Just curious to see how many others on the forum have kitties with extra toes!


My little boy Toby (go figure how he got his name, huh) has two extra toes on each of his front paws. He was abandoned in front of the pet store where I used to work in a box with his litter mates, all of which had the extra toes too. I love my freaky kitty.

Yes - I had a beautiful little girl named Coco. Unfortunately she couldn't stay with us. She was a sweet kitty, but very violent towards my other cats and had to go to a forever home where she was an only child.
She was beautiful though!
It's hard to see her toes while she's sitting

But you can see her toe off to the left of her foot here as she walks. Her toes were all light brown, except the extra ones - they were almost black in color.

I LOVE polydactls! I love those big feet, lol!



But sadly, none of our rescues has extra toes.

More polydactl pics!

I loved those babies... They are all in good homes now. Including momma (spayed too
) We only kept Tiger who my son is VERY attached to. And the feeling is mutual

I've had 2 poly's. One oddly enough came from my step-aunt Polly! Tiger, one of my RB babies, had them and used them to grab things like pens from you. Olivia has about a million toes on her fuzzy feet too.

Ooooohhhh yeah! Tiger was the sweetest love bug. She'd take a head rubbing from anyone. Olivia will just sit there and give you dirty looks! The only time she really likes me is when I get the cat dancer out or if I happen by here when she actually does want some affection! She really has attitude!

Here's some pics of my poly, Puppy! He uses his extra toes to drag shoes closer for rolling in.

Az has extra toes on his front paws. They're on the side, sort of where a thumb would be. He uses them like thumbs too.. it's the cutest!

It's not the best pic, but it's the only one I have where you can see his toes... at least on one foot
