Tails

Our tails are something you humans don’t have. I’ve heard you have tail bones, but no tails. Pity. We can smack others with our tails. We also use them to communicate. And some of us like to play with each other’s tails. Even my girl has been known to give my tail a gentle tug. I never understood why. She’s not a cat. She’s just too silly!

Our mood can be conveyed by the very movement of our tails. Spot was very expressive with his tail. More so than I ever was. My girl would recite names to him, such as mine or Isis, and Spot’s tail would wag even harder because he loved us all.

Some people thought he wagged his tail because he was angry. Spot was hardly angry. He was so happy go lucky that it drove me crazy at times. He did have a temper, but it didn’t flare that much. He just like to wag his tail a lot.
