My Abyssinian is the biggest lap-cat ever. Sleeps on my head, chest, etc throughout the night and he loves to be cradled.
I have an Abby and she is really affectionate. She loves to sleep on my lap, cuddle and get belly rubs. She also loves to be picked up by me, sometimes she even lift up her arms. She starts purring when I carry her around like a baby 😅
Most of the time she is very calm and doesn‘t like too much action. Of course she appreciates playtime but she‘s not demanding it all the time. She has access to my large balcony but in the winter time it‘s not that interesting to her.
She‘s very intelligent and knows a few tricks I‘ve tought her with clicker training.
Greetings from Germany ♥️
Heyy! May i ask where you got her? If you want to answer! I am considering one and do not know where to get it at, i dont wanna get scammed.
@@anitarexhepi5072 hey, ofcourse you can ask!
I got her from a private breeder in Nordrein-Westfalen (Germany).
Actually she wanted to keep this Aby, but she didn‘t get along with the other ones. She was already 3 years old when I adopted her.
I reccomend to visit the breeder a few times before you really adopt.
I've had Abyssinians since 1989 and what I hate about getting old is I don't think I'll get another when my two current
darlings pass. They are only 10 and 11 this year so I'll have them for a while longer. I love them so much that I can
hardly bear the thought of not having them. I do love all cats but there is something very special about the Aby. >^-^
Do they like to sleep on their owner's feet or lying next to their owner or on their owner's chest?
Can they be left alone in an apartment for 12-15 hours while a person is at work?
@@thomasashe2681 My little male, Archie, loves to lie next to my knees most of the time and at night
lies on top or next to me. My female, Phoebe, will occasionally but since Archie has the spot she just
sits nearby. Both love to give "head-butts" , face rubs and kisses. However, like people all cats are
different. Most of my Aby's weren't lap sitters. One did start lap sitting after she was 10yr old and did
so until she passed. All, even though they didn't sit on me were always near and had their eye on me.
I may not even been able to see them but they appeared and followed me when I was on the move.
They are THE most delightful creatures. When I went to purchase Archie, he picked me. He was only
9wk old but the other siblings weren't even paying any attention to me and he came over to interact and he
really was the affectionate little fellow he presented as a baby.
@@thomasashe2681 All cats should have a companion so that they won't be lonely if they have to be left all day. Almost all cats do like cat companions. I always worked at home so I had all day interaction with them. If by themselves they will sleep all day and keep you awake at night as will any cat . Of course,
the more time and affection you can give them, the more they will reciprocate but they are by nature of the
breed, very affectionate. They are precious companions. I love cats but these guys are really something and I actually feel blessed to have discovered them. Blessings, p
@@thomasashe2681 They are very dependant on their humans for entertainment and affection. They bond with people very heavily and require a lot of stimulation. If you're out of the house a lot they might not be the right breed for you. Ours follow us around like puppies and always want to be doing what we're doing or playing with us. One of ours gets so stressed out if we're gone for long that he'll overgroom.
They came from Ethiopia after all ancient Egypt and Ethiopia have relations
YES that! Now with genetic testing it is Ethiopia thus Abyssinian.
@thelandstromline testing SMH you are from Ethiopia too. Who the
Heaven isn't. Ethiopia is Africa wake up
I recently found one under my car and it's apparent that there's Abby in him
So beautiful and very intelligent. Affectionate as well.
One day i will have one, beautiful cat
I had a cat like this also 😊❤❤
Amazing information. Very professional 💞
Love this abyi
❌After researching all the different breeds of cats, I must say these look to be my favourite😸
Gorgeous & entertaining !!
I’m part of a cat club including a Sphynx & Maine Coon. So many interesting breeds!!
CATS ARE SO COOL !!
Beautiful babies
We have three of them and they are AMAZING
Cats very nice and very beautiful ❤️
Love this cat but sooooo expensive
Bello 😺
I'm on my second Abyssinian cat and their personalities are very strange, yet beautiful. Both leave me dead animals, seemingly as trophies, but both love to snuggle, but only on their own terms.
They're very independent, yet also needy. Basically, this breed is stupid.
If you have bad experiences that doesn't mean that this breed is stupid, they are amazing
@@dimkuch9519 Just because my two Abyssinians were stupid doesn't mean they weren't _also_ the two _best_ cats I've ever had. Squirrely, my first one, is one of the best cats I've ever had.
The other one still with me and I adore her, even though she's even dumb. Why are you upset that I absolutely _adore_ my stupid breed of cat? Just because they're dumb doesn't mean they aren't amazing.
The Abys are gorgeous cats to look at, actually they are considered one of the supermodels of the cat world but it stops there for they are also like a 2 year old toddler on a sugar high that you will have to deal with for the next 12 to 15 years but they are oh so lovable when "they" want to be. You will have to of course neuter/spay them (responsible breeders of purebred usually will make you sign a no breeding contract anyways) and please do not declaw them. A very good and very tall cat tree or two with several scratching posts plus quality interactive toys around your house or condo would be just fine to keep them and you happy. I would personally feed them a high protein, low carb , no grain diet and make sure to have at least one good sized, clean and low dust liter box per floor.
Also known as the silliest cat breed
They seem great but my home isn't big enough
In my experience, Abyssinian cats like to headbutt. Hard. Make your nose bleed hard.
Yes, my male can give some "knock your teeth out with your coffee cup head butts" so just be aware of the hyper affectionate
darlings.
sorry but she just described every cat ever lol
Thanks! I'm searching for a cat for me and my fam if anyone has any ideas for a cat that loves to cuddle ,not to energetic,is a lap cat, and can stay home for a few hours on its own. Please tell me!
Ooh Persian cat is a great choice then! Althought im not really recommend them since they have some kind of breathing issue but if ur fine with it then why not
Also if u have Persian cat you have to brush them daily and play with them atleast 10-20 minutes and if you have to go to school for hours i recommend buying or adopting 2 Persian at once so they can wait a bit longer
Birman. Angels in fur.
Definitely a ragdoll
Birman ragdoll hybrid probably, they are massive and great for cuddling
Abyssinian means Ethiopian
Little Ethiopian royal mini lions. They workd wide but the lions are omlybin ethioia africa
Pedigree Abys from legitimate and conscientious breeders require DNA testing of all their breeding cats. They focus on caring for the Health and Happiness of those Queens and Studs and Kittens in their homes. The cost of a well-cared-for and socialized Aby is MUCH more than what you have written and stated in this video. In the USA and Canada, a reputable breeder charges $2500-$3500 for a pet kitten. And don't think they are ripping you off, you pay for what you get. They genetically test all their cats, and they feed them the very best food for their health and growth. All kitties receive regular vet care. They do not overbreed queens, and all their breeding cats should be healthy and well cared for. You should expect your kitten to not come home before 14-16 weeks of age. You should also expect the breeder to have had the kittens given their core vaccine series and have been kept in a clean and healthy home environment, very well socialized, and naturally weaned. You should also expect the breeder to have the kittens spayed or neutered before they come home to you. You should not expect the breeder's home to be overrun with cats or their smell. Abys are very clean and if a breeder's home smells like cat urine and fecal matter, RUN. Kittens should come with a genetic health guarantee, they should not come sick. You should expect to have a face-to-face transaction and never pay for something you have not seen in real life. Besides websites like CFA or TICA breedlist.com lists only reputable breeders. I am a breeder in CFA and to help people avoid being scammed online I have refused to take deposits. Because of the scams and mills and pet brokers out there that can con you, I highly suggest you find a breeder for an Abyssinian that doesn't take deposits and only does face-to-face transactions.
If it was called the British cat or Scottish cat,you wouldn't hesitate to confirm that it's a European cat,but since it's African,the ambiguity takes place with "no one really knows its origin" even when it's name is its origin. This is a cat seen with the Pharaohs of ancient Egypt which is an African cat. Just like the Pharaohs' dog "Basenji" that everyone always seem not to know the origin evening when it's the popular breed on the African continent that hunters use and every family has had one.
Very likely to be African. Just by looking at it, its body shape and head match those of statues of ancient Egyptian cats and also wild cats still native to Northern and Eastern Africa. It is the most beautiful of all cat breeds.
They like eating snakes eggs and spiders
I used to work in a cattery
cats are sacret animals in islam, the abisinian cat is the closest ancestors to presonal cat of prophet muhammad
never heard that, can you tell us more?
@@wolven777
There are many animals Which praised in Islam such as bees, ants,
But most respected and holy the Cats.
Even Istanbul Turkey is called the city of cats. Cats rome around in Muslim Household/mosques like they own the place.
Many scholar believe cats have special abilities to fight bad jins/Satans. They have especial microbes in their fur and guts that helps boost immunity in newborns
Prophet Muhammad and his companions use to keep cats. Even a Very important companion is known as Abu Huraira (Father of the kittens) 🐾
Prophet Muhammad use to let his cats drink from his vessel of water.
In over Islam encourages us to keep cats as pets and it is the only wild animals which are permitted to live among our children.
In Islam, prophet Muhammad ( pbuh) liked an abysinnian cst called muezza. They once performed abulution ( ritual washing before acts of prayers) with the water also used by the cat. Moreover, once the cat was sleeping on their wrapping blanket ( which they used to take to prayers) , so they didn’t disturb the cat but Instead cut the portion around the cat. They were very fond of the abysinnian cat.
This is the type of cat that the last prophet Muhammad kept. If I have the opportunity, I will take one home.
Do Abyssinians like to be walked?
Don't buy pets. Rescue them.
True
Don't have babies, adopt
@@jordanhtiffirg1990how about we just change the world and stop trying to be cool. Because it makes you lame
In Noah's Ark God created the Abyssinian cat it's designed to do what it does do what it does do it does do well doesn't it yes it does I think it does do you I do hope you do too do you
Please adopt, don't shop.
