The story behind their history is interesting in itself, making them domestic cats to look forward to having. The Japanese Bobtail cats are well-known for their tail that looks like that of a bunny — short that can be rigid or flexible.
So, what is the fun historical data about these felines? History says that the first version of this breed reached Japan as a present to their emperor from the Chinese ruler. These cats began to spread within the nation not only as imperial pets but they played other important roles, including the following:
- Protectors of silkworms
- Guardians of the grain supplies
The versions of this breed with a tricolor coat have become a famous symbol of good luck.
These felines are healthy in general. But they may develop a few medical problems, such as abnormalities with their bones or spinal, due to their genetic components. When getting a Japanese Bobtail, ask the breeder about the history of the specific animal you are getting.
