It typically costs $50 to $150 to adopt a Manx from a shelter or rescue organization. The adoption fee usually covers an initial exam, preventatives, spay/neuter, microchipping, and vaccines. Conversely, buying a Manx from a breeder can be prohibitively expensive, often costing $500 to $1,500. Buying a Manx kitten from a breeder is also not recommended due to the welfare concerns of contributing to the breeding of Manx cats with shortened or missing tails.

The easiest way to adopt a Manx is through a shelter or cat-oriented rescue. A great place to start is with a breed search on Adopt a Pet, which will show you all the available Manx cats in your search radius.
