My cat playing chess!

She found a nice spot at the sun to think about her first move!

You are right, an Abyssinian!

and this guy is a Somali

I know I know!

Did she play the Abyssinian? I heard that's a sharp opening. Did she win?

Wait a minute. Is there really an Abyssinian Gambit? I'm going to go check.

Against the Abyssinian Gambit you can play the Maine Coon Counter-Gambit, which give you a good game for a sacrificed mouse, I mean, a pawn.

And no, she is still thinking about her first move. She does know much about time management.

Look how she usually play. https://youtu.be/qUmZ7Joir8c

You're explaining the QGA to her as you go, right?

Very pretty cats. Give them my regards.

Yes, but I think she wasn’t paying attention!

Look what I found today in a flea market!

Future world champion?

Looks a bit like me!

Beautiful cats, Abyssinians, although all the ones I've known have been completely crazy. I'm amazed there are any pieces left on the board!

We are lucky. All our Abyssinians yet were very kind, sweet creatures. The Somali is the most kind and beauty cat I ever saw. Some time ago he disappeared for 3 days; we got almond crazy. We found him - was trapped in a basement.
