The Manx cat is a breed that is ever friendly,
intelligent, and easy to train. This cat
is also known for it's longevity.
Manx cats are best known as being entirely tailless and it is the distinguishing characteristic of the breed, although many have a small 'stub' of a tail.
The Manx originates from the Isle of
Man.
Manx cats are sturdily built compact medium sized cats with
a very pleasing friendly round face. They are well muscled
and balanced and have strong longer hind legs enabling them
to jump and run extremely well.
Manx can occur in
either shorthair or longhair versions, both inside and outside
the Isle of Man. The longhaired variety is called Cymric in
some associations and simply Longhaired Manx in others.
