Since a cat around rocking chairs might be anxious about
its tail getting hurt, comparing the tavern owner
to this animal suggests that he is very anxious.
When the sheriff "threw open the doors," the tavern owner
"looked like a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs."
The author uses simile to imply that the
tavern owner feels nervous around
the sheriff.
