Yay more polys!! I really love how Zoey stands with her legs/feet kind of facing outwards, like a ballerina or something


I sometimes wonder if that will affect her as the years go on. I mean if you walked around with your legs pointing slightly outward.. I dunno just musing.

What great pics! Here are a couple of my Katy, but they don't really show her feet that well.

Do any of your polys have extra back toes too?

Zoey has a normal amount of toes on one back paw and an 'extra' little toe/claw on the other paw





Also, what I do to trim that smaller one in the front is try to seperate the thumb from the other toes, and then push up on the paw pad with my thumb and forefinger. It's really a pain in the butt sometimes!

Katy has extra toes on all 4 feet. She has some claws that just kind of hang there and she isn't really able to retract them. I've never been able to trim her claws, but she will let me trim the looser ones.

Where my cats are
Tiger had extra in the back. I think Olivia does but I'm not positive. She's funny about her feet. They are so fluffy and the tufts between the toes are so funny. She hates having them messed with or getting them wet. Tiger couldn't have cared less!

Zoey's thumbs are kind of weird. They kind of just hang there
I dont think she has as much control over them like the rest of her toes.

Tiger has 6 on each of his front paws, his back paws are regular except one hind leg has a huge dew claw just dangling! Its quite strange looking but it keeps him unique! Tigers Thumbs are kind of flimsy! He can use them but they aren't as strong as his regular digits! It feels normal when they kneed except tiger can latch on better with his thumbs! He always prefers to kneed on my bare skin the stinker or on my boob (he's a boob grabber)! Better grab effect is the only difference and more claws to scratch with! Zoey has the same thing going on as Tiger it sounds!
