Doctor's Advice
These playful, energetic cats love to climb and are very attached to their owners. Their ticked coats are unique to this breed. Renal failure rate for Abyssinian cats was identified to be more than double the baseline rate in a study of cats seen at veterinary colleges between 1980-1990. For this reason, we like to closely monitor their renal health with baseline blood work and ongoing monitoring.
