alexa, no you’re not the only one. My last foster cat was worse as lap fungus (esp when I was on the pot), but a lot of kits I know are like this. My problem is that I live in an old Victorian house that is starting to settle, so the floors are uneven and thus many of the doors, including the one to the potty, don’t usually close all the way. Kitty can almost always stick a paw in and yank the door open.

That kitty’s gonna need braces – just like Bucky Katt.

This kittums looks almost exactly like my boy, including the cheekypoofs. I currently get an extreme closeup of them every night when he demands his nighttime schnurgles.

My boy is also a polydactyl but it’s the front paws which have the thumbs (with two claws on each). He sometimes makes the paw-sucking noise/snort, and somehow he keeps the white part of his fur just glowing. Polydactyl tux boys rule!

lurkertype-Thankyou, i think he is too, hehe

Or rather, not necessarily.

Mr. Bo is way handsome.

Nah, Teho, my TK does that (back foot) and I KNOW his momma was done feeding him before I dragged him’s fuzzy widdle butt to live indoors wif us. Nothing like a momcat paw swipe to tell the kittens they’re all done nursing!

Theo- yea, he was a stray some friends found meowing out in the rain all alone and we took him in as part of the family. i have pics of him on my page
http://tinkerbellenchanted.bebo.com he is a 1 yr 1/2 old now. Totally my baby! hehe

Alida — now, to me, that sounds like a cat who may have been weaned too early. Any possibility of that?

My cat, Mr. BoJangles, sucks on his paw pad like a kid sucks its thumb. He loves it and purrrs away, even switches between his two front paws to change things up a bit. When he was a kitten he would suck on my fingers but then i tryed to stop him from this habit and then he found his paw pads and has done this ever since. I love it and its the cutest thing!!

I want to gently pinch those big, fluffy, cute widdle cheekees!

I want more kitty photos, please!
