how big is your cat(s)' paws?

this is my Zeus...rather large not quite 2 yet marmalade boy. He's a sweetheart. Afraid of his own shadow (and everyone else's) but he has huge double-pawed feet.

in some cultures, an extra finger on a human hand (usually the thumb) is believed to be a sign of good luck.

i guess you could say that about your cat!

I love cats with extra toes! Last year I saw a 3 month old polydactyl red tabby kitten....he was so cute and his feet looked so big (too big for his little body) with the extra toes.
My Bean has really big feet but no extra toes.

That's a very unusual paw that Zeus has. I think Kyle101's cat Pepe probably has the biggest paws. He's a MainCoon (the one that likes to hop into the washing machine).

Here is a pic of Handsome's paw. It's regular size. He wasn't in the mood to do any paw modeling when I took this.

My cat Nakita had 6 toes on each foot, and long hair, She looked like she was wearing snowshoes!

Chessmind: Does Handsome have really long toes? In that picture his foot looks just like Chieves. Chieve has the longest toes I've ever seen on a cat.

Nern: I'm not sure if his toes are longer than most cats. I think MaryNh's cat Zeus has much longer toes than Handsome's. I would have to see other cat paws to compare Handsome's with. Maybe he does. I'm not sure. Here is another picture of Handsome's paws. Even though the pic is a bit blurry, it seems like Handsome's toes are just regular size. Do you have any pics of Chieve's paws?

I'll have to take some picture of Chieve's paw. It almost appears as if he has an extra joint or something on each toe.
