Amalfea is an absolutely stunning polydactyl girl. Polydactyl Maine Coons have extra toes! Numbers of toes can vary – standard Maine Coon cats have 5 toes on each front paw and 4 toes on each back paw, often denoted as 55/44. Polydactyls can have up to 7 toes on each foot according to TICA standards! Amalfea is a 77/55 polydactyl meaning she has 7 toes on each front foot and 5 on each back foot. Around 40% of the original population of Maine Coons were polydactyl, and we are very happy this exciting trait has been preserved. 

Amalfea is a very sweet girl and will die for attention. She loves to say hi to everyone that comes over to visit and seems to try to use her thumbs to open doors! She is an incredible mother, and loves to care for kittens, even those that are not her own. She is fascinated by everything and is such a joy to have around. 

Amalfea passed her final hip exam on Pawpeds in April of 2024, her annual advanced heart echocardiogram as of March 2024, has a clear genetic panel and bloodwork, and is negative for FIV/FeLV/Heartworm.
