Question
I HAVE A EGYPTIAN MUE (BLACK) SHE HAS 6 TOES ON 3 PAWS, 2 OF WHICH IS ON HER FRONT 2 PAWS. WOULD THIS DEFORMITY CAUSE HER ANY DISCOMFORT? SHE IS VERY VOCAL ABOUT WHEN SHE WANTS ATTENTION. WHEN SHE GIVING ATTENTION SHE DOES WANT IT TO STOP.

Answer
Hi
Some cats do have extra toes, it is not really a deformity but a genetic difference. It is not painful as long as they are not deformed toes and curl underneath which would be hard to walk on.

I belive eqyptin mue are more vocal than other cats so again this is not unusual.

best wishes
