Prior To Responding To That Egyptian Maus Kittens For Sale Sign

By Stephanie Murphy


Right now you could possibly be in the market for a new pet or one to replace the one you just lost. And as you have been searching around, you may have seen an advert or sign that said there are Egyptian Maus kittens for sale in your area. This may have roused your interest somewhat and are just dying to get one of these kittens right away. Before you do so, do read on in this article for some tips on what to know about this breed.

The Egyptian Mau can be described by most as a quite unique feline breed. It is a cat that most will say looks like a tiny leopard or even a lynx, due to its naturally occurring spotted patterns. It is probably the fastest domesticated cat, as it can run up to 30 miles per hour.

Its legs many will say are made up of springs or are springs themselves, according to many previous and current owners of this breed. It will have the ability to jump up straight from a resting position of up to a vertical height of three or more feet. It is a very active breed, and you will need plenty of space to keep it in. Remember also as an initial warning, that the space it will live in should have not a lot of breakable or fragile items which it will probably knock over most of the time.

The cat, though described as many as being reserved and very gentle, is somewhat of an attention addict. It will let you know that it requires attention. Due to this, it is highly recommended that it should be socialized at a very young age with a lot of other people on a continuous basis. This is very much helpful if you plan to travel around a lot or make your cat join shows and competition. The earlier it learns to socialize, the less jittery it will become around other people.

This is also a breed that kind of likes to eat a lot, so there will be a problem if you overfeed it. When it is overfed, it will get used to the larger amounts, and it will refuse to eat anything smaller than the largest portion it has gotten used to. You should avoid overfeeding it by reading its signals for affection correctly rather than thinking it is sending out a signal that it is hungry.

A quite surprising thing about this breed of cat is that it has the ability to sing. It will sing like a small bird when it is pleased, rather than purr, as it will chortle and chirp. This chortling and chirping sound is also exhibited when it is excited or curious about something, like when it sees a new plaything or something to chase like an insect for example.

In terms of reproduction, this breed has a fairly long gestation period, ranging from 63 days to 70 days. If it does go over 70 days sometimes, it should be no cause for alarm. This is because they give birth pretty easily.

Thus covered in this article are some good baseline facts that you should know about the breed prior to your purchase. Remember to also look at other factors that are crucial for you to become a good cat owner.
