The Abyssinian Satin cavy is a Satinized version of the Abyssinian.

Like the Abyssinian, it is required to have a set pattern of rosettes and ridges,

with a minimum of eight rosettes present to be showable.

The Abyssinian Satin is furthermore distinguished by the brilliant sheen, or "shininess" of it's coat.

Abyssinian Satins often seem to sparkle as they move across a show table.
