Day 120: Toes!

So, I don't know if I've mentioned, but our cat Bastet is polydactyl (she's lucky she didn't end up with a name like Polly or Digit)(although I'll be honest and mention that one of her nicknames is "Toes"). 

We often joke that she has to work pretty hard to keep track of all of those toes.  Evidence of this assertion includes the following:


(The evidence consists both of the overlapping and central toe placement, and also the prevalence of napping behavior.)

Meanwhile, Rick just treated me to an afternoon pick-me-up as I struggle through an endless pile of some delightful essays.
Happy Friday, all!

Your feet's too big! Gotta love those fat mitts. My neighbors named their polydactyly cat "Misprint," which I thought was genius.

When I was a kid, I always wanted to name a cat Bastet!
Love the extra toes. My Mom had a poly - my brother named in Deuce. He looked like he had big mitts on.

All I could think was how hard it is to clip just 10 front toes!

I did some catch up reading on your blog and got worried that you had moved away! But I see you 'simply' remodeled. We did that five years ago. It was like a true move away from my possessions (books and yarn!) for almost three months.

I love your kitty, toes and all.
