Typically a cat will have five toes, four on the front of the foot and one up towards the heel. Each toe has a claw, but only the four at the front of the foot also have hairless "pads".

Many "barn" cats are this type of cat.

Is it possible for a cat to have more than 5 toes?
As the above poster said it is a deformity. Years ago witches preferred to have a cat with 6 - 7 toes. A cat with 6 - 7 toes has Polydactyly (extra digits on paws) and it's common among Celtic cats and also some cats on the Eastern Coast in American and SW Britain. There is one breed of cat that extra digits are meant to be and it's called 'Twisty.' In Cornwall, England one lady had a 6 cats with 6 toes. In Havant, Hampshire a lady had 6 cats and 3 had 6 toes and 2 had 4 toes on each foot. One had the normal amount of toes. Generally these cats are classified as 'mitten cat' and have more toes, but no thumb. You would think it would be a detriment to the cat, but instead their dexterity is far greater (almost human like) and they can get into mischief by opening up boxes (just like human hands.) Many owners have some good laughs over what these cats can get into. Enjoy your cat and don't worry as the cat will be fine, but like any other pet your cat should have a yearly check up. If you find your cat limping, then you should take the cat into the vet to have it's feet checked. Also keep the claws snipped down and if your cat won't allow you to do it then your vet will have to.
