Kirby 'Hopeful' Abyssinian & Domestic Short Hair Mix Mt. Vernon, NY

Abyssinian mixes are considered to be exotic. Their beautiful coats have been admired for hundreds if not thousands of years. The general thinking is that the Abyssinian is a direct descendent of the cats depicted in Egyptian murals and sculptures. They were first spotted in the US in the early 1900s. Now they are considered to be second only to the Siamese in popularity. So, want in on this marvel?

Poor Kirby is a senior, and therefore hasn’t had much interest. He gets overlooked for the younger cats each and every time. The fact that he is frisky, and jumps like a teenager doesn’t seem to matter. His eyesight has weakened a bit, and so he is sometimes a little nervous if other cats come by and catch him off guard.

Kirby is a couch potato and loves his solitude. A few pets on his head and he's a happy camper. Want to give a senior a new life? Enjoy changing the world one sentient being at a time? We’ve seen how Kirby only gets better and better as he adjusts to new surroundings. He’s had enough of shelter life, and really yearns to be back in a home. Please come and say hello.
