No, they were with tails. Conceived and born within a metre of my bed-head 15 years ago so I can hardly complain. But, as you say, sad. Chief (Nabpcat) stopped hunting a year or so ago - that had an upside, especially if the sound of rodent skulls being munched under the bed keeps one awake. His sister (Abpcat) was always more lady-like. Their sire, when not attempting incest, was otherwise the perfect gentleman. Came in one evening, refused food, sat with head on bottom step of the stairs and with a soft thump twenty minutes later dropped dead.
