American Bobtail

American Bobtail - Cat Facts

American Bobtails are relatively new and an uncommon breed of cat.  Their most notable feature is its stubby "bobbed" tail which about half the length of a normal cat's tail.  The American Bobtail cat is not related to the Japanese Bobtail cat despite the similar name and physical type — the breeding programs are entirely unrelated and the gene causing the mutation is entirely different.

The American bobtail is a very sturdy breed, with both short or longhaired coats. Their coat is shaggy rather than thick or fluffy. Their eyes can be any color, with a strong emphasis on the "wild" tabby appearance in show animals.
