The Abyssinian cat is a breed of domestic short-haired cat with a distinctive "ticked" tabby coat, in which individual hairs are banded with different colors. In nomenclature terms, they are also known as simply Abys. The breed is named for Abyssinia (now called Ethiopia), where it is believed to have originated.

The Abyssinian cat, as it is known today, was bred in Great Britain. It is alleged that British soldiers deployed to North Africa returned home with kittens purchased from local traders in the nineteenth century.

The Abyssinian cat is a slender, fine-boned, medium-sized cat. The head is moderately wedge-shaped, with a slight break at the muzzle and nose and chin, ideally forming a straight vertical line when viewed in profile. Abyssinians have alert, relatively large pointed ears. The eyes are almond-shaped and are gold, green, hazel, or copper, depending on coat color. The legs tend to belong in proportion to a graceful body, with tiny oval paws; the tail is likewise long and tapering.

In terms of the domestication of cats, analysis has found the Abyssinian cat to be one of the oldest types of the animal in existence, with mummified cats in Egyptian tombs studied by archaeologists appearing similar to the modern breed's standards. Although regarded as comparatively obscure in the past as a breed compared to others, the Abyssinian cat currently ranks among the top five most popular breeds worldwide.

Abyssinian cats’ distinctive appearance, seeming long, lean, and finely colored compared to other cats, has been analogized to that of human fashion models. Personality-wise, the cats traditionally display active, curious attitudes in which they frequently follow owners around and encourage play, being regarded as the "Clowns of the Cat Kingdom." Their dog-like characteristics also involve a particular sense of affection and desire for interaction.
