The way your eldest sister always wanted an Egyptian Mau, but they’re hella expensive, and then she and your second sister find a cat with a broken tail tied to a tree, abandoned, discover she has thumbs, and she’s the skinniest thing for years, and then finally puts on weight, decides she loves to cause chaos, chooses her people very carefully, always waits at the door for said people, and stands on the highest perches, and you aren’t really sure what breed she is. Has like a silver undercoat, and has spots along with stripes.
And then eldest sister is talking to someone who finds a cat that’s near identical to Theo (your eldest sister’s cat that she found tied to a tree) and your sister is like, “Huh. Have the vet dna test it to find out what breed it is”.
And it’s an Egyptian freaking Mau.
Which means Theo is most likely an Egyptian Mau mixed with a Domestic Brown Tabby.

cat breeds round #2: Arabian Mau, Egyptian Mau, Burmilla, Havana Brown, Japanese Bobtail, Cymric
find round #1 here
One more post coming soon and that will be the final in this series.
I want to take this opportunity to talk about short tail mutations in cats, with the Japanese Bobtail and Cymric as examples. Btw Cymric is just a longhaired Manx, so we're talking about the Manx gene here. The Manx mutation for short tails is notorious for the associated health complications, even including death. You see, the mutation works by eliminating some vertebra and that makes the tail shorter. Sometimes it eliminates too many vertebra. In any case, you should never breed tailless x tailless Manx. In contrast, the mutation that gives the Japanese breed its short tail seems to be harmless and devoid of negative side effects. There are probably more than these two that can cause short tails in cats - some harmless, some very dangerous. Anyway. Think twice before buying a Manx or one of the breeds derived from it, and carrying a potentially very dangerous mutation.

beautiful black egyptian mau.
small to medium-sized short-haired cat breed.
one of the few naturally spotted breeds of domesticated cat.
the spots of the mau occur on only the tips of the hairs of its coat.
considered a rare breed.
historical evidence points to the mau being an egyptian breed.

Monica made friends with one of the hotel cats. It was real easy to do so: she gave him treats and suddenly had a lap buddy.
