Suzie

Suzie is a very lovely little girl with double paws on her front and back paws. My little girl has very large feet. She looks very much like a lynx point siamese. Her cat mom and siblings were rescued and i adopted her. She is very lovable and sweet. I do feel bad for her when she wants to play with the wheel with the ball in it. Her feet are too big to be able to bat the ball. My male siamese loves this toy and suzie watches him and tries to play with him. Other than that she plays with other toys very well. She can jump very high too. She is nine years old now. Her brother joey is ten. They love each other very much. When she does not want joey to play with her or bothers her, she swats him with her boxing gloves and he backs right down. My suzie is the queen!

Heehee - you had me laughing out loud with the "swatting with boxing gloves". I can so imagine :D Obviously Suzie is an intelligent lady and takes full advantage of her large mittens.

Quite a few polydactyl owners (erm... I mean people owned by polydactyls) say that these are very intelligent cats. I am sure they are right.

And who could not love those Big Paws? I think they are simply adorable. I am sure half the world has seen the funny video where a black polycatyl cat gives the thumb’s up. I’m sure that has made people curious about polydactyls.

There was a newspaper article here not so long ago of a kitten that had six or seven toes in all his feet. Now those paws really looked like snowshoes almost. I wonder if the polydactyls have an advantage over the ”normal toed cats” when it comes to hunting?
