I will have a real post up tomorrow.
In the meanwhile, hear are photos of Earless or Tailless Cats!
the Japanese Bobtail
This breed of cat was seen as lucky and friendly in ancient Japan, because apparently the more tail you had, the more they suspected you of demonic soul-sucking plans. The waving good-luck cat (which you can find mini-versions of in Asian souvenir stores) and Hello Kitty are bobtails.
the Scottish Fold
They aren't exactly earless, but they're fairly small and folded down nearly flat against their heads. Their tails on the other hand are your standard length. I think they look adorable, like long-tailed teddy bears!
