This is Aros (and brother Durin). Aros has polydactyly and by our count has 25 toes - 7 more than normal. He has six toes on each hind foot and left forefoot, and a whopping seven on his right forefoot. Nail trims should be fun with this little guy!

The bonus digits don't seem to bother him in the slightest and living in Canada, I'm sure he'll appreciate the extra floatation in the snow if he ever manages to sneak out during winter - because those feet are like snowshoes!

Shelters are packed right now so PLEASE consider a shelter animal rather than some bougie breed that is likely to have a ton of health issues.

Also - if you can't commit to a pet long term but could foster a kitter or pupper, it's a super rewarding experience. Our shelter covers everything from vet visits to food to even toys so it's a zero cost way to bring a fuzz-ball into your home and out of a cramped shelter while they look for their forever home!

Do they charge per nail when trimming? .. or did they not think of that? .. You might wind up getting the best value for the service. :P

I told my partner that if we foster fail, I'm renaming him Beans.
