How long is your cat's tail?

We recently had our puppies' tails docked. I didn't think to keep them but the vet offered them to my kids for show and tell or to take to scout camp and put in an unsuspecting scout's pillowcase. They declined.

My little By Bo has a stumpy tail that is probably only 3 inches long. And is all crooked at the end. I love it though. We call him sausage tail. I should measure Aki's it is reallly long. but she is not very good at holding still.

I have 2 kitties with tails exactly like Motochicks, in a previous message.
They are inside cats, sisters, with manx bloodlines, and when they were little, I have never seen cats that could wreak such destruction. Fortunately I'm not a very fussy person!

Barbie's tail is 10.5" she's a small cat, so this tail looks long on her.

Enza's tail is 11.5" long. she has a long body, so her tail looks short and thick. When I can find Aggie I'll measure her tail too.

ok here we go:

Razz, the old man - 11 inches
Robbie & River (litter mates, part Siamese with a crook at the end of their tails) - 10 inches
Lucy - the woman of the house - 9.5 inches

The best cats I have ever had have all been Manx cats. Well except one beautiful little petite siamese that could hunt like crazy. If my DH ever gives in to my excessive requests for a cat I would like another Manx. I have had two stumpies and one with a half tail.

I love my Schnauzers but I really want a cat, I haven't had one in 6 years after having one all my life!

I can't imagine a cat-less life. If he can have dogs; you deserve to be able to have a couple of cats to balance the dogginess of your life.
