Charlie Boy
Charlie helps to tidy my messy office desk. ☺️
Note one of Charlie's 4 extra Polydactyl toes or thumbs (he has one on each foot).
Charlie's polydactyl toes don't seem bother him in the slightest although I'm terrified one of his outer claws getting caught somewhere and being damaged as Charlie cannot retract it.
If he does get a outer claw caught particularly on his scratch post he'll just pull his whole body, which means dragging the whole post across the floor until it comes loose. (I've often come home to find his scratch post on the other side of the room.)
The inner claw does not make contact with anything so this has to be cut manually and periodically otherwise it'll grow around in a loop and back in into the foot like an ingrowing toenail.
I can tell you Charlie does not enjoy having his inner claws cut and it can take me several attempts and days to complete the task.
