My friend had a cat like this. They named her “Toesy”

Key West kitties have an extra toe.

They're growing human feet now. Opposable thumbs are next.

This thing will dig holes in your arms if you run her belly for more than 3 seconds

I have one with 6, and one with 6 and 7. Had one with 6 but almost an opposable thumb, he would actually pick up his treats with his paw! That was startling when he first did it. Haven't seen a kitty like this one though.

Replying to Covalsqy (#1,371,223)

It's a rather common genetic mutation called polydactyly. The only marked difference between them and other cats is the presence of extra toe beans and sometimes extra claws. Ernest Hemingway had a bunch of them when he was still living and there is still a colony of them at his house/museum in Key West. You commonly hear them referred to as "Hemingway cats" because of this.
