You are NOT gonna believe this!!!!

I was checking on my little fur family. Okay, so my eyes aren't that good. I'm old, whatya want?????? :p

I picked up the runt of the litter. Guess what??? She (I think) has 7, count 'em SEVEN toes on each front paw!!! :eek: :eek:

I couldn't believe my eyes, so I counted them again, like 3 times!! It's true! She's got 7 toes on each front paw!!!

Holy moly!! Anyone ever hear of that before. It's not a double dew claw either. There is a toe for each claw!!!

If it's a boy, I'm gonna name him Big Foot.

Here's it is. It's the clearest I could get. But you can see the 7 pads.

That is a true double-pawed kitten! That innermost toe on the small paw bears watching. The Mahopac Monsters, orange kittens from 3 years ago, had the double paws, and I told the new families to keep an eye on that one so the claw wouldn't dig in.

I don't have a picture at work of the underside here at work, but I do of Phoebe, she has two on one side, three on the other extra, but they are toes, not just claws:

Phoebe wraps her extra toes around my fingers and we hold "hands" for hours. :) &hearts;

Kelly,

Samson is beautiful with all those toes!!! Sasquatch is the runt of the litter who was born Friday morning at 8 a.m. She may be small, but as Jen said, what big feet she has!!!

Holy Toes! Look at all those tosies! How many are on the little one's back feet? Perhaps you can enter him in a "most toes" contest! :D

Kim,

She has only 5 toes on the back feet. But I have NEVER seen 7 toes on one paw in my life!!!

That's so odd to have more toes on the front paws, then the back! You can always call the kitten Sassy if it's a girl. :D Isn't that the 'mouth' of the litter? :confused:

Oh WOW!!!!! Look at all those little toesies.
Kissy, kissy, kissy, kissy, kissy, kissy and kissy.

Hey Donna, now that we have seen the toesies, can we see the rest of the baby. PPPLLLEEEAAASSSEEEE.:D

I think cats with extra toes are so cool!:cool:
I saw your original thread when the kittens were born.
Do you have some more recent photos to post of the cute babies and their sweet mom too?

Oh my, are they toes or is that a hand!! ;)

Kelly, Phoebe looks like she has hands...instead of paws.. :) with a thumb and everything...the way she was holding that stick toy...

If it is a girl... Thumbellina would be a cute name :)

Cheetah's litter had Polydactals in it. We also had 7 toed kitties. Seems it runs in the family. :)

"Sasquatch is the runt of the litter who was born Friday morning at 8 a.m. She may be small, but as Jen said, what big feet she has!!!"

Maybe she was holding on for dear life! She probably didn't want to leave that nice, warm, safe place!

I had the same idea that someone else posted - boy or girl - sasquatch, 'sassy' for short!

But I like 'Thumbelina', too!

they DO look like little hands, and apparently can be used like thumbs, too! I LOVE Samson's blue nail job! Cute!

(BTW, if you paint them, don't they have trouble retracting them? Sorry if it seems like a dumb question, I've only been a cat owner for a month or so.
;) )

That is wild. Sampson's feet are huge. Can't say that I've ever seen anything like it before.

That's not paint, it's SoftPaws to protect the kitties from scratching surfaces. The humane thing to do instead of declawing.

I LOVE Thumbelina for a name! Such cute kissable little mitts!
