Chausie Cat VS. Abyssinian Cat.

What are the differences between these two cat breeds?


The Chausie is a mixed breed cat–a cross between the Abyssinian and wild jungle cat breeds. Energetic, playful, and outgoing, these felines inherited some of the best traits and distinctive looks from their parents. They’re also one of the largest domestic cat breeds.

As you’d expect from a breed with wild cat roots, the Chausie is a feline who needs a lot of space and requires a lot of playtimes. This is not a cat who does well being left alone all day, and due to their wild heritage, they’re also not the best fit for a household with young children.

A love of heights is a signal trait of the Abyssinian. He likes to be as high up as possible and will appreciate having one or more ceiling-height cat trees.


The Chausie's coat comes in three colors: Brown tabby, solid black, and grizzled tabby. When it comes to climate, the Chausie is generally an adaptable breed of cat. Although, you should always make sure that there's enough shade and fresh water available during the hotter months.

The Aby is often said to look as if he had just walked straight out of the wild. That’s because of his ticked coat pattern, which resembles that of wild cats such as cougars. A ticked coat has alternating light and dark bands of color on each hair shaft.


First of all, there's no getting around the fact that the Chausie retains a lot of their wild cat traits. This breed will be active for long spells of the day and prefers to act in an athletic manner, rather than a delicate and dainty one.

The Chausie is a cat who makes a lot of demands on its owner and needs a high degree of interaction and playtime. In many cases, the breed has shown a willingness to play fetch with toys.

The Chausie is also known to be a very intelligent feline so you'll want to constantly keep them challenged with a series of smart and interactive toys that you rotate on a regular basis. Still, despite the Chausie's energetic traits, they're also a cat who will form very strong and loving bonds with the adult humans in their life, and there's definitely an affectionate side to the feline.

Of all the cat breeds, the Abyssinian is perhaps the one who lives life to the fullest. He climbs higher, jumps farther, plays harder. Nothing escapes the notice of this highly intelligent and inquisitive cat, a quality that makes life with him both endlessly entertaining and continuously challenging. Staying a step ahead of an Aby, as the breed is nicknamed, or even just keeping pace with him, requires the fancy footwork of a Fred Astaire, the brainpower of an Einstein, and a sense of humor that never stops.

You never know what he’ll get into next, although you can assume that if you have something or are doing something, your Aby will want to investigate it closely. Some people refer to the cats as Aby-grabby because of their propensity for taking things that catch their interest.


The Aby loves to play, so plan on making or purchasing a variety of toys to keep him occupied. Ping-Pong balls, bottle caps, wadded-up pieces of paper, puzzle toys, and teasers such as big peacock feathers will all amuse this busy and brainy cat. Teach him to retrieve at your peril. Once you start, he won’t let you stop. He learns tricks quickly and many Abys enjoy running a feline agility course.

A love of heights is a signal trait of the Abyssinian. He likes to be as high up as possible and will appreciate having one or more ceiling-height cat trees. When those aren’t available, he is perfectly capable of making his way to the uppermost point of any room. Fortunately, he is naturally graceful and rarely breaks items unless it is simply out of curiosity.
