How long is your cat's tail?

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.

Ummm... They are my dogs. He likes large dogs and instead he has miniature schnauzers. Heidi loves cats, they don't like her hyperness. Maggie is blind and would never know they were there!

I also want an Alpaca and I think my homeowner's association only says no horses, cows, goats or chickens.

My Dear Departed Bozo Kitty (aka the best cat on the planet, way back then anyhow) had no tail.

Since I "inherited" him (with the help of the shaman who also lived in my building - yep she "willed me" to adopt him, and clearly it worked ) at the tender age of 14 or thereabouts, I don't know what became of said tail, but my guess was he lost it somewhere along his long and adventurous life.

All he had left of his tail was a bit of a stub, and it was such a hoot when he was agitated, since that stub would spin around like a little helicopter.

Cooler, who has short hair, appears to have a 12" tail.

Fizler, who is a puffball, appears to have a 13" tail, but that last inch could be all fur. He carries his tail like Pepi Le Pew, straight up, but with the last two inches at a right angle pointing forward.

I figured out the best way to measure Cooler's tail is to get him all mad at the dog, so he holds it up straight and high, then sneak up to him with the ruler! Watch out for those claws, though!

Our aging Tiger T. (Ginger) Cat is what we call 'two rings short of a tail.' His black littermates were bob tailed, and what his tail lacks in length he makes up for in girth; When he puffs that sucker out it is nearly 10" around!

Storm has a 10.5" tail. He's well balanced so it suits him well. (BTW - he's the cat in my avatar)
