Our cat, a tux, recently suffered a tail injury and the vet is suggesting the tail is cut off because it's apparently fractured close to the base. We haven't a clue how it happened. He came home in the middle of the night with no sign of injury or distress. Only when I noticed his tail was limp did I realise something was wrong.
He will be coming home soon with no tail.
Do most cats cope well without one? He's a bit of an outdoor cat. But he's not a very good climber, so we're worried about how having no tail will affect his balance or ability to run. Does it mean he will find it harder to escape dogs for example by jumping out of harm's way?
