It's not like Neatorama needs yet another cat post... but here you go anyways. (I guess it's rubbing off on me)

I have two cats just like this one. When I took the female in to be spayed, the vet suggested removing the nails on the inner toes, because they could lead to problems later in life when the nail sheath came off there was the possibility of it lodging in her skin and not dropping off naturally...Anyhoo, TMI, I know.

The biggest problem with big ole feet with too many toes? When they are we and the cats needs to climb on you. Very large wet prints!
Ever notice how declawed cats can pick up items and manipulate them? My sister's cat is declawed (don't freak, the cat came to her that way) and that creature can open drawers and take stuff out! He does this when he's bored or wants attention. My theory is that, when the claw and bone (up to the first knuckle, which is why declawing is bad) are removed, all that complex musculature is left behind and is still usuable. Cats being the curious, adaptable critters that they are, it's not long before they learn to turn their disablity into an advantage.
I tell ya - if cats ever learn to get rid of their claws to use their little cat fingers en masse, we're all going to be in a lot of trouble.
...post all the cat pictures you want, because unlike Cute Overload, I can read the comments here without puking in my mouth. There's some serious De-evolution going on over there, an army of infantile, baby-talking, regressive lemmings who compulsively mimic anything written by the original author. Creepy. I like cute kitty pictures as much as the next person, but somehow, after viewing them, I'm still able to retain my intellect and individuality...
I'll refrain from lending you my opinion, Hugh. Suffice it to say, I'm one of those "infantile, baby-talking, regressive lemmings who compulsively mimic anything written by the original author."
As compared to sparkling conversationalists like yourself...

So, that isn't an opinion?
To each his own, if people want to behave regressively, that's certainly one path to choose in life, I can do nothing about it but complain. It still makes me overwhelmingly sad for the future of human race, and you will be unable to make me feel guilty for feeling that way.

Well, I got the special gift with extra toes. So, what's fuss all about?!
I enjoy to climb trees to beat other ordinary cats.

You all dull humans are jealous of me?! haha ~
