This is an example of what I call mid-tail or a half tail cat. I'm not sure how to describe it. Among the local feral cats there are some genetic oddities including various bobtails and twisted tails. There are also a few mid-tail or half-tail cats. This is not due to injury; it is a genetic mutation.

 Overall this tom seems pretty healthy. Whatever the genetic oddity that's involved it doesn't seem to be hurting him in any way. There might be three or four "mid-tail" cats in the colony.

Anyway you look at it, he's a beautiful boy. Well, that's my opinion anyway.
