Introduction This breeding policy accompanies and supplements the Manx Registration Policy and Standard of Points and the GCCF general breeding policy and should be read in conjunction with those documents. The aim of this breeding policy is to give advice and guidance to ensure breeders observe what is considered “best practice” in breeding the Manx cat. The over-riding objective, as with all breeds, is to produce quality, healthy cats with good type and to continue to improve the Manx cat standard. The overall aims of the breeding policy areas are as follows: a) To promote the breeding of healthy Manx cats with sound conformation, good temperament and free from any defects known to be heritable traits. b) To encourage the breeding of Manx which conform as closely as possible to the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy (GCCF) Standard of Points (SOP). c) To further the health, welfare and care of Manx Cats at all times, in keeping with their role as domesticated companion cats with their unique “dog-like” personality.
