BODY
Shape:		 The short back forms a smooth, continuous arch from shoulders to rump, curving at the rump to form the desirable round look. Length of back is in proportion to the entire cat, height of hindquarters equal to length of body. Males may be somewhat longer. Because the Longhair Manx has longer coat over the rump area and breeches, the body may appear longer. Cobby Cobby
Size: Medium, compact and well-balanced Medium Medium
Boning: Sturdy bone structure. Manx is stout in appearance with broad chest and well-sprung ribs.
