Felis catus

Fun Fact

Manx cats are sometimes called 'stubbin' or 'rumpy' cats on the Isle of Man, and their tailless gene can cause spinal issues known as 'Manx syndrome.'

Famous for being tailless or having only a stub, the Manx originated on the Isle of Man. Rounded body, deep flank, and hind legs longer than front — giving a rabbit-like hop. Extremely loyal and playful with a quiet voice.
