Cat breed
Egyptian Mau
Origin: Egypt
The Egyptian Mau is a small to medium-sized, short to medium-haired rare standardised cat breed. It bears a solid or spotted tabby coat pattern, which makes the Mau relatively unique as it is one of the few naturally spotted tabby breeds of domesticated cat. The spots of the Mau only occur on the tips of the hairs of its coat.
