Definition
Relating to ancient Abyssinia (Ethiopia), or a person from that region; also refers to a distinctive breed of domestic cat.
Etymology
Formed from 'Abyssinia' plus the adjectival suffix '-ian'; the cat breed was named for its supposed origin in the Abyssinian region, though it likely originated elsewhere.
Kelly Says
The Abyssinian cat is one of the most ancient cat breeds shown in Egyptian art, and they're known for being super energetic and curious—they're basically little cats with the attention span of squirrels!
