Who has seen a polydactyl cat ?
Polydactyly (or Polydactylism – or even Hyperdactyly) is a genetic defect which is fairly common in cats.
Cats usually have 5 toes (digits) on each front foot, and 4 on each back foot. A total of 18. If more are present, this is Polydactylism.
Here’s Harvey. Harvey is a polydactyl. Come over to our facebook page to see him strutting his stuff after his latest maintenance Session. A close Clip, to keep his thick coat short – as he really doesn’t like being combed.
Can you see Harvey’s feet ? Extra digits present !
