Anyone know why they changed the cat villager tails?

[DaviddivaD]

They are upright now instead being relaxed. Don't know why they changed it. To my knowledge, all of the other villager species tails are the same.

So they don't clip through furniture when they sit down?

In real life, cats walk around with their tails erect most of the time, unless they're very unhappy. I suspect it has something to do with that fact
