Boxmas History

The Boxmas is a variety of hairless cat that is descended from the Egyptian Mau. The Egyptian Mau is a medium-sized, long-haired, spotted, and felid (cat). The Egyptians consider the Mau sacred, and cats were kept as pets and for religious ceremonies. In ancient times, the breeding of cats was forbidden. Some believe that the cat was domesticated in Egypt, while others believe it was domesticated in the Indus Valley. The Egyptian Mau is believed to have originated in the Nile valley, and the name “Mau” is thought to have originated from the word “mau”, the ancient Egyptian word for “cat”.
