Polydactylism is when an animal has more than the normal number of toes. It is most common in cats, which normally have five toes in each of their front paws and four at the back. Polydactyl cats, however, have more than that. Jake, a male tabby cat from Canada, is recognized as the cat with the most toes. He has a whopping 28 toes—seven on each foot. Polydactylism, which means “many fingered,” is more common among cats in England, Wales, Eastern US, and Canada than anywhere else in the world. They were popularized by famed writer Ernest Hemingway, and are sometimes called “Hemingway cats.” They are also sometimes called “snowshoe paws” or “pancake feet” because the extra toes make them appear to have big feet. nonlethal mutation DUPLICATED EARS HERE: http://www.lioden.com/topic.php?id=304429172403 |

I'm fostering a polydactyl kitty right now and would love to have a lion like her here. It would be neat if there were two or three variations of the mutation where the number of toes differs, but that may be too much work. Either way, I support! 0 players like this post! Like?

I definitely support this idea. I had found a kitten one year with his front paws like this. Sadly my stepdad didnt let me keep him when i was younger, but for the time I did I loved my little mutie boy :3 Would LOVE to have lions with these mutations!! 0 players like this post! Like? |

But I do say that this would be one of the more common mutations like folded ears. 0 players like this post! Like? |

My boyfriend just adopted a polydactyl girl a few weeks ago. I call her thumbs because that's where her extra toes are. She is so cute! (had already supported xP) 0 players like this post! Like? |
