The Arabian Mau is a formal breed of domestic cat, originated from the early African wildcat, a short-haired landrace native to the Arabian Peninsula. It lives in the streets of the Arabian Peninsula and has adapted very well to its extreme climate. The Arabian Mau is recognized as a formal breed by a few fancier and breeder organizations and cat registries, World Cat Federation (WCF) and Emirates Feline Federation (EFF). Based on one landrace, the Arabian Mau is a natural breed.

Is medium in size, with a body structure that is rather large and firm, not particularly slender, and with well-developed musculature. The legs are comparatively long, with oval paws.

The head appears round but is slightly longer than broad. The nose is slightly concave and curved when viewed in profile. The whisker pads are clearly pronounced, with a slight pinch. The chin is very firm. The eyes are slightly oval, large, and slightly slanted. The cat may have any normal cat eye color. There is no relation between the eye and coat colors. Usually, Arabian Maus has bright green eyes. The ears are large, slightly forward and sideward-placed, a little long, and high-set on the skull.

While Arabian Maus is not technically hypoallergenic, its low propensity for shedding and dander production may cause lesser reactions in those with mild allergies.
