Why is my cat's tail sensitive after getting caught in a door?

Question

When I am closing the door my cat's tail is stuck in for half second. Then she ran away from me. And he can back his tail in downward. But, in few hours his tail is coming up like a normal when I touch his head or massage him she is allowing me to touch. But not in tail.

Puss's tail could still be painful, which may be why she won't let you touch it. Do NOT give her any human pain medications. Many are toxic to cats, and can be fatal if given. Keep an eye on her, and if she is still sensitive to having her tail touched after another 24 hours, have her seen by a vet. I hope this helps!
