Meet The Cat With 28 Toes: Thumbz
Hi friends! Have you ever met a cat that has 28 toes before? Here at I Can Has Cheezburger we've seen so many kinds of cats, but a cat with 28 toes is new even for us. We do however have some experience with polydactyls, or cats with extra toe beans. Today we have the story of Thumbnail includes bz the cat, who was a whopping 28 toes! That's so many! But W=whether it is a cat with a total of 26 toes or a cat with thumbs, we want to dedicate this list to all the extra toe bean beauties out there!
Fun fact: Did you know that cats with multiple toes were considered good luck by sailors? Due to their extra toes, they had superior balance which provided them with an advantage in hunting mice on ships, out in the sea. Pretty cool! In this case, the pawdorable cat in question was rescued by a 15-year-old teenager living in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The teenager's parents knew a man who had an extra cat, and the man was planning to either give the 1-year-old cat to a new owner or release it to the wild so "the coyotes could have it." She later heard he had killed someone and then himself, a bit of lore that later indirectly led to Thumbz's fame. We're so happy that this adorable cat has a forever home that's comfy and nice, and that we get to see these pawdorable photos! Enjoy!
