Good to know

  • Comes from the same Isle of Man stock as the Manx.
  • Tail lengths range from none at all to a full stump, each with its own name.
  • The powerful hind legs give it a rabbit-like hop at speed.

Who it suits

Owners who have read up on the breed's spinal risks and will buy from a careful breeder.

Care

Comb the double coat twice a week. Ask the breeder about spinal health in the line before buying.

History of the breed

Longhaired kittens turned up in Manx litters on the Isle of Man for as long as anyone recorded them. Canadian breeders began registering them separately in the 1960s, naming the breed after Cymru, the Welsh name for Wales.
