CFA Egyptian Mau Breed Statistics
2009 preliminary numbers look promising with an increase in litter size of 35%. While over all ranking stayed steady at 21 and number of kittens decreased slightly by 9% it must be noted that preliminary kitten numbers usually climb significantly as the late registrations straggle in. Overall kitten registrations for the year increased a promising 5%.
For 2008, based on preliminary figures registration fell once again although, this time we stemmed the preliminary decrease from 15% to 10%. Nevertheless, the continued decline in registration figures is reflected in the loss of one place in breed standings from 20th to 21st.
For 2007, after final numbers, total litters were almost stable and total kittens showed a slight increase. Note that preliminary figures showed that registration fell again by 15% - an indication perhaps that breeders delayed registering litters. The breed maintained the breed ranking of 20th.
