Abyssinians are predators. Please remember that as you are deciding what you should feed your new Abyssinian. If you don’t stick to this, your Abyssinian may reject your food offerings. If you’re giving your her food that is not meat or formulated from meat products, you will have a difficult time getting your Abyssinian to eat.
What food you should serve to your Abyssinian.
Don’t ever forget that Abyssinians share recent ancestry with the biggest of felines — cheetahs, lions and tigers — so take that to heart as you’re feeding the Abyssinian. Never will you witness a mature puma on National Geographic eating an apple, chewing grass, or drinking milk in the wild.
Declawing a Abyssinian is an intense operation known as onychectomy, performed with anesthesia, that removes the claw of each finger (from the first knuckle out) of the Abyssinian’s paws. There’s a remote possibility of death in the operation, and a declawed Abyssinian might have a slight risk of infection and permanent pain in his paws. This procedure is not suitable for a mature Abyssinian and is considered an act of animal cruelty in some places (see below).
