A question for Vino's momma
"Tigger" wrote in message news:bm9ueW1vdXo=.ddd3d42170c78feefa43e480fd31389e @1086925696.nulluser.com.. .. Is Vino a Rumpy? I was looking at his pictures and I noticed that he seems to have a bit more of a tail than our local Manx. Our local Manx had no tail at all and seemed to have more of a ruff than Vino. His owners gave it a haircut though and it never quite grew back the same. We were never sure if it was a male or a female it was so furry. Although we think it was female, as it did not appreciate our girls. No, Vino's not a Manx. He's half Japanese Bobtail and half Birman. With Japanese Bobtails, you only need one parent to have the gene and all the kittens have short tails. Vino's was the shortest out of his litter though. There were 2 black boys, one had a kinky tail with 2 bends, it looked like a little piggy tail, and one had about 2 inches of tail, straight. Then there was a grey girl who had a tad more than Vino. Vino's is just a nub, I'd say about 1 cm. But he can move it, it's very cute when his butt fur wiggles. His butt fur is longer than the rest of his fur and he can fluff it up like a bunny tail. He doesn't like me feeling around back there though and I have to admit it feels weird to touch the nub. -- Britta Sandpaper kisses, a cuddle and a purr. I have an alarm clock that's covered in fur!

Thanks, we were considering a Manx for our next cat, but we weren't too sure how they get along with other cats. The one we've seen is great with people, but not so good with the girls. Although it went a bit feral at one point from being outside so much. I don't know if you can just go by breed characteristics. Every cat is different. Also, I've heard that purebred Manx's can sometimes have problems...can't remember what now...was it blindness? Not sure. Oh, and they can have problems with their butt or hips or something in case of extreme rumpy-ness. I noticed Vino seemed a little less stalky than "our" Manx, with a smaller face. They certainly are a well built kitty. Vino, a small face? Hmmm, I always thought he has a huge googly head :-) Very wide cheekpads, etc. He also has really long back legs so that when he's standing, his butt is higher than his shoulders. Looks really funny! -- Britta Sandpaper kisses, a cuddle and a purr. I have an alarm clock that's covered in fur!
