FAQs
Is a Manx cat rare?
Although it’s true that Manx cats are hard to find outside certified Manx breeders, they aren’t really that rare. All-white coloured Manxes, however, are very difficult, if not almost impossible, to find.
Is a Manx cat a good pet?
Yes, Manx cats make excellent pets due to their dog-like behaviour and affectionate and devoted demeanour. They’re also highly social and enjoy being around their owners and playing with them.
Why do Manx cats have no tails?
The lack of tails in Manx cats is due to the result of genetic mutation which might have been caused by the inbreeding of British Shorthairs on the Isle of Manx. However, not all Manx cats are tail-less.
What is the life expectancy of a Manx cat?
The Manx cat lifespan can extend to 14 years, but as each cat is different, it can vary depending on nutrition, lifestyle, and environment.
