Expected to unveil 'rumpy', 'stumpy' and 'longy' sub-breeds
A project which is looking to map the genome of the Manx cat is progressing, but needs more cash to carry out its second set of tests.
It is attempting to find out why our nation's felines have evolved without a tail, and why a variation exists between the 'rumpy', 'stumpy' and 'longy' sub-breeds.
So far a healthy cat called Bonnag has had her genome mapped.
The project's head scientist Rachel Glover explains what the plan is now:
King to visit the Isle of Man
It will mark His Majesty King Charles III's first appearance as Lord of Mann
Court for taxi driver accused of asking customer to perform sex acts
45-year-old accused of causing 'public outrage'
