Japanese Bobtail

The Japanese Bobtail is a domestic cat breed with a distinctive bobtail that resembles the tail of a rabbit rather than that of other cats. The variety is native to Japan; however, it is now spread worldwide. The breed has been recognized in Japan for generations, and it appears regularly in mythology and art. Japanese Bobtails, like most other breeds, may be practically any color (or colors, arranged in any number of patterns). Predominantly white calicoes are particularly popular among Japanese and cat fanciers, and are well portrayed in folklore, however various colorations are also permitted under breed standards.

This breed is suitable for families. They are good pets for youngsters because of their friendly nature and interact with them through mild chirpy noises. This breed is very drawn to water, is quite intelligent, and is recognized for its lively nature, which is constantly full of energy and mischief. Bobtails are an extremely loyal breed that make excellent friends. Because of its short fur, this breed sheds very little to moderately. Its coat is simple to maintain. Just like any other species, there may be a variety of health issues that are tied to heredity. However, Japanese Bobtails are typically healthy cats. The recessive gene and the shorter tails are not linked to any spinal or bone problems.
