Answer 5

Straight up is definitely a happy tail. My last cat had a curl at the top which made it look like a little question mark walking through the room. My current cat's tail is hooked directly to his ears. When I say his name, he whapps it on the couch. When we're in bed about to crash for the night, he kind of peacefully curls it up and down. Also, when you pet them and they raise their butts up in the air, it's because when their mom's groomed them as kittens, they'd lick down the kittens back and teach it to raise it's tail so they could clean their butts. I pet my cat, and up his butt goes. I keep telling him "I am NOT cleaning that. Put your butt down."
