A Little About Senan Cattery.
Hello. My name is Nancy Sproelich. I am the owner of Senan Cattery. I
raise and show Japanese Bobtail cats in both CFA and
TICA.
I really enjoy this breed,
because they are so loveable and friendly.
The Bobtails are very good house cats as well as show cats. One
of my cats, JB, placed second in the region and 18th internationally
the year he was shown. Currently I'm showing Dickens and he is doing very well.

A Little About Japanese Bobtail Cats.
Here is a little information about this breed. They have a
short tail which has a folded shape that makes the tail look even
smaller. In some positions it may look similar to the powder puff,
such as in rabbit tails... which explains its name: Bobtail. Another
curious aspect is the fact that the back part of its body is taller,
because the hind legs are longer. This detail makes the Bobtail
inflect slightly his hind legs, in order to maintain the body
level. It is, at the same time, thin and well muscled, and its head
is triangular. The color which was most difficult to settle genetically,
and the favorite with the Japanese, is the tricolor, called mi-ke: white,
decorated with black and red patches which are well defined. There are
other varieties, the tricolor, known as tortoiseshell in black, red and
beige, and the bicolors black and white, and red and white. There are
cats with one color coat, which can be black, red or white.
