ʻAʻole liona sofa hiamoe ka Abyssinian hoʻokūkū. Pono ʻo ia i ka hana! Eia naʻe, inā hāʻawi ʻoe iā ia i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa nui, e loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi hoaaloha feline aloha a naʻauao no ke ola. E ʻike i nā mea a pau e pili ana i ka pua puaʻa Abyssinian ma aneʻi.
ʻO nā pōpoki Abyssinian kekahi o nā pōpoki pedigree kaulana loa i waena o nā poʻe aloha pōpoki. Maanei ʻoe e ʻike ai i ka ʻike nui loa e pili ana i ka poʻe Abyssinians.
Ke kumu o ko Abisinia
Ua lawe ʻia ka pōpoki ʻAbyssinian mua i Pelekane Nui i ka wā i haʻalele ai nā pūʻali colonial iā Abyssinia (i kēia lā ma nā mokuʻāina ʻo ʻApelika Hikina o ʻAitiopa a me Eritrea). Ua hana ʻia ka male ʻana me nā pōpoki home a me nā pedigree Pelekania i mea e pale ai i ka hānau ʻana. I ka makahiki 1871, ua hōʻike ʻia kahi pōpoki Abyssinian ma ka hōʻikeʻike kaulana ʻo Crystal Palace ma Lākana. ʻO ia ka manawa, i ka hopena o ke kenekulia 19, ua ʻike ʻia kahi leʻaleʻa hou ma ʻEnelani. Ua hoʻolaʻa lākou iā lākou iho i ka hānai ʻana i ka pōpoki a me kahi ʻano hiʻohiʻona hoihoi e like me ka Abyssinian he mea makemake nui ia.
Ka helehelena o ko Abisinia
ʻO ka Abyssinian he pōpoki liʻiliʻi, ʻiʻo a wīwī i ʻike ʻia. Ua kapa pinepine ʻia ʻo ia ʻo "mini puma". ʻO ke poʻo he ʻano wili a me ka lōʻihi me ka palupalu a me ka nani a me ka lae pōʻai mālie. ʻO nā pepeiao ʻAbyssinian he nui a ākea ma ke kumu, me nā ʻaoʻao a puni. ʻO ko lākou mau wāwae he lōʻihi a paʻakikī a hoʻomaha ma nā wāwae oval liʻiliʻi.
ʻAʻahu a me nā kala o ka poʻe ʻAbyssinians
He pōkole a maikaʻi ka hulu o ka ʻAbyssinian. ʻO ka mea kūikawā e pili ana i nā pōpoki Abyssinian ʻo ia ka mea i hoʻopaʻa ʻia kēlā me kēia lauoho i nā manawa he nui. Hāʻawi kēia i ka manaʻo o kahi pōpoki ʻike ʻole ʻia. ʻElua a ʻekolu ʻāpana kala ma kēlā me kēia lauoho ʻeleʻele ke koho ʻia (ticked tabby). ʻO ka maka maʻamau wale nō a me ka "M" ma ka lae e hōʻike maopopo ana i nā hōʻailona tabby.
I kēia mau lā, hānai ʻia nā Abyssinians i kēia mau kala: nā kala ʻāhiu (i kapa ʻia ʻo "Ruddy"), Sorrel a me kā lākou dilutions Blue a me Fawn. Hele pū kēia mau kala me ke kālā, kahi e hoʻololi nui ai i ka manaʻo kala. Hoʻopili pū ʻia nā Abyssinians i ke kokoleka, lilac, a me ka ʻaila. Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole ʻike ʻia kēia mau kala i nā hui āpau.
ʻO ke kala o ka maka Abyssinian he maʻemaʻe, akaka, a ikaika amber, ʻōmaʻomaʻo a melemele paha. Eia kekahi, ʻike ʻia nā maka o ka Abyssinians i ke kala o ka ticking.
Ke ano o ko Abisinia
ʻO ka Abyssinian kahi ʻano pōpoki ʻuhane. He hoihoi, pāʻani, a naʻauao. Eia kekahi, ʻo ka Abyssinian he mea hahai i ka uila ke hāʻawi ʻia ka manawa. ʻIke mau a pāʻani, ʻaʻole kūpono ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he pōpoki hoʻokahi no ka poʻe hana. Pono ʻoe e mālama iā ia i ka liʻiliʻi loa i hoʻokahi hoa pōkiʻi huhū loa inā ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻololi i kou ola holoʻokoʻa i nā pono o ia puahiohio.
Ka malama a me ka malama ana i na Abyssinians
Pono ka pōpoki Abyssinian i kahi noho kūpono a me ka nui o ka hana. Ma keʻano he pōpoki hoʻokahi, kūpono wale ia i kahi palena palena. Nui ka poʻe ʻAbyssinian e makemake e kiʻi a hoʻomau, a ʻo kēia mau pōpoki lauoho pōkole akamai i kahi pae mua i ka wā e pili ana i nā mea pāʻani naʻauao. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻo kahi wahi Abyssinian maikaʻi loa e noʻonoʻo i nā pono piʻi o nā mea pāʻani liʻiliʻi. Inā koho ka poʻe Abyssinians iā ʻoe i mea punahele, he aka hou kāu. Makemake ka pōpoki ʻAbyssinian e noho ma nā wahi a pau no ka mea aia kekahi mea hoihoi e ʻike.
Ma muli o kona ʻano, ʻaʻole ʻo Abyssinian kahi ʻano o ka pōpoki i mālama maʻalahi ʻia ma ka ʻaoʻao. He lālā ʻohana pili ʻo ia e koi ana iā ʻoe i ka wā e pili ana i ka hana. ʻO kahi hale me nā keiki i aʻo i ke ʻano o ka mālama ʻana i nā pōpoki e kūpono i ka Abyssinian pāʻani maikaʻi a ʻaʻole ʻo ia e noʻonoʻo i kahi ʻīlio aloha pipi. ʻO ka mea nui ke hele nei kekahi mea a ʻaʻole pono ʻo ia e noho hoʻokahi.
I ka wā e hoʻomaʻemaʻe ai i ka poʻe Abyssinians, maʻalahi ka mea nona ka hale. ʻO ka ʻaʻahu pōkole a maikaʻi he ʻaʻahu liʻiliʻi ma lalo a wehe ʻia ka lauoho make inā e pulupulu mau ʻia me kahi lei curry rubber a i ʻole ma ka lima.
