Silly question but how many claws?

Signature sorted! There are a couple of pics of him in my Gallery. Hes fast asleep, snoring next to me on the sofa right now! Little treasure :saint:

Oh don't send me to the Gallery, you know how broody it makes me lol. *silently creeps off to the Gallery anyway*

I think I joined here just before you Bob so you may have missed that Buddy is rescue and 7. One of my first posts was "How do you MC proof a house?" Due to Buddy opening cupboards, the fridge and doors. Child locks worked for all of a day until they got swiped off. Door handles have been turned upside down and still working but not sure for how long - these cats are too intelligent for their own good.

wouldn't have him any other way xx:satisfied:

Well now you know why, he's a kitty was a little something extra.
Samantha liked to get into the cupboard where I kept the dish towels, I come into the kitchen and the towels would be pulled out on to the floor.

I can barely imagine what a poly MC could do though. :LOL:

My polydactyl MC Roxy has opposable thumbs! She uses them when climbing and can climb really well. She also grasps things with them and if she grabs onto a toy it's impossible to pull it out of her grasp...
Roxy has 6 claws on each front foot (4 regular toes, 1 dewclaw and 1 thumb for each) and 5 on each back foot (4 regular claws and 1 dewclaw on each).

Here's a few photos where you can see her "thumbs":

We also got her this ID tag (it has her name/# on the back)... It's being modeled by my other cat Harley for this photo because it's hard to photograph on Roxy because of her fluffy neck ruff:

"I HAZ THUMBS" - love it!

That is a brill Tag.

Aww both cats are totally gorg! I love the tag and maybe should get one for Bubz, he can climb the brickwork on the outside of the house, open cupboards etc. Just please don't give him any more ideas he's enough of a nightmare as it is x

Awww! I need one of those for Oscar!

Thanks! I got the tag made by Fetching Tags. It was either that or "Talk to the Paw" LOL...
