My fiance and I are thinking of adopting a couple of kittens whose mother appears to be a rumpy Cymric. I say "appears to" because she doesn't have papers or anything. The kittens are of... uh.. uncertain parentage. (The mother is an outdoor cat.)
The two that we are considering have tails, although one of their siblings has just a short stump. My question is about whether these tailed kittens should have their tails docked. I've read that tailed Cymrics often get arthritis.
Any insights appreciated.
