  2. Mr Minx got weighed and x-rayed today, he's currently 19.2 pounds. Nothing is wrong, just a standard check up but because of his Manx syndrome we've opted for X-rays every few years just to check his spine and joints. All in great shape considering he's a rumpy riser with no tail, a more pronounced case. I asked if his weight was an issue but the vet said his bones are denser than usual and he's very muscular, which we laughed at. 😂 He's not fat, just big boned!

  14. #Celtic #MythologyMonday: #FinnmacCool is depicted as a magical, benevolent giant. In a #Manx Gaelic tale, Fionn and the Buggane (a Manx huge ogre-like creature) fought at Kirk Christ Rushen. As Finn fled across the sea, the buggane tore out one of its own teeth and hit Fionn with it. The tooth fell into the water and became a chicken rock, and Fionn cursed the tooth and explained why it was a danger to sailors.
