My Cat!
My cat is an Abyssinian Tabby. It is named after Abyssinia (now called Ethiopia) the country from which it was first thought to have originated; more recent research now places its origins somewhere near the Egyptian coast. The Abyssinian has since become one of the most popular breeds of short hair cat in the USA. My cat thinks she is a god at my house. She pretends like she owns the place. But my dog and my cat get along. That's my cat (down)
