In no way do we work with breeders or buy the cats from the Friday markets so we can put them up for adoption as a rescue.<br/><br/>Native Mau Cats of Egypt are the oldest known descendants of Egyptian domesticated cats (which have provided a partial foundation for the recent Egyptian Mau cat breed), and they are one of only a few naturally occurring, small, spotted cats in the world. Adoptions are on a cost-recovery basis and by an approved application. NVEcats aims to increase education in Egypt and around the world about these magnificent and intelligent cats.<br/><br/> ADOPT AN EGYPTIAN LIVING ANTIQUITY! <br/><br/>Bastet's Cat Sanctuary Inc., a program of Nile Valley Egyptian Foundation Inc., rescues homeless, abandoned, and abused cats from Egypt and gives them the opportunity to find loving, permanent homes in the United States.<br/><br/>Many of these beautiful cats are native Egyptian breeds and local cats whose ancestors have lived in Egypt for generations.
