What is a "Manx"?

The Manx is a unique and distinctive cat breed known for its taillessness or short tail. They are believed to have originated from the Isle of Man, a small island between England and Ireland, and have a long history of being kept as companions and working cats. Manx cats have a solid, muscular body with a rounded appearance and a short back. They have large hind legs and a characteristic "bunny hop" gait when they run. The most distinguishing feature of the Manx cat is their lack of a tail, which can range from a completely tailless "rumpy" to a partial tail known as a "stumpy." Manx cats have a dense double coat of fur that can come in a variety of colors and patterns. They are known for their playful and active nature, often engaging in games of chase, climb, and jump. Manx cats are also known for their intelligence and adaptability, and they can make affectionate and loyal companions. They are often described as being independent yet social, with a strong personality and a unique charm that makes them stand out among other cat breeds.
