This is true the polydactyl cats parents would most likely have been brother and sister
Polydactyl is a genetic abnormality that is sometimes seen in cats as well as other species. Polydactyl cats are not bred to have the extra digits, and there is no true percentage of this occurrence. The only exception is the Maine Coon which disreputable breeders will attempt breeding.
Kittens can be polydactyl. Polydactyl means an extra toe. It is harmless and will not be a problem. It is a genetic feature of some cats.
Thumbelina, mittens, ernie (Hemingway owned over 60 of these cats), gene as in genedefect, and thumbs. Just some common ideas. I have a girl names Polly as in polydactyl.
A cat that has more than the usual number of toes is known as a polydactyl cat. Polydactyly is a genetic trait that causes cats to be born with extra toes, typically on their front paws. This condition is relatively common and can sometimes be seen in various cat breeds.
they arn't really worth more money than other cats (though some people might pay more if they want one), but many people like them for their uniqueness. It sure is cool if you have one :)

Calico Polydactyl Manx cats are relatively common, though there are no exact statistics on the number of cats in the United States. The cats are often sold for high prices.
Yes

Polydactyl means having more than the usual number of fingers or toes. Most Cats have 5 digits on each paw. A polydactyl has extra digits, usually 6. Cats are not the only animal to be considered polydactyl. In fact people may also have more than 10 fingers or toes!

Polydactyl cats are common. So probably nothing more.
Potential side effects of inbreeding cats include an increased risk of genetic disorders, reduced fertility, and weakened immune systems. Inbreeding can also lead to physical deformities and behavioral issues in cats.
Siamese cats and thorobred race horses would be two examples of inbreeding.
they are call Hemingway's cats or polydactyl they can range form 6 toes on up the most i have seen is 8 toes my mate says there the Karl petrieas disease and that all cats will die because of the disease spread by Karl.
No, hemophilia is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the genes responsible for blood clotting, and it is not directly caused by inbreeding. Inbreeding can increase the likelihood of inheriting genetic disorders, including hemophilia, if the mutation is present in the family's gene pool.
polydactyl means many fingers. It refers to people or creatures that have more fingers or toes then what they are suppose to have.
