According to Wikipedia, Egyptian Maus have spots on their skin that apparently can be seen when the cat is shaved. A few questions:
1) Is this true?
2) Is this only Egyptian Maus, or all spotted cats?
3) Will this still show up on a black cat if it has ghost spots?
(Reason why I'm asking: I'm starting to wonder if Bunny is a black E Mau. I knew she has ghost spots, but it only recently occurred to me that she could be a black mau. While I assumed she's a DSH, she's a stunning cat as far as body shape. The more other people comment on it, the more I wonder. She seems to fit the descriptions I've read. There's a breeder nearby and I'm wondering now...)
