I have two Abbys and had one earlier, for years. They all have had their own little personalities and yet have had some things in common. My two current ones are just one year old. I have heard that this breed matures much more slowly than some other breeds. I try to play with my guys before I head for bed and also, I feed them in the evening and not the morning...so they go in to a carb/food overload coma in the evening. When I say feed, I mean that they get 1/2 a can of cat food to split between the two of them. They have dry food all the time.

They are constantly on top of cabinets, leaping from one section to the other and often jump on my shoulders from the floor. They are just a royal pain most of the time. If I dare to get on my hand and knees to wash a floor or something like that, I have two cats on my back. They bring their favorite toys to bed at night! They like to retreive toys that are thrown!

Abys are playful and smart and the combination = itch! Having two Abys I have two itches at the same time! But I love them so.
