While any old Mau may come in several shades and variations of colors, the Cat Fanciers’ Association recognizes three acceptable colors for show – silver, bronze, and smoke. Cats of other colors, such as black, blue-silver, blue spotted, blue smoke, and solid blue, are still one hundred percent Mau, although they are not recognized for show.
