Ask the vet - Cat

My cat’s tail is bent. Should I be worried?

Vet at FirstVet answers:

Look and feel the tip of the tail. You should book an appointment with a veterinarian if your cat seems to be in pain, is licking its tail a lot or if you find a wound on the tail.

If your cat seems completely fine then it is likely a hereditary defect or an old wound that has healed.
