Holding a resemblance to felines of ancient Egypt, Abyssinians are thought to be one of the oldest cat breeds in the world. While these felines are unmistakably known for being sociable, attention-loving and affectionate, they are known to be lap cats. Instead, they can be seen hanging out with or around their owners whenever possible and require a lot of interaction. As with Ragdolls, Abyssinians don’t do well alone but are open to the company of other felines as well. However, do note that breed alone doesn’t define a feline’s level of affection and friendliness. It ultimately depends on the cat’s individual temperament and personality – so be sure to do some research before welcoming a feline friend home!
