The Manx

Did you know that the Manx is a lot like the American and Japanese Bobtails? Why? Because they all have that distinctly bred naturally docked tails or naturally no tail at all. The Manx may be born with a stub for a tail or no at it all. Contrary to popular belief the no tail is completely genetic and has no docking or other manmade alternation. The tailless cat first appeared on the Isle of Man which is where it’s name comes from. The Manx is occasionally born with a stub like bobtail, but it most cases it simply has no tail at all. The unqiue breed comes in various color patterns with coat lengths both short and long. They are excellent hunters and are often kept as mousers to keep farms and homes free of rodents.
