Adoptable EMRO Cats - Updated April 18, 2013

We are happy you came here to look at our cats in need of a good home, and we hope you will find your new companion here. If you come here more often, please don't forget to refresh your screen periodically by pressing the 'F5' button to view the updated cat biographies. (Pictures with a borders around them indicate there are two pictures available for viewing. Place your mouse over a picture, when the arrow changes to a hand, click on the picture to view the second picture.)

If you are particularly interested in any new cat, please make an inquiry and put in an application for that cat. You find the application as well as other information about the adoption process on the Adoption Information page. There is no obligation to adopt until it is confirmed, and you have decide which cat is the one for you, and you will be considered next for this cat.

German Flag aniKlicken Sie hier für die Adoptionsinformation auf Deutsch. Um unsere "Zu Adoptierenden Katzen" auf Deutsch anzusehen, klicken Sie hier.

Many cats you see here are also available for sponsorship while awaiting adoption, and each cat may be sponsored by more than one person. EMRO also takes care of cats who are old, feral or have health issues preventing their adoption. These cats need Sponsors the most! You can find these cats HERE.

OFF-SITE - We have additional Mau-mixes and Non-Mau cats available for both adoption and sponsorship being fostered by volunteers or by rescuers. You can find these sweet-tempered cats looking for homes of their own HERE.

Also, please have a look at the Egyptian and Arabian Maus available for adoption under Dubai Arabian Maus  and Saudi Arabia (KSA) Cats.

We are always urgently looking for a Pet Escorts who are willing to accompany cats on their way to their new homes outside Egypt. Escorts are given a stipend of USD $50 (USA/Canada) or EURO 30. See Escort a Mau.

Unable to adopt? If you live in the Cairo area, EMRO is urgently looking for foster homes for some of our cats and kittens who would do better in a temporary, nurturing home environment. If you are interested in becoming a Foster Parent, click HERE.

Cats, kittens, and "Special Needs. Special needs" felines designated with the below cat icon indicate that they have Sponsors who have graciously volunteered to pay their travel costs out of Egypt. Potential Adopters need pay only the basic adoption balance plus the Pet Escort fee (if applicable) to get their adopted felines home.

NOTE: The Founders of EMRO have decided to put aside some funds which will assist a number of cats to get to their destinations by paying for their travel expenses (upon successful adoption, of course). These funds will assist Adopters, both locally and internationally, to successfully adopt a Mau where money is an issue or is an insurmountable barrier to successfully getting their Mau home.

If any of these needy felines are adopted locally, then the funds will pay for their full local adoption. Any remaining monies will automatically roll back to helping other cats, especially on a wait list, to have available funds placed next to their bios. This will also serve to "bump up" those kitties currently waiting in line to max out at $400 or $450, if possible (i.e., half of the cost to ship a cat to North America)."

Have more questions? See our Frequently Asked Questions page, located here.

EMRO's mandate is to rescue and rehome Native Egyptian Maus, Arabian Maus and Shirazi Maus, and all intakes are at the sole discretion of the founder: you may contact at info@emaurescue.org. Please note that EMRO, although a non-profit organization, is NOT government funded and relies solely on the donations and good will of those using its services. We are a small shelter and have very limited spaces for intakes. Pet quality Maus remain available through EMRO to any one interested locally or worldwide in helping save a Mau who satisfies our basic screening application and who are able to pay for its expenses to get to their new home (we operate on a cost-recovery basis).  However EMRO will also often recommend to a potential adopter to also consider the Native Egyptian Mau breeder closest to them (please check NESMAweb site).

We're Home! No more cold, hunger, and no more being alone!

Comments:

This handsome fellow is all grown up, enjoys and prefers hanging around EMRO, and enjoys sitting on customers laps as if saying "Take me home!". He is quite friendly, but might scratch a bit if someone tries to remove him before he is ready. Otherwise, Erik is very tame, friendly and we are hoping that he finds a home soon. He is currently roaming the EMRO grounds, perhaps "shopping" for a Guardian.

Non-Maus for Adoption at EMRO HQ

EMRO specializes in Maus for adoption, but sometimes unavoidable circumstances leave us with a few non-Maus or Mau mixes. To view some of these infrequent intakes, please see below. We also sometimes advertise for Mau and non-Mau cats available for adoption off site of the shelter (further below).

Comments:

This lovely, tame Tortie kitten was born in Alexandria, offspring of momma cat, Mouse. She has been checked and has been given her vaccinations of a combo vaccine. Mervat is an adorable kitten who is very sweet, adoptable and ready to re-home.

Although very loving and tolerant of people, Mervat has been having difficulty relating to other cats. It would be recommended that she be the only cat in a household.

The cats should have born about more a week before, and I really do not know how they survived." The kittens were brought to EMRO and added to Lolly's litter of two. Unfortunately, two of the black kittens didn't survive, but Sa'ad and his sister Silvia are doing well. Sa'ad does not like cameras.

Status:

Adopted! - Awaiting travel to the U.K.

Sponsored by Rebekah, U.K.

Type: Nile Valley Egyptian Cat
Gender: Female - Spayed
Age: born July 2005
Comments: Calli is a sweet cat, she hangs around outside and in of EMRO HQ. She was found by the staff being chased by some bully cats and coaxed down from scaffolding. She has hung around ever since. Calli had an intestinal hernia which was fixed when she was spayed. She would really enjoy her own home where she could go in and outside, and perhaps with another companion that she could gradually warm up to - perhaps a laid back older cat. Good indoor/outdoor pet!

Type: Beige Persian
Gender: Female
Age: born July 8, 2011
Comments:

This sweet little girl was dumped in front of the EMRO shelter earlier in the year. She was obviously someone's family pet because she is very friendly with both cats and people. She is very sweet, calm, loveable, and litter trained. She has received her medical check-up and medications.

The Staff has reported that this little cutie is very depressed, probably missing her family, and has lost a lot of weight. She desperately needs a family to love her and a Forever Home she can call her own.

Sawsan is currently in a Foster Home to help with her depression.

Type: Bronze Native Egyptian Mau
Gender: Female - Spayed
Age: born March 2009
Comments:

Special Needs. Special needs

Born in Tanta close to a family who found other street Mau cats for EMRO. An orphaned stray, she became friendly and hung out in a nearby garage or shop. Sadly, she was run over by a bicyclist, and this dislocated her left shoulder, so she walks disjointed a bit. The shoulder has set that way and the vet thinks she is not in pain and has learned to compensate for the injury. A bit shy, but very sweet.
