That's just precious! I love watching my dog play with his feline sister and brother. He loves them so much and he will even take his rawhide chew-thing over to the cats to 'share' with them. Now that's camaraderie!

Very cute. Did you notice the little kink in the kitten's tail? It looks like someone might have caught it in a door.

Those two sure are cute. And that's one patient dog.
Chloe -a cow kitty like the one in the video- also has a bent tail. She was born with the tip of her tail bent in the shape of an "L". Maybe it's something genetic? It sure looked funny when she was younger and her tail was so stiff she shaked it like a little stick.

That sometimes shows up with Siamese cats, that little kink. The legend is that in ancient Siam, a Siamese cat was asked to guard the rings that one of the princesses had placed on his tail, while she bathed. The cat kinked his tail firmly to make sure that the rings stayed in place and nothing was lost. Because of that one very careful little cat, all Siamese are supposed to have kinked tails in honor of that cat's devotion to his princess.

It's considered a tail fault in the show ring. I had a litter born in which every kitten had corkscrew, L-shaped or moderately bent tails. Never did that breeding again, but they all found wonderful homes.

CBM, other videos with that kitten and dog show the kitten much younger, but with the kink in its tail. I suspect the kitten was born that way.
