Cats
What was once seen as a fault now has a serious following.
Curled tails have also turned up in Russian Blues, Siamese/Orientals, Ocicats, Persians,
Ragdolls, Scottish Fold, Devon Rex and Bengals (interestingly, several of those breeds have
Siamese blood in their ancestry).

The photos above, very clearly showing the curly tail trait, are of Barbara Clark's 4 year old
curly-tailed cat "Bunzy". His brother has a normal straight tail. Bunzy and his brother were
adopted from a cat shelter in Utah, USA at 8 weeks old so nothing is known of their family
history. Bunzy's tail clearly loops over to rest on his left flank with the tail tip pointing
outwards.
A gallery of curly-tailed cats sent in by visitors to Messybeast can be seen at Curly Tailed
Cats (a separate page has been created to improve loading times).
