My husband and I have been feeding and taming stray cats for 25 years
now!  In all that time, there have only been a handful of cats that
didn't come when spoken to.  One was a cat that we thought may have
been abused, another is this one we are feeding now.  He's been around
for about 6 months now and is just now letting us touch him. He's a
beautiful cat- has siamese markings, with a bobtail, with blue eyes.
Sort of like a ragdoll with shorter fur.  We've never had a cat
without a tail. My husband felt around his tail and noticed a ridge or
hump just above where the tail would normally be, then there is a
sunken area with a little puff of fur.  Is this normal??  My husband
thinks someone may have forcibly removed his tail, and that's why he's
so skittish.  We can't get close enough to see if there is any scar
tissue.

We ae from California, and just moved here to SC five years ago, and
we are amazed at how many stray cats are here- alot of them would be
sought after and would  bring good money in CA and get adopted fast.
This is the 3rd beautiful adult with siamese markings, blue eyes and a
bobtail that has surfaced.

Thanks,
