American Bobtail Characteristics and Temperament

The American Bobtail is a medium to large, powerful and athletic cat with a "wild" look reminiscent of the North American Bobcat. Its shortened tail, the result of a natural genetic mutation, measures between 2.5 and 10 cm. The coat can be short or semi-long in all colors and patterns.

Often described as the "golden retriever of cats," the American Bobtail has a gentle, affectionate and devoted temperament. It is intelligent, easy to train and can even learn to walk on a leash. In apartments in Montreal or Laval, it adapts well with enough play and stimulation. With a life expectancy of 13 to 15 years, the American Bobtail is a robust and endearing companion for Quebec families.
