How do you get your cat to stop licking constantly?
Your cat is licking because it's fur is dirty or it's skin is itchie from fleas. Give your cat a bath (avoid washing their face), brush her/him, and/or give him/her some Advantage (flea medicine). Remember to brush your cat often. This will feel good, stop the licking, and cut back on fleas.
Will your cat be lost without her tail?
No. The only real use for the tail is balance, but look at the Manx cat. They are born with no tail and are just fine and dandy. If your cat lost her tail in an accident or had it amputated, it may take some getting used to for the cat, but I assure you, she will not be lost. Some cats can even have a happy life with only 3 legs!

If a dog bit of a cats tail would the cat die?
It isn't likely a cat would die directly from a bite to the tail. However, a bite would leave the cat in great pain so it is advisable to take the cat to the vet immediately. While the tail isn't a vital organ, they are delicate appendages and due to the many bones within the tail, it is easy for a tail bones to break. Sadly, a broken tail cannot be mended, and in some cases, if the injury is particularly bad or the injury is at the base of the tail (greater chance of nerve damage), the tail has to be amputated.
HOW does an amputated tail affect a cat?
To some degree, this will depend upon the cat. Cats use their tails for balance while walking and jumping, so losing part or all of a tail may cause your cat to have trouble balancing while walking and jumping for a while. Over time, your cat will learn to compensate for the loss of his/her tail, but it probably won't have quite the same surefootedness that it had prior to the amputation.
