Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Curious, Sweet, Playful
With Manx for the Memories, you're actually getting part kitty, part bunny! This adorable, friendly guy hops around like a bunny and even has a cute little bunny tail to match! Manx is super sweet and loves people. He’s not a needy boy, though – if you’re busy, he will happily entertain himself.
Manx has doesn't let his bunny-hop gait stop him from playing and running around! He loves playing fetch, chasing wand toys, and munching on catnip toys. He will make little noises when he's playing or wants attention as his way of telling you how excited or happy he is! He obsesses over your shoes and purse (he might just wanna know where you've been, or maybe his favorite movie is The Devil Wears Prada). He loves a cozy spot... any nook, box, bucket, or cave he can lay in is his jam, especially if there's a soft blanket on the bottom. He also loves his scratching tower and scratch pads, and he never scratches furniture!
Manx is actually a Manx cat, a tail-free orange tabby boy who is extra cute and fuzzy. Along with being a Manx he was born with Manx Syndrome, which means his spine and spinal nerves didn't develop normally; he needs his human to press gently on his bladder three times a day to "express" it and help him go pee. It is super easy once you get the hang of it, and APA! will show you how! His foster just plops him onto a pee pad, puts a Churu treat next to it to distract him, and then she can easily express him in 15-30 seconds. She says this process takes less time than she spends on litterbox duty for her own cats! Since he's incontinent, Manx requires some extra medical care, which right now includes a special diet and some meds, and he’s good about all of that.
Manx has lived with other cats and with dogs and is fine with them as long as they’re respectful and friendly to him. He’s really a people cat and loves people the best, including kids.
The perfect forever home for Manx is one with people who can continue his routine, which is working great for him (and it's so easy), as well as give him lots of love and attention! He would happily live with other cat-friendly cats and most dogs, but he's really all about his people and just wants to be wherever you are. If you want to meet this little bunny-cat, contact us to set up a meet and greet!
Caring for an incontinent cat is easier than you may think. Want proof? Check out this video: bit.ly/CatExpressionDemo
All APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team.
