MANX CAT


Manx Cat is a peculiar cat. It is from Isle of Man and it hasn’t got tail. But today all the tail-less cats are called Manx. They have got a genetic mutation very common on the Island.
“Folk beliefs claim the Manx cats came from the Spanish Armada; a ship foundered on the cliffs at Spanish Head on the coast of the Isle of Man. According to legend, the cats on the ship swam ashore and became an established breed. Legend has it that the cats originally went onboard the Spanish ship in the Far East.”
Nowadays, white Manx cats are very very rare. In some cases, white Manx cats may be worth well over $4,000.
