18 Cute Cats With Extremely Long (And Short) Tails To Show That Purrfection Comes In All Shapes And Sizes

Cats are all purrfect, that's a known fact. No matter their color, no matter their size, no matter their level of chaos, cats are purrfection. And if you're someone who still doubts that, we are here to prove it. We suppose that seeing cats and their awwdorable bellies, or gently touching cats' very boopable noses, or carefully holding cats' meawgical beans is not enough for some too see cats for the pawfection that they are. So maybe what they'll see today will be just enough.

When one thinks of cat tails, they probably don't think there is that much special about them. It's just a tail, right? Wrong. It's a cat's tail, which immediately makes it purrfect. And when that cat's tail is extra long or extra short, like the ones in this listicle, then that's simply extra purrfection.

"Does my cat have an abnormally long tail? I don’t know that I’ve seen another like it."

via u/criderslider

"She was a rescue and we weren't sure she was going to make it with the all of the issues she had. She is the best cat I've ever had, super tolerant, cuddly, a little wild, good with kids, maybe a little noisy. She also has the longest frickin tail I've ever seen on a cat to the point I feel like it's abnormal. Anyone else have a cat with a tail like this?"
