Replying to @Nereka Jo 🌼 #greenscreen most Manx have very normal lifespans— it’s the tailless kitties with Manx syndrome (which applies to a bunch of different conditions related to having a malformed spine — Frog has sacrocaudal dysgenesis vs spina bifida or other common presentations of Manx syndrome) who have shorter life spans because of their risk of urinary tract infections, constipation and other problems related to their condition but with good management depending on the severity, a lot of kitty caretakers see their kitties with manx syndrome or similar issues like paralysis live long happy lives. Since Manx syndrome kitties in particular are born with it, you’d also know if your baby has it. 💕 #manxcat#manxsyndrome#incontinence#incontinentcat
