my cats are getting so much larger

[wayne0214]

wolflady, yes, on the size of Abys'. In practically every picture I have seen of them, they appear to be larger than they are. It is like Noah'smommy posted from the CFA, that Abys are medium size. I suppose that Jumper will not top the scales over 10 lbs. when fully matured

Luvdemabys, I just now caught your post. Never having seen a thoroughbred Abyssinian, I actually do not know how large a cat they are expected to be. I know that Jumper is built differently that any of my other cats, with a longer spine and tail, larger ears , with a much thinner body than Snow Cat's, except for his torbie- mommy , Aby Queen. (she is primarily an outdoor cat), he otherwise has all of the aby-type personality traits, except for his coat color -black.

Noah'smommy, I suppose that because Jumper's eyes are paritally covered by a fold of fur on the TOP of his eyelids (eyebrows), this gives the appearance of him looking down whenever he walks around, although I'm sure he is looking straight ahead. It is just that I don't recall him looking UP at me, not like the others. I'll be more watchful in that respect, however. It is about time for for my cat's afternoon feeding, so I'll watch his eye contact today.
