FAQs

Are American Bobtail cats good pets?

Yes, American Bobtail cats make excellent pets owing to their playful, affectionate, intelligent, and social nature. They form strong bonds with their human families, are good with children and other pets, and adapt well to various living environments including apartments. Their dog-like personalities, empathy, and adaptability even make them suitable as therapy cats.

How rare are American Bobtail cats?

American Bobtail cats are considered a rare breed primarily because they have only recently been recognised by major cat associations. Their rarity is due to the limited population and selective breeding focused on their distinctive short, bobbed tail, which also contributes to their higher market value.

How much do American Bobtail cats cost?

American Bobtail cats typically cost between £480 and £960 (approximately $600 to $1,200) when purchased from reputable breeders, though prices may vary based on breeder reputation and pedigree. Adoption fees can be significantly lower, generally ranging from £40 to £240 ($50 to $300), often including vaccinations and spaying/neutering.

What is the difference between a Manx and an American Bobtail cat?

The key difference between a Manx and an American Bobtail is their tail and origin. The American Bobtail, developed in the United States, has a naturally short, bobbed tail that varies in length and shape, along with a muscular athletic build and dog-like temperament. The Manx, originating from the Isle of Man, is known for being tailless or having a very short tail due to a genetic mutation and typically has a rounded body shape with different personality traits.
