Manx Cat 2008 Safari Ltd Farm

Safari isn`t drowning us in tame cats !
Actually they only made three, and two are from the same mould : A grey Tabby and an orange Tabby    

So much the more wonderful is the 3rd cat : A beautyful MANX-cat  
A small unpretentious figure among all the gorgeous dinos, Vanishing Wild, American wildlife etc..I think very few actually notice her  

Most of us know that the Manx lacks most or all of the tail.
But his build is also unusual. The hind legs are long and powerful, and the head is round.
The owners of a Manx tell, that it is more like having a dog in the house, than a cat  
They are curious, active, and very playful..almost like most Oriental cats ( the latter my comment), but not nearly as noisy   

So I decided to make a little walkaround of this unusual model that really, really has grown on me

She's adorable! Congrats! Indeed, Manx cats are like dogs, they are one of my favorite breeds of cats, they're so fun!  

Susanne, cats are not easy to do im toy shape but with these sharp pictures I have to agree that Safari performed a very good work. It must be a way to persuade the brand to stop marking their wonderful figures with these invasive numbers. Nevertheless, the figure is wonderful!

Thanks, Kelsey and Croger

Yes !!!!!!! They do that all the time ! Isn`t it irritating ?  

This is a great model-I have it myself-would be great if they did it in a few different colours-an easy way to make money!!:) :)

This model is marked 2007, but it seems nobody really noticed him  

One of the most well known features of the Manx cat is the lack of tail

Wonderful newcomer, indeed the Manx cats are special, and this one is a very cute sample! I just wish Safari wouldn't sabotage their models with the numbers. They could just do like Schleich.  

Very nice cat. I used to have a cat with a shortened manx tail. The vet said that is it the same thing that causes it as spina bifida in humans, only because they have more vertebrae with the tail it doesn't cause them the problems it does humans.

I wish I had gotten that cat when I had the chance, now I can't find it in any of my stores. Great figure though, I only wish that Safari would be more discreet about their number things, place it on the belly than on the legs where you can see it.
