The main cause of kittens having no tail is probably because the queen (mother cat) has a bob tail (or no tail), or that one of the Toms that bred with her had a bob tail. My cat, Ellsey Moo, has a bob tail. She was a stray, and we picked her up from the road. We thought someone cut off her tail, but when she had a bunch or bob-tailed kits, we knew it was natural.

The reason is because short tail cats have both genes of a no tail cat and a genes of a long tail cat. Lets say that a long tail gene is called gene A, and a no tail gene is called gene B. if both cats have short tails that means both cats have both genes A and B equally. so there is a 50-50 chance that each cat gives either gene to the baby This means the possible combinations are that one cat gives the baby an A and the other a B, remember that this possibility comes up twice since it doesn't matter which cat gives the A or the B. The other possibilities are that both cats give the kitten an A, or both cats give the kitten a B. That leaves AB(short tail), BA(short tail), AA(long tail), BB(no tail) so 25% for no tail, 25% for long tail, and 50% for short tail.
