Cat with Thumbs

we had one like him we called him mittens

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

arlobrubaker - That's awesome. Are you going to upload a video so we can all see?

Not for awhile, I can't connect my video camera to the computer without a VCR for some reason

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 thumps also , but not like ur describing, she has her small thumps, plus 1 extra, u can see when she stretches her paw ther 6!

dude my cat is huge and he has thumbs too

My neighbors cat has thumbs!!!

That means they ar Bangle. Worth hundreds of dollars.
