Mod Descripton: 

===What Does This Mod Do?===

It adds a playable Tailless Argonian and Manx
Khajiit race.  In nature creatures with tails are
sometimes born without them, and it made sense to
me that this would sometimes happen with Argonians
and Khajiit.  As with Manx cats, the Tailless and
Manx races are stocky, stronger and less agile
than their tailed counterparts.

Here is a release thread with a picture for
comparison:

===Why Would I Want Tailless Beasts?===

Many mods create new items that use the tail slot.
 If you equip such an item on a beast character,
their tail will disappear.  This can be annoying. 
I personally also like the look of stockier,
tailless beasts, but that's a matter of personal
preference.

==What if I Want Tailless Beasts That Are Not
Stocky?==

I have three .esps with the file you download. 
One with my original mod, one without the
stockiness, and one without the racial attribute
changes.  There is further explanation in the
readme.

This mod also comes with KT's Custom Race Fix,
which is needed for custom races at the beginning
of the game.  I don't own that and I didn't come
up with it in any way, which is why it's not
merged with the esps.

The files are quite small, so this is a fast
download even on dialup.  Enjoy your new items and
you'll never miss your tail. ;)
