Happy Tails To You

I have cat,
His name is Trouble.
I have had Trouble for a very long time, much longer than our fluffy faced canine. To say that Trouble was upset when we brought Gus into our home is an understatement. Before Gus, he was a fun loving cat, full of playfulness, and he always had a happy tail (this is when a cat walks on his tip toes with his tail pointing straight up). Now that there is a dog in the family, he is only loving when Gus is not around, he rarely plays, and he only has a happy tail once in a while. However, I thought that I would never see the happy tail again after Gus crashed into him full speed two weeks ago crushing his tail between his body and the couch. Trouble let out a noise that could only mean pain and after examining his tail I could tell that it was starting to swell. He could absolutely not lift his tail up....it was very sad.
Good news though, I am happy to report that this morning when Trouble was alone with us in our room he slink and slipped around my legs on the tippiest of toes, tail strait up!

Here is the recovered kitty, not cooperating completely, but you can see he looks happy non-the-less.
