Meet Polygon, a polydactyl cat. Her extra toe beans = extra charm. Polydactyl cats are born with more than the usual number of toes. It’s a harmless genetic quirk that gives them bonus beans and impressive grip. Fun fact: Ernest Hemingway’s home in Key West, Florida is famous for its cats. About 60 cats live there, and many are polydactyl, just like Polygon. | Humane Society of Charlotte
