EDITED TO ADD!!
ITS HOT AND IM TIRED… i am not answering crazy questions about the servals… IF you do not know what they are do your research!!!! If you’re truly interested in one and have done your common research i am more than happy to answer any questions you have to provide them a great home…. They are NOT cheap.. they are not just normal kittens… they do not wanna cuddle with your kids.. they are wild cats!! They are exotics! I’m not being ugly but if you were on my end getting 1200 messages from people you would be annoyed too…

The baby servals are going to be looking for a new address soon. PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!!! If you have to ask me what they eat or if you have to have a license for them, then you have not done your research and i simply just won’t answer you… I’m willing to help and answer questions but you need to understand the basics before even considering one!!
