My cat's paw.
http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b3...t=forefoot.jpg
I'm just wondering if my cat is average. On his front paw he has 5 toes and a lump. What is the function of these things especially that lump. He also has a few whiskers next to the lump. Is this a polydactl or a dew claw? On the rear feet he just has 4 toes. |

My cat's paw.
I think your cat's paw is totally normal. I'm not sure what that "lump" is
but every one of my cats has the same thing. One of my cats is a polydactyl. His extra toes actually look like a thumb. Check out this photo of him and his big feet. http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...l/000_0310.jpg See more photos on my blog at www.island-cats.com.

That's a common feature on all the cats that have ever owned me. True polydactyls have an actual extra toe. |
