Love that you remembered that Abyssinians apparently walk on four legs when they’re kittens!!!

I was wondering if it was intentional XP
I think it's just a cute idea that Abyssinians are apparently basically indistinguishable from very large cats.

Thanks!
The reasoning was that we don't really have much canon material regarding Abynissia -are the comics canon? If not, then we don't have any at all aside from the name. So I decided to insert some of my own world-building into it just to make it more interesting to myself And abynissian is an actual cat breed which exists irl, that have a very distinct coat as the breed standard (which I tried to draw Zini as having the very stylized ruddy variant of). So I thought, it'd be fun if I incorporated that into the lore somehow? So in my version of Abynissia, there's some pretty strong discrimination/preference for the "traditional Abynissian coloring". How extreme it is depends on area and social status -the poorer you are, the less you care. It's mainly the nobles running around screeching about it, which bleeds over into some of the more wealthy traders and such. It's considered more attractive and generally superior. (There's a minor outrage going on in the country that neither the current king nor queen have this coat -some radicals see it as a sign that they shouldn't be in charge). Many families would love to adopt someone who does have this trait, as they could marry them (and thus, their family) into some higher family and thus gain social standing.
Tbh, looking at Capper's coloration, I think they may have actually taken some inspiration from abynissian coat colors? He doesn't have the exact pattern, but it's a very stylized cartoon. Still, to me it looks more like some variant of seal point -maybe mink or chocolate mink?- so that's what I headcanon his coat-pattern as being.
