My cat has thumbs and he uses them when picking things up and when gripping the same way we would use our thumbs. He likes to take peanuts from the peanut jar by reaching in and grabbing them with his little hands
In fact, every cat has thumbs like the cat in the video. Most of them are just very small stumps. My cat there's on my lap right now has some small "thumbs".
technically what you're describing isn't thumbs, it's a cat's dewclaws. 'cat thumbs' develop when the cat has a genetic fault that causes to grow a second pair of dewclaws, the second set are much higher up than the regular dewclaw, and they stick out and move like thumbs.
my cat has thumbs too!!

Do cats with "thumbs" generally grow larger than cats without? I heard they do.
