick f5 who was born in October knowing she had sick cats in the household is disgusting. I am making it a mission to make sure nobody buys from her. Not only did she not make it right with a new kitten or refund but she played off like she would. After she said she would test her cats and get me a replacement she deleted me off Facebook and ignored my messages asking about her cats results. Now I am either blocked or she is a coward and deleted her Facebook account which was our means of communication. I do have a lawyer and I will not rest until she gets the karma she has coming for her.

Unfortunately FIP seems to be so much more common from the middle of america to the East coast and especially in NY and FL . That we have began contemplating not even doing business with buyers from those areas and turing them away . When you find that more often then not in Savannah groups when your hear of FIP its always that the dead pets are on the east coast and that if they came the the west coast the entire rest of the litters are SAFE and fine in their new homes MINUS the ones that end up on the east coast having issues always popping up . The picture begins to get really clear . I personally know of several owners of Savannahs even 3 F2's this past year and an F1 and several other lower generations have all pased away in the past year on the east coast .

Stapnanie Camusso, Really sorry to hear about your experience with such a horrible breeder . Dixie tried creating this negative review about my business full if lies and deciet only to have it backfire on her since then and turn into a place that others are finding and using to realize how many people she has screwed over / ripped off and ran this scam on . I found 3 other breeders she did the samething to as she has done with me . Along with countless customers and the toll is always cont. to rise . She was litterally getting FREE cats from 4 breeders at once and blaming all of us for them being sick . Only to later find out she was taking in rescues and reselling them for profit . Its a well known fact that the east coast is plagued with this FIP and that over 80% of any feline that passes through the rescues/humane societes or even just from breeders from the midwest to east coast all test positive for Corona virus which leads to FIP . She must still be trying to resale rescues at the same time as breeding Savannahs and running other scams . Its the only thing that makes since as to why she is still spreading FIP . This is now moving into three straight years of this Dixie having this FIP in her lines even though she has had all her breeders DIE more then once and gets new ones and starts over . She must also be keeping old cat trees etc. or something for them to all keep getting it . Or she is just still not realizing that she is getting healthy Savannah's from other breeders sick by taking in rescues from infested/diseased humane sociaties and rescues etc ., I'm REALLY SORRY to hear about your sad 3 yr. old daughter and would LOVE to be able to help . I will message you back personally and see if i can be of any assistance with mending your little girls broken heart . Thanks for taking the time to share your story about this Dixie Waite .

We also bought a cat from Dixie Waite. We payed $800 cashiers check to her only to wait another month to get out "F5" Savannah. Not only did he come infested with worms but died shortly after due to FIP, not only do we have the autopsy report to prove it but an extremely devastated 3 year old daughter. This woman is a joke and is now asking us for money to test her cats and potentially replace it from another litter. I don't wish this upon any other family. Especially one with small children. We bought a heartache from this lady that also did not come with TICA papers we were supposed to get. DO NOT BUY FROM HER.

#1 Dixie Waite (who has posted her under the alias “C”)was supposed to be a business partner and was given these cats on loan and NEVER even paid for them. #2 This woman lied to me about having a clean and safe home and being done with taking in rescues from the humane society and animal shelters. I had told her after her first outbreak of diseases in her home months prior to her ever having any pets from me, that she had to stop taking in rescues and getting show cats sick or I would not work with her . #3 The east coast is plagued with this Coronavirus and FIP in shelters and breeding facilities and it is near nonexistent by comparison on the west coast and in California where I am from. Simple reading online vet reports studies posted online say that over 80% of all animals passing through a humane society or rescue on the east coast end up testing positive for Coronavirus which leads to FIP once it takes hold or mutates. #4 Her husband who was on this thread commenting as DAVE was lied to and mislead by his wife Dixie. Over 6 months ago Dixie was caught too many times in lies by her own husband and he DIVORCED her behind these lies and others. After scamming several breeders along with her own mother in law, Dave realized the truth and divorced her. Since that time she has been caught in several other lies and scams with other breeders online. I don’t want to begin name dropping due to legal issues, but am more than happy to tell the entire story for anyone who would like to contract me directly to hear it. #5 I can give you references and buyers to contact who purchased kittens from this same time frame and litters who are all very happy with their healthy kittens and happy pets. I can also explain better on the phone how this Dixie has went on to pull this same scam with other breeders and receive free kittens and or money back to not create bad publicity for them with her lies. She is a CRIMINAL and is currently under investigation along with her partner in crime Bobby ( Robert Threadgill ) (Bella Famillia cattery ) for other scams like this they have ran on other breeders as well as FRAUDULENTLY tampering with paperwork and emails between buyers and sellers much like she has done here with FABRICATED emails from me that only began once I said NO MORE FREE kittens and told her she really needed to figure out what was going on at her house and with all the sickness . There has been paperwork sent to USDA for licensing by these people for exotic cats that is also now under investigation as they forged signatures from other preservation centers and lied about hours worked to obtain exotic cat permits. #6 I am more than happy to discuss this situation in greater detail with callers /prospective buyers if you just give me a call. At this point I cannot comment here further as we are seeking criminal prosecution. [protected]
