There are some cats, and even some humans, with a hereditary condition known as polydactyly. See the link below for more information. they just need to reach better in sertainplaces
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.
A cat that has extra toes is a polydactyl.
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.
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". The central pad on a cat's foot is not a toe but what would be the ball of a human's foot. Polydactyl cats--having six toes--became famous when Hemingway adopted one. Many "barn" cats are this type of cat.
Not necessarily. While it is true that cats typically have four toes, other animals such as raccoons and opossums also have four toes. To definitively identify the animal responsible for the footprints, additional evidence or observation would be needed.
Spread out. 'Thumb' might move sideways if walking in speed.
if a cat had seen a teengirls toes i can see it eating them

Cats spread their toes when you pet them because it helps them maintain balance and feel more secure.

No, but the cause of a hematoma can spread from cat to cat depending on what that cause is.

Try squeezing your toes gently, or have a cat lay on them. It really helps.
