O gato '''Manx''' (en {{lang-gv|Manninagh}}) é unha raza de [[gato]] doméstico (''Felis catus'') orixinaria da [[Illa de Man]], coa particularidade de ter de forma natural unha mutación que lle acurta o rabo. Moitos gatos Manx teñen un pequeno cacho de rabo, pero os gatos Manx son mellor coñecidos por non ter nada del; esta é a característica máis distintiva da raza, xunto coas patas traseiras alongadas e unha cabeza redondeada. Manx cats come in all coat colours and patterns, though all-white specimens are rare, and the coat range of the original stock was more limited. Long-haired variants are sometimes considered a separate breed, the [[Cymric (cat)|Cymric]]. Manx are prized as skilled hunters, and thus have often been sought by farmers with rodent problems, and been a preferred [[ship's cat]] breed. They are said to be social, tame and active. An old local term for the cats on their home island is '''''stubbin<!--No known reliable source on or in the Manx language or Manx English dialect capitalises that.-->'''''. Manx have been exhibited in cat shows since the 1800s, with the first known breed standard published in 1903.
