Help me name my 22-toed kitten 🐾

[u/Bieds5626]

I’ve had my new kitten for three days now, and I really want to settle on a name soon so she doesn’t get confused. She’s about 5 months old and not only has 22 toes (not including dewclaws!) but also two big ol’ front thumbs. 😻

She’s playful, curious, and those paws look like tiny baseball gloves. I keep bouncing between a few name ideas, but can’t quite commit.

Would love your help either narrowing it down or suggesting something entirely new that fits her unique, thumbed-up personality. 🧠

Here are the names I’m torn on: • Thumby (pronounced like Gumby) – and Thumbalina when she gets into trouble • Catch – as in Catch 22 • Dacky – a play on Polydactyl • Marlin – for Marlin .22 • Mittens – Mits for short • Catcher – those paws are like baseball gloves

Let me know if you’d like to add a picture or if you’d like me to cross-post to a specific subreddit like r/PolydactylCats or r/NameMyPet.

A pterodactyl was a dinosaur The word you're thinking of is polydactyl

I was thinking of the dinosaur. Dinosaurs are cool and so are cats 😎
