The Manx cat is now quite scarce in the UK with only a
small number of Manx breeders in the UK dedicated to
continuing this wonderful cat breed.
This has resulted in a decrease in the number of Manx
kittens being registered with GCCF.
At one point, the Isle of Man government established a
cattery in Douglas, the island's capital to ensure the
survival of the
Manx cat. Taken over by the Douglas
Corporation in 1964, interested local people or tourists
could order Manx kittens. However, the Manx government
closed the cattery in 1989, believing that the kittens would be better raised by breeders in a home situation and
all the kittens and cats were found private homes on the
island.

kittens. Our breeding programme is aimed to enable us to
maintain the quality of the Manx breed, we feel
temperament is just as important as physical
appearance because Manx are renowned for their
affection, loyalty, and devotion to their people.

raised in our home as part of
our family. They leave us at 13
weeks old,

weeks Pet Plan weeks insurance cover and
a bag of their normal diet and
favourite things to help settle
them in their new homes.
