Craft question: how to make a pompom kitty?

Here is how to make a pom pom cat.

Here is how to make pom poms.

Thanks, @marinelife :-) I know how to make the pompoms, and have various sizes of the little plastic gizmos for that. The one I had didn’t have a tail like in your link, made of strands of yarn, but a long, pompom tail. That’s the part I want to figure out.

The only way I can think of to make a long pompom is to cut the yarn very long, and use a lot more yarn than usual.
