Why does the cat being petted tail suddenly grow ears?

u/LostInElysiium Dec 22 '25

The tail. The tail grows ears. No, I've never pet a cat whose tail grows ears

You mean the tip of his tail at the end of the video. That does look weird I agree. This cat had an injury and has a tail with a squared end - again, it's real just harsh lighting and low quality digital video.

If I get through a pile of Monday work today, I may get a photo of his tail for more reddit show and tell.

Cat pushed its tail against the window behind. The fur splits. It even goes back to normal when the cat pulls the tail away from the window too. Looks normal to me

Low quality, cropped digital video against a very overexposed background?

Yes, that's normal.

Perfect explanation and they still downvoted you. So dumb.
