Gold or green. |
Overall Appearance |
Abyssinians, often called Abys for short,
still retain the jungle look of felis lybica, the African wildcat
ancestor of all domestic cats. Their slim legs are quite powerful
and they can jump great distances with ease |
Personality |
Abyssinians are highly energetic, active
and sometimes fearless in their pursuits. Although Abys are affectionate,
they would rather play with you than sit on your lap. |
