About this Item

Paperback. Colo the cougar and her friend Ruff jump and play together, but they find that Ruff can't jump nearly as far as Colo. Ruff doesn't have a long, swishy tail like Colo does, to provide balance on long leaps. Ruff is a bobcat and his tail is much shorter. He is sure that something is wrong with him. The sympathetic Colo suggests that they go find a tail that Ruff would like better, so off they go. As the two kittens explore the variety of tails worn by other animals, they make the best discovery of all. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
