Some kitties lack the fine tail the others have. Bobtail kitties are quite hard to find because of their shy nature. Bobtails can get cold very quickly because of their thin fur is always a summer-coat since they come from a region of tropical islands. Bobtails are good vertical jumpers, but not very good when trying to cover a distance by jumping. This is because on their island home they have to jump straight up to reach the ripe fruits growing on the tropical trees. The lack of a tail makes their balance poor so when they try to jump long distances with forward momentum they often fall over or crash! These tail-less kitties have an exceptional sweet tooth! Being raised on sugary flower nectar, coconuts, bananas, and papayas they crave sweets and will do almost anything for them! Bobtails are skilled swimmers, known to fight the strong ocean currents to catch small fish, but their coat produces little oil to resist the water so these kitties don’t idle in the water for the risk of getting wet. Bobtails are known to be overly affectionate. Often, a Bobtail will find a small animal such as a mouse to care for as its own ‘pet’. Bobtails are loyal to their ‘pets’, bringing them food and cleaning them. Bobtails’ tongues are extra-long and slick so that they can be inserted into the delicate tropic flowers to lap up nectar. Instead of cleaning with their tongues, Bobtails often bathe in the ocean or take dust baths. They lick the more sensitive parts such as their tear ducts and paws. They can clean wounds with the soft tongue. The saliva of Bobtails is said to have healing powers and speed up the growth of cells, however, this is widely considered a myth. The claws of these kitties are very narrow and razor sharp. They are designed to cut through hard shells of coconuts and other fruits with ease and can be deadly weapons if kitties turn on each other, although Bobtails are known to be exceptionally peaceful. Bobtails often have brightly colored coats that dazzle in the sunlight. [quote] this is holy joy.
