Domestic Short Hair and Extra Toes Cat Hemingway Polydactyl Cats Available for Adoption in Toronto, Ontario

Orestes comes with a little something extra — two bonus toes on each front paw and one on each back paw, which, as his foster mum likes to say, is just more of him to love. But his oversized paws aren’t the only thing that makes this handsome orange tabby special. At ten months old, this smallish boy has become an affectionate, confident, relaxed young fellow who lets you know when he's in the mood for cuddles, or just happy. Having arrived as a five-week old kitten, gentle Orestes has never scratched or bitten and trusts humans implicitly. He prefers taking a snooze on your bed rather than on the sofa and takes being picked up completely in stride — in fact, he'll nestle right into your chest like he belongs there. With his calm social energy, he’s not one to hide in a corner; he arrives ready and enthusiastic about whatever comes next. Every cat deserves a home that truly fits, and Orestes is ready for the next exciting chapter of his young life, in a loving home environment that will match his natural warmth.
