who know what breed of cat that is?

[andiwm2003]

a friend of mine has a cute cat with actual thumps!

is that a freak mutation or is it a special breed? she said it's actual 6 toes, not just a big thump. i don't know exactly, i'm not that scratch resistant.

Polydactyl cats, apparently.

Any breed of cat (or even other animals, including humans) can show this trait, although it is quite common in the Maine Coon cats (40%).

Which one? they all seem to be real good at attempting to kill themselves with drugs and alcohol.

Ha ha. Nice try.
Take the mittens of the cat.

True, they do a pretty good job of killing themselves.

Extra toes are pretty common in cats, especially the more inbred breeds.
also really messed up alley gets have kittens with extra toes. one of my neighbours DSH cat has 7 on both front paws and 5 on hind left and 6 on hind right, looks kinda freaky neat but I would not breed for that trait

He killed himself. Watch series 7 of Red Dwarf if you don't believe me

Getting back on topic, I've never seen a cat with thumbs before!

...and the occasional lady getting a ride home with them.

Are those opposable thumbs?

Will cats start using tools next?
