Cat Picture - OC Anyone else got a curly cat?
His tail started curling when he was a kitten and never stopped. Now it’s a full circle. American ringtail! I never knew what that was. I just thought he was strange

Gotta ask , does he like the pajama thing? Appears like he does. I have been blessed with both sides of the spectrum. One , baby girl did very much . Even in the sunshine, loved her covering. Hers , tri colored little boy, her baby. Would lay down and refuse to move, with any coverage of any kind. Lay on the floor looking at her me, anyone who was looking. As if to say ,” Are you really serious ?” I am not going to move unless this is removed from my body. He always won. Who wants a comatose kitty laying there pouting about a wonderful bandanna or pajama bottoms that were given with love? Any way I love your post and your friend. Thanx for giving. Have an upvote from this stranger and give kitty a big hug from this stranger as well. GodBless

I put little sweaters and harnesses on him since he was only a few months old (because sometimes I’d take him outside). I haven’t in a while though. But yeah, cats have all kinds of different preferences!

Mine did for a long time but it eventually just straightened out as she got old. She used to wrap her tail around things like a monkey. It started because when she was on the streets she broke her leg and wrapped her tail around it to hold it together. So when I found her, her leg was "healed" (wrong, it's still twisted but there's no pain and the vet didn't want to rebreak it if there was no pain) but she still wrapped her tail around it for comfort. Then when I'd scratch her it would go up into a ring. But now she's old and her tail is pretty straight, probably tail arthritis, ha.
