Best answer
Some cats have extra toes due to a genetic mutation called polydactyly. Polydactyl cats have more than the typical number of toes on one or more of their paws, which can give them a unique and adorable look. This genetic trait is relatively common in certain cat breeds, such as the Maine Coon, and is generally not harmful to the cat's health.
