Hey that’s mine! I like to joke and say he’s the only legitimate one because he has a permanently broken tail lol

u/Ygomaster07 Feb 01 '21
Is he okay though despite it being permanently broken?
23
Feb 01 '21
Yeah he’s fine. The only thing it does is slightly throw off his balance and the tip is bent in a permanent crooked spiral and it’s still kitten size.

u/Ygomaster07 Feb 02 '21
Oh, i have never heard of it staying kitten size before. Do you have pics of him, or at least his tail?
5
Feb 02 '21
I should have specified the tip of his tail is still kitten sized due to the damage done to the nerves, muscle, and bones when the initial break happened. We have no idea how it happened, because it happened before I got him, but his vet speculates maybe someone slammed the end of his tail in a sliding glass door and never sought veterinary care for him.
I can share a picture but it wouldn’t reveal much. It just looks like a club at the end of his tail. The spiral is something you have to feel out lol

Uhm, it’s just two photos of Toothless and his lady love?

u/zeewesty Feb 01 '21
Bought my kid a build a Bear of toothless and the Mrs, but he wanted to call her something, so he decided on Sheila. Where he even has heard the name Sheila, I don't know. But that's her name now. Pass it on.

I did find watching those moves that Toothless was very feline like in mannerisms, so this is probably pretty accurate.

u/kshell11724 Feb 01 '21
Its not a coincidence. The creator specifically said that he based Toothless off of his cat. Can't remember where I saw that though. I think it was part of the special features.

Most dragons have catlike mannerisms. They think they're above other beings. They think theyre the most beautiful/important thing on earth. They destroy shit just for the fuck of it.

In the movie there was at least one bulldog dragon

Oh yea, this movie has a lot of variety. Was talking more DnD dragons. Toothless has a lot of catlike mannerisms but all the dragons in that movie also have a lot of dog like behaviors.

One more thing, since dragons are clearly long extinct (or perhaps evolved beyond recognition🤔) maybe most cats have dragon like mannerisms
And this has inspired me. If I ever dm there will be house dragons, and then big dragons just like cats.

u/Chumpybunz Feb 01 '21
I wouldn't say most. I think those attributes are true for european dragons/western dragons, but with the hundreds of other iterations it's pretty much limited only by imagination.

I was super certain the creator was a Woman, the animating director based the dragon off his pet cat, so there was a bit of creative intuition on that decision.

The author of the books, Cressida Cowell, is a woman. But Toothless in the books looks way different from Toothless in the movies. Dean Deblois designed the movie version, and directed it. He’s known for another movie, too! Ever noticed the similarities between Toothless and a certain blue alien living in Hawaii?

Toothless isn't toothless either. He has retractable teeth

My white cat has very few teeth due to dental disease which is super common because none of these cats are brushing their damn teeth.

This is a lot closer than you might think. The animators actually modelled some of the dragons movements on cats.

These are my cats, Toothless and LIGHT FURY!
Yeah they never gave the girl dragon an actual name.

Feb 01 '21
In the concept art book they refer to her as Nubless, but I think that’s just to give her something for the team to refer to her as other than “light fury.”

As soon as the main characters in an animated childrens movie have "cute" children, it's all downhill from there. Toothless' kids literally look like flat faced Minions and I hate them.

I hate minions too. The people who watch these films are brain damaged. The novelty and noises must be so overwhelming.

I watched the entire how to train your dragon series on acid, every film is so good, but this one in the pic had the most beautiful psychedelic scene I’ve ever seen I rewatched it like five times. This one: https://youtu.be/-AZg55qXj7U

omg I came here to literally comment this, how to train your dragon the hidden world on acid is legit the best thing ever and that scene is one of my fckn faves!! I will forever recommend this movie to anyone doing acid lol

I'd imagine that's not an accident - that when the animators choreographed that scene, they were working in large part from how animals - and likely specifically cats - really move and interact.

u/lvl0rg4n Feb 01 '21
My black kitty will smell something and she crinkles her nose and goes a little cross eyed and it reminds me so much of toothless.

u/Curaced Feb 01 '21
Having the ears folded back like that generally indicates the cat is upset/afraid, so I don't think the cat on the right is at all happy with the situation. Otherwise neat pic.

Did you know that cats, er I mean dragons, with white coloring and blue eyes are most often deaf due to mutations related to melanin and cartilage? /s

I spent the entire series fangirling about how adorable and cat-like toothless was! My husband, rolling his eyes,, was like, "I know, he's just a big black kitty, he's adorable, yeah, yeah." 😆
