Poor Apollo hurt his tail Sunday night. I wasn't sure if it was broke or jammed. At first he let out a weird sounding meow. Then he wouldn't sit down on it. The tail was just limp. I would lift it up and it would fall like a dead limb. I was so worried. Monday when I woke up, he wasn't any better so I got him an appointment at the vet. The didn't think it was broken. You could touch the tail and he wouldn't cry. He got an anti-inflammatory shot and they said if it wasn't better in 48 hours I'd have to bring him back.
Apollo slept all evening on Monday. He would hold his tail up some but not all the time. Anything Summer would do (running around, walk close to Apollo), Apollo just laid there so I knew he wasn't feeling well. Maybe the shot made him sleepy. It's just so weird to see him so calm. SOOOO, when I got home from the basketball game last night, he was up and chasing Summer again.

I'm gone to ask Santa for this gift.
Something like that happened to Roxie when her tail got caught in the sliding glass door. I remember feeling the same way you did with Apollo. The Dr told me they would probably have to remove her tail, but after he examined her he must have done something chiropractic to it on accident because it was fine again. She did always have that little crook in it from then on.
