Association (CFA).<\/p>\n<p>The first registered Somali was named<strong> <em>May-Ling Tutsuta<\/em><\/strong> and from this new strain the breeders&#8217; selection started.<\/p>\n<p>The Somali shares all the standard parameters with the Abyssinian except for what concerns the <strong>coat<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"Silhouette-morbida-occhi-espressivi-e-pelo-medio-lungo\">Soft silhouette, expressive eyes and medium-long coat<\/h4>\n<p>A medium-sized feline weighing between 4 and 6 kg, the Somali is an agile, slender and graceful cat.<\/p>\n<p>Its almond-shaped eyes, large and bright, are amber, hazel or green in color.<\/p>\n<p>The eyelids are marked with a black line that makes them deep, expressive, and penetrating.<\/p>\n<p>The silky and soft hair is characterized by the <em><strong>ticking <\/strong><\/em>that is, each individual hair has one base color, three contrasting color sections, and always ends with a dark tip.<\/p>\n<p>The most common color is golden brown with an apricot-colored base dotted with black.<\/p>\n<p>At birth, puppies have a dark coat that lightens with age.<\/p>\n<p>In adults, the legs and the back of the hind limbs are always black.<\/p>\n<p>Its tail, long and fringed, resembles that of a fox, and like a fox, it is equally intelligent and lively.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"Il-carattere-del-gatto-somalo\">The character of the Somali cat<\/h4>\n<p>Somali cats are known to be extremely sociable.<\/p>\n<p>These felines tend to develop strong bonds with family members and often seek interaction and attention.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike some more reserved breeds, Somalis are adventurous and playful cats who display an innate curiosity about the world around them.<\/p>\n<p>Another distinguishing feature of the Somali character is his affectionate nature.<\/p>\n<p>These cats love to be close to their humans making them excellent companions for those seeking a loving and comforting presence.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"Le-patologie-ricorrenti\">The recurrent pathologies<\/h4>\n<p>The average<strong>life expectancy<\/strong> of a Somali is around <strong>12 to 15 years<\/strong>, although many can <strong>live up to<\/strong> <strong>20 years<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Although generally enjoying good health, this cat tolerates low temperatures only moderately so care must be taken not to let it get cold.<\/p>\n<p>And again, Somalis can suffer from <em>periodontal diseases <\/em>for which good nutrition and proper oral hygiene are extremely important.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For fecal screening, vaccines, checkups, and periodic checkups to have your Somali cat undergo, contact the veterinary doctors on our staff who are always available to you.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>We would also like to remind you that <a href=\"https:\/\/clinicalaveterinaria.it\/en\/\">Clinica La Veterinaria<\/a> is always open h24 every day including holidays and with First Aid service from 8 pm to 8 am.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4>For the joy of seeing them HAPPY<\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Somali cat is a feline breed related to the Abyssinian.
