Hello everyone,

I need some help finding a cartoon from my childhood I watched a few time on a VHS tape rented from my local video store in the mid 90s.

For some reason it made a big impact on me but I barely remember any names or helpful details about it.

The things I do remember (even though I may be mistaken about some of them) is that the main character was a male black cat that had some sort of trouble with his confidence. I'm pretty sure that his confidence and behavior had something to do with his tail. I think he would get brave once his tail size got larger and other way around. Some of the sequences had a dream like atmosphere (possibly those when he wasn't scared anymore) and the cartoon in general had some darker feel and overtones. There was also a female cat that he was trying to help or get her attention.

It might be a french cartoon and I don't think it had much dialogue, or even any...

I googled it many times and went trough a lot of animated movies that had a black cat as a main character but nothing resembles to what I'm looking for.

Any help appreciated!

Peter No-Tail (81)
a.k.a. Pelle Svanslös

A kitten born without a tail is mocked by his peers. Although he is adopted by a loving family, he is determined to prove himself to the other cats by winning a competion,the cat mastership. Peter tries to win the respect of the others, and the heart of a young girl cat with the help of his friend a snake who can do a convincing impression of a cats tail.
