Japanese Bobtails are carnivores. Always remember that while deciding which food your Japanese Bobtail should eat. If you don’t stick to his intended diet, your Japanese Bobtail will become a finicky eater. If you’re giving your her food that is not meat or formulated from meat products, you can have difficulty getting the Japanese Bobtail to eat.
What do Japanese Bobtails eat?
Keep in mind Japanese Bobtails are closely related to the fiercest of felines — panthers, lions and tigers — so keep that in mind when feeding your Japanese Bobtail. Never will you see a mature panther on National Geographic eating an apple, chewing grass, or drinking milk in the wild.
Declawing the Japanese Bobtail is an intense surgery known as onychectomy, performed using anesthesia, which eliminates the claw of each toe (from the first knuckle out) of the Japanese Bobtail’s forepaw. There’s a remote possibility of death during the procedure, and a declawed Japanese Bobtail may have an increased risk of infection and perpetual discomfort in his paws. This procedure is not suitable for an adult Japanese Bobtail and is labeled an act of animal cruelty in some regions (shown below).
