Polydactyl cat seeks a good home

A cat with big paws and 26 toes could be looking for a new home after being taken in by Stroud Cats Protection.

Coco, a middle-aged jet black cat, was taken in as a stray in nearby Dursley. If her owner cannot be found she will have to be re-homed.



Susie Jones, from the charity, said it had also had a polydactyl kitten - an animal or person with more than the usual number of hand or foot digits. "But that one only had two extra toes, so this is very unusual," she added.

Coco has four normal claws and one dew claw with three claws in the pads on her front feet, and five claws at the back.
