INFORMATION
The Abyssinian is a medium
size cat with a short-ticked coat. They should appear alert, lithe and
muscular, standing on tippy toes. The head is a rounded wedge with large
ears, the eyes are almond shaped green, gold or hazel. The coat should have
a lustrous sheen and be resilient to the touch.
They are known for their
high activity level, also they are affectionate, active and playful,
retaining their playfulness long after kitten-hood. They are extremely
devoted, loyal and loving to their humans.
