Protecting the Arabian Mau

Our mission is to help protect the Arabian Mau, an ancient natural breed native to the Arabian Peninsula. Through awareness, rescue and relocation, we want to give these remarkable cats the opportunity to find safe and loving forever homes in the UK.

An Ancient Breed Facing a Modern Threat

Arabian Maus are distinctive cats with short coats, long legs, large ears and big personalities. Scientific research indicates that their ancestry can be traced back around 10,000 years to the earliest farming settlements in Arabia, making them an important part of the region’s natural history.

In recent decades, however, their future has come under increasing pressure. Rapid urbanisation, a changing climate and the continued abandonment of imported breeds have changed the population of cats living on the streets. Mixed-breed cats are now increasingly common, many of which are less naturally adapted to the harsh Arabian climate.
