The Egyptian Mau has is the only naturally spotted breed of domestic cat. An extremely intelligent animal, the Mau places a great importance on family, both human and their own, and is fiercely loyal in its devotion to them.
One must be cautious what they teach their Mau to do, once the mau learns a new behavior, like opening cupboard doors, it is very difficult for then to unlearn this behavior.
Maus are moderately active and often express their happiness by chortling in a soft melodious voice and wiggling their tails at great speed while treading with their forepaws.
With an elegant body that is randomly spotted, banded legs and tail, expressive gooseberry green eyes, distinctive mascara lines, a worried expression on the face, and a graceful cheetah-like stride, it is no wonder that the Mau attracts such a tremendous amount of attention at cat shows."
