Polydactyl felines are cats with extra toes. They are sometimes known as Hemingway cats, since many of the cats who lived with the writer Ernest Hemingway were polydactyls. They are very special cats who often appear to have "thumbs". Many polydactyls learn special skills with their big mitts, such as opening doors or catching items.

PFA often rescues Polydactyl cats, such as Polly and Studley.

In this article, a litter of kittens has recently made the news when it was discovered that the babies have 6 and even 7 toes on their little paws! Make sure to check out the video too :)
