Why they do not allow humans to touch their tails? Why do the cats safekeep their tails under their hind legs when they sleep? This is the cutest thing I observed among cats. When we try to touch its tail, it tries to bite us, albeit playfully. Can somebody focus on this?

My cat allows me to touch her tail even with her mom. I even squeeze it. LOL! But maybe the reason why they keep their tail safe under or between their hind legs is because of their defensive feature on someone might step or pull their tails.
Here's an article about the cat's signals through their tail, ears and eyes.

Cat is an very beautiful and elegant animal. It looks nice when cats keep their tails under their hind legs.
