I was told that there is a slight difference in the tail of a siamese cat from other breeds (see details)?

Question

I was told that a siamese cat is able to beld the tip of its tail a bit more than other breeds. Is this true?

Answer 1

Some Siamese have a slight kink at the end of their tail. My Siamese mix did.

Answer 2

Yes!! I have one siamese and one tabby. The siamese seems to beld the tip of its tail better

Answer 3

The kink was a genetic fault that breeders have been eliminating over the last 20 years. No show cat is allowed to have it, but non-show cats sometimes do still show up with it. It's considered a major defect for the show ring but it doesn't interfere with the cat's life.
