Hooked on Captain Jack Sparrow HAWK


Animal tails are expressive. On a cat you can tell everything. You can tell if they are annoyed or scared.

But what if the tail is short or hooked like Captain Jack Sparrow HAWK? You then have to read the whole body.

In order to snap a picture, EJ waited till Captain Jack was relaxed and almost drifted off to sleep and quickly put a finger at the hooked tail.

A closer look at the hooked tail.

Though drowsy, Captain Jack automatically clawed the bench in an animal instinct safety reflex action.

  3. That tail is pretty darned irresistible. Our human would be tugging on it gently every chance she got...and maybe being bitten or scratched in the process. LOL.

  11. Interesting tail you have there, Capt'n. Does anyone really know why it is the way it is? Did it get stomped on as a kitten or something?

  13. You're such an amazing, fellow, Captain Jack, and I'll bet your tail never gets caught in the screen door like mine sometimes does, even though my mom is ever so careful.

  21. Hey, Captain -- There is another Captain Jack Sparrow who just showed up at the Animal Rescue site. We thought it was you for a while, but the copy-cat is all black.

    Thought you might be interested.
