We’re adopting a five-year-old female Manx cat and are wondering if they have any special/different behaviors of which we should be aware. We want to be the best Manx parents possible! :)

    Good for you!!! Manx are wonderful cats. We have a disabled stumpy manx who’s the light of my life. Manx are sorta known as “the dogs of the cat world” because they’re very loyal, bond closely, and even will play fetch with you!

    How long is your new pet’s tail? Nubby manx frequently have arthritis simply because of missing the last vertebrae on their backs. Bear in mind, too, that manx are very slow to mature, and don’t really reach full physical maturity until they’re about five years old.

    ETA more stuff I remember: they’re shaped much like rabbits, with long hind legs and short forelegs. As a result they have a tendency to “hop” instead of the smooth walking gait you see in other breeds. It’s the funniest thing you’ll ever see, so take lots of pictures. She’ll have you laughing your socks off just watching her hop. Also, they love to play but no so much with airborne things. They’ll chase a shoestring all over the floor but pretty much ignore any toys in the air.

    Here’s some more information I think you’ll find helpful from fanciers.com
