it's the last full week of summer!! We finally had some cooler weather today. Since when is 68 degrees chilly!?!!
So a fun question today; I hope!
How long are your cat's tails?
So far only Noodles has cooperated when I pulled out the tape measure.
Her tail is a little over 10"; maybe 10 1/4". I only got one shot to measure her. I tried Mooch first and she was like "nuh uh."
The tape measure I used is small; but still makes noise. I may need to get the one out of my sewing box later. I think Mooch's tail is longer. Both are short hair; so there is no floof making them look longer.
One of my Mom's cat's has a short tail. I've never asked if the vet thinks it's just a shorter than average tail; or if there could have been a reason behind it. Growing up we had a cat who lost a bit of her tail in an accident. It didn't look obvious and fortunately I was young enough that I only remember the bandage and picking her up from the vet. Mom's current cat's tail reminds me of that old cats in some ways. I don't think she has ever had a reason to be x-rayed for us to know. She is also a smaller cat though. Mooch and Noodles are good size cats. They look unhealthy at anything below 10lb.
