The Manx breed is one of the oldest breeds of cats today.
They are believe to have originated on the Isle of Man, just off the coast of Great Britain .There are four main breeds of tailless cat (American bobtail, Cymeric, Japanese bobtail and Manx) 

The Manx is such a fun ,loving,delightful,playful athlete.They are an excellent choice for a child's pet if they grow up with them,They are rated 1 of the most compatible cats with children and other pets.

Manx has an unusual walk sometimes referred as the "Manx hop"Their hind legs are slightly longer than their front legs,which may be the reason they are such excellent jumpers.

They are mostly quiet cats and love to show you their affection.Manx comes in all sorts of color variations and patterns,including solid colors and bi-colors as well. CFA recognizes all colors except those involving chocolate,lavender or the Himalayan pattern.

They have a big personality and are good hunters,but only if they are allowed to be.
Manx are very active and loyal to their owner/owners and can even be taught to walk on a leash.
They are a great choice for a companion and can even be taught to do tricks .

Breeding the Manx cat can be a real challenge because of the lethal gene that sometimes crops up in litters.The tailless gene that is lethal when breeding 2 rumpies together into or beyond the third generation ,thats where the tailed
Manx is essential for the healthy continuation of breeding this wonderful cat breed.
Manx is a solid, rounded ,thick-coated short haired cat.
The tailless rump should be higher than the shoulders.There head should be large and broad.

There are 4 recognized categories of the Manx cat !


Rumpy

completely tailless,you can usually see a dimple at the base of the spine,where the tail should usually be."This is the True Manx cat type" This is the desired show type !

Rumpy Riser
usually with 1-3 vertebrae fused to the end of the spine.Looks like a tiny knob where the tail would normally be.

Stumpy 
1-3 normal vertebra's , giving the cat a short but movable tail-stub.


Longy 
 with almost full tail length.

Manx cats can be both short or long haired. They mature slowly and can take up to 5 years to reach their full growth and potential , the plus to this is that you may get many years of showing enjoyment out of your Manx.

We try to make sure every kitten placed is very healthy .

With the lethal gene cropping up at times we do not allow our kittens to go to their new homes till they are at-least 16 weeks old and after they have had their vet check.By that time the Manx Syndrome signs would be visual ,this is the only way to be reasonable sure you are getting a kitten free from this condition.

Once kittens get past 6 weeks their care is minimal,getting them past the first 6 weeks is what makes them so hard to raise.

The only exception would be if you were purchasing a tailed Manx that had his/her tail docked at 4-6 days old.

We can place docked-tailed manx kittens in homes at around 3 months of age ,fore it is very rare for a docked tailed to suffer from the Manx Syndrome.

These are quiet cats and they don't seem to need a tail to show their affection. 
Manx Cats are not easy to find, and we feel we have a good representation of this breed.
