The bronze Mau or Pharaonic (pharaoh's) Mau according to the LOOF standards

Hi all,
Usually when we speak of Egyptian maus', we think 1st of the Silver Mau ,
however there are 3 other colours not as known yet but so beautiful that I thought best to present you with some of each starting by the Bronze

on this post, you will be able to see a few examples of Bronze Mau also known as Pharaonic( pharaoh's) Mau according to the LOOF standards!

Most of the pictures shown here were taken from http://www.aime.us with the authorisation of the association and also from

There are other posts discussing the colours, the temper and so on on this forum or on the official website http://www.aime.us, here however, it is only a post to present you our Bronze gold colour, roughly as it was when in Egypt!

I usually say that there are 2 sort of bronze maus : pharaonic and indian. Perhaps should we say there are 3 sorts :

classic bronze : a classic brown color with black spots. not to deep color.
Pharaonic bronze : very colored brown color with black spots.
indian bronze : very colored reddish color with black or brown spots

indian bronze is not conform to French Loof standard.

all are very nice cats. Very strong temper
