my cat bread with a manx cat(manx cats are tailess)and ended up having 3 tailess kittens, they were born may 2nd and are ready to be given away,we are keeping one but we have 2 that we are giving away, one of them had worms as most kittens do so we took him to the vet and the vet said that manx kittens have "different" insides so it is not good for them to eat hard food. that means they will probably be on soft food for the rest of their lives…also one of the kittens(the one that had worms) her stomach is still hard which is a side effect of worms and she has trouble going to the bathroom, sometimes for her,#2 is very painful. would anyone like this kitten or the other one that we are giving away? the other one is a tiger cat and the one with the weird stomach,since the trip to the vet has been getting better,is black and white,they are adorable kittens but does anyone want the responsibility of taking care of these kittens?if there are anymore questions i will add more details later
to the second answer, we have already scheduled the mother to be fixed and yes they do have a different anatomy, unless you want to bring that argument up with my vet, which i invite you to do…be my guest



i have a manx cat i love her
Hi – I am blessed with a manx cat also
I’ve never heard of the theory that they have different insides and therefore need to be fed soft food
My cats eat a combination of both raw meat & Eagle Pack premium holistic blend biscuits.
Kittens need to be wormed fortnightly when they are young – then monthly – and then every 3 months after 6 months of age.
Your vet nurse should be able to provide you with a worming schedule.
I’d get more advice on the feeding aspect
I’ve never heard this before…
Cats are cats regardless of their breed – and their anatomy is the same — surely~!
Now is the time to have the Mother Cat desexed aswell – to prevent anymore unwanted kittens.
wel send pics
interstedin females manx or nonmanx just wanna help out
I had to click on your question beacase I too am the owner of a beautiful manx cat. She is nine years old and she is white with gray patchs hence her name patchs. I have always fed her a diet of both can and dry Whiskas friskies or iams and Science diet and she is fine. I would ask for a second opnion. I wish I could take the black and white one since that color is my favourite but I have 4 already>I also love the breed so it would have been nice to have a B&W manx. Good luck they sound like lovely cats.
