The cat with the smiling face, the Somali is of medium build and foreign type. The Somali is highly intelligent. They are good natured and playful and enjoy games and toys. They are often more friendly and affectionate than their Abyssinian cousins and really do enjoy human company. The Somali is a breathtakingly beautiful cat, with a ticked coat that comes in two lengths, semi-longhaired and short haired. The combination of ticked fur in a range of colours, striking facial markings, large ears and bright, expressive eyes gives the Somali a wild look which immediately captivates. The Somali is a combination of beauty and personality; a very intelligent cat, its zest for life and love of play blossoms with human companionship. The Somali is the epitome of everything most people want in a companion animal - lively, alert and actively engaged in everything that piques their curiosity. However, when playtime is over, they will seek all the attention and affection their family is willing to give.
