Our question this week was:Dr. Jon – My neighbor says she has a mitten cat. What does that mean?
Jenna B.AnswerHi – thanks for your email Jenna. You wrote asking what is a mitten or thumb cat. A mitten foot, mitten cat or thumb cat refers to a condition called Polydactyly. It is a condition that a cat is born with extra toes.
