Abyssinian kittens: price and how to buy
- How much do Abyssinian kittens cost?
- There are no kittens of this breed available right now, so we’ll name the price when a litter arrives. It depends on the color and on whether you take the kitten as a pet or with breeding rights. Join the waitlist and we’ll write to you first.
- Why do the pet and breeding prices differ?
- A kitten sold as a pet moves in as a companion, without breeding rights. The price with breeding rights is higher because that kitten goes to breeding work. When the cattery offers both, both prices are shown on the kitten’s page.
- How do I buy a kitten?
- Pick a kitten in the catalogue and send a request on the site or in the cattery’s Telegram bot — no sign-up needed. We’ll get in touch, answer your questions and reserve the kitten for you.
- What documents does a kitten come with?
- Each kitten’s page shows what is already done before the move: age-appropriate vaccinations, a vet passport, deworming, a microchip and a pedigree.
- Can I take a kitten to another city or country?
- The cattery is in Dnipro, Ukraine. Transport to another city in Ukraine or abroad is arranged individually when you reserve.
Abyssinian: temperament and traits
The Abyssinian is one of the oldest known breeds: the name refers to Abyssinia (today’s Ethiopia), and British breeders shaped its modern look in the late 19th century. These are energetic, curious and intelligent cats that love heights, puzzle toys and taking part in everything that happens at home. The short ticked coat, where each hair carries several bands of colour, needs almost no grooming, and the breed suits active people who are ready to play a lot.
