It's a not really uncommon mutation where the cat has an extra toe or toes; never had one myself but have seen a few; they are actually cute!  |

Hi mandyb - the most famous group of polydactyl cats are the ones that still live at the Ernest Hemingway museum in Florida, cared for under the terms of his Will. Evidently half the group have extra toes! http://cats.about.com/od/felinegenet...polydactyl.htm Hope you have a good holiday week! |
