FAQs

How can I tell if my cat is an Arabian Mau?

You can identify an Arabian Mau by its medium size, muscular and sleek body, round yet slightly elongated head with distinct whisker pads, large pointed ears set high and angled slightly forward, large oval and slightly slanted eyes often bright green but varying in colour, long legs with oval paws, and a short, close-lying coat without an undercoat in colours like red, white, black, brown tabby, or spotted white patterns.

Are Arabian Mau cats friendly?

Yes, Arabian Mau cats are known for their affectionate and vocal nature; they communicate openly with their owners and have a lively, social temperament which makes them very friendly companions.

Are Arabian Mau cats rare?

Arabian Mau cats are relatively rare outside the Arabian Peninsula, where they are common as semi-feral street cats. Due to formal breed recognition occurring just over a decade ago, they remain uncommon globally and can sometimes be hard to find.

Is the Arabian Mau a stray cat?

The Arabian Mau originates from naturally occurring landrace cats that lived as feral street cats in the Arabian Peninsula; although many locally are street cats, the breed today is officially recognised and can be kept as a domesticated pet.
