Mukluk got her name because she has so many extra toes it looks like she is wearing big mukluks on her feet. She was adopted from the Humane Society. She loves to get into everything; especially boxes, papers and of course packaging material!-

What a cutie! I bet her paws are just a delight as well. Good thing you didn’t name her “Uggs”
Sweet faced,big pawed kitten :))
What a lovely little girl. And extra toes too! All the more to love.
UPS FUZZ!
Aaaaaaaaaaawh!! Sounds like my kity, Taboo. Not the extra toes part but the paper part does. Sounds like my old kitten, Sugar, with the toes. She had 8 in the front and 5 in the back! Awkward isn’t it!
I am glad I don’t have to pay her manicurist bill!
This kitty is such a honey. I would love to have her delivered to my home anyday of the week.
My Taffy liked to play in the foam “peanuts” they would stick to his fur when he jumped out of the box.
Polydactyls! Love ‘em. They are wonderful, and she looks so cute too! Kiss Kiss!!!!
Look at those big eyes!! She’s adorable - love her colors & her big feet!!
*FIRST CLASS FUZZ*
You can special deliver her right to my front door.
Her big paws are just more to play with….tickle-tickle-tickle.
*What a Sweetheart* Thanks for Sharing
ok i know there are cat toys in here somewhere……….what a sweethart
What a sweetie-feetie girl!
Special Delivery Fuzz! She is a sweetie. We have to seal our boxes right away or put them in the garage until they can be recycled, otherwise we have peanuts and packing material from one end of the house to another. I have one boy, Freddy, who loves to lick/chew the tape, too! I love polydactyls, too. I had a kitty, Mary, who was many-toed!
OMG…. look at those cute paws sticking out.
*head explodes from cuteness*
Such a sweet face! Her “M” mark is perfect!
Love those toes..
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOOKS SOOOOOOO SOFT KISS KISS
What a pretty kitty! She looks like a small tiger cub and seems to be frisky too! Beautiful markings on her.
So after checking a lot of the comments about Izzy yesterday, I went and got her a few little toys and some treats. I came home and went to go find her so we could play. Weel, shes was missing. Turns out no one had seen her since Sunday. We looked for her alllll day and couldnt find her anywhere. After a while we really started to get worried because we remembered that a day or two before she had tried to jump onto a chest in the livving room and smacked into the corner when she missed. The one thing we did find was an open air vent in my brothers room, which scared us but we didn’t really think she was inside it. The whole day went by with no results, until my mom got home at eleven and they searched the garage. I’d say it was about 11:30 when they found her nestled in among all the junk out there. I guess she just loves our garage. That’s where we brought her when we first found her. We didn’t want the other animals to get any fleas. She was only out tthere until it got cold, then we brought her into the laundry rom which is now her favorite room in the house. Last time we couldn’t find her that’s where she turned up about the fifth time I looked. My little kitten is just the master of hiding. Everything with Izzy is OK now. She’s back inside and a little confused about having some shiny new toys…actually its a few mice and some pretty things on sticks but she seems to like them….shes just confused is all.
Kristen, glad you found Izzy and all is well. Just be patient. Your love of this cat will be rewarded. Good Luck.
My Taffy loved a cheap set of pearl beads that I purchased frpm the craft department. He would run all over the house with them and it stopped him from raiding my jewelry drawer while I was deciding what to take out.
Hi Kristen,
Glad you found your Izzy. One thing you have to do is be patient with her. Try to spend time everyday with just her without the other kitty. I have a cat who is ’shy’ and a pushy kitten who would take over if I let him! So I always make some alone time with my Sydney.
Stay in touch. I think I can speak for all of us, we want to know how it’s going.
Good luck to you and Izzy :))
Izzy will come around. I have a shy boy, Thierry Henry, and even though he has never warmed up to strangers he is now a total mama’s boy. I get awakened every morning by him squishing on me and begging to be petted, sometimes he just lays on me and pets my face with his paw. As long as he loves me and I get to stroke his bunny soft fur, I don’t mind that he hides whenever we have company. (he has a couple of exceptions to the scared of company rule. He loves his aunt Beth and Aunt Sandy) I know Izzy will come to love and trust you given time.
What a little sweetie!! Didn’t know anyone but Alaskans knew what “mukluks” are!
Muklulk’s is so precious! What a wonderful photo. Love the paws and the coloring. Enjoy your new “package”!!!
I would so love to see this little honey bursting out of my next FedEx delivery!
‘WE’RE NOT TALKING PEANUTS’ FUZZ
….ahem…………………………………………………………………
*Foam Fuzz*
Not a good toy for kitty. Try to stop em befor a bad thing happens to a most adorable kitten!
Love the pics and hope all are in great homes
*poly FUZZ*
Such a sweet baby, but what is it about cats and those styrofoam peanuts? I have one cat that knows they’re in a package before I even open it, and if I throw them in the waste basket she’ll go digging around to get them out. Very weird.
she is such a precious baby fuzz-ball! my only question is how many extra toe-zies does Mukluk have? the pic looks as though she is stretching outta the box-fun for big ole hug-fest! heehee
Kristen~
Thank goodness you found Izzy, I know that feeling all too well…not something I would wish upon my worst enemy! as everyone has said “good luck”, “be patient” and “please keep us updated”.
*FUZZ EXPRESS*
I know this will take time and right now I have all the time in the world…well at least until school starts but I’ll make time for my animals. Thanks for the tip about seperate kitty time. I love Cuddles and she’s so sweet but she always steals Izzy’s attention and toys and treats. I’m gunna try the alone time after she’s a little more comfortable with playing and stuff. My room should be a good place she loves it but the cats aren’t technically allowed downstiars in the basement….. so it’ll be a treat to get to sneak around my room again
You go Kristen. Sneak little Izzy into your room.Try to do it everyday. And if your parents catch you please remind them that at your age they should be happy it’s only a kitten you are sneaking into your room! :))
Lovely, lovable sweetheart doing what little kittens do best–getting into mischief! And with extra digits to do it! Good thing cats don’t have opposable thumbs! There’d be nothing they wouldn’t mess with. Civilisation would change drastically. (Actually, that doesn’t sound so bad these days. . .)
Ship me to the cat food factory FUZZ
What a wonderful look. She looks like “How did you find me in here”. I didn’t do nothing wrong, FUZZ….
By the way thankyou to everyone who responded to my question of where you are. Just curious to see where all the reponses come from. Keep them coming!!!
Chester, I didn’t get to chime in yesterday, but I am in Western Kentucky.
Thank you to everyone who posts on this site for making it such a friendly positive experience every day. I look forward to every day’s posting and I check back throughout the day. I appreciate you all even more after the trolls visited last week. I especially appreciate they way TDK kitten posters help each other out with advice, kind words, humor and positive feelings!
Well thankyou for chiming in today. I’m originally from Ky myself. I spent the first few years in a little town called Walton, which is just south of Cincinnati. My family tree starts in southern Ky down by the Cumberland falls area.
I also want to thank everyone for all the kind words & useful info on here.
Hiya ppearson, It is *warm* and *fuzzy* here in more ways than one. My fave site, kitties and nice people who love them :)) :))
Hey Chester, I am in Montreal Canada where I live with my three fuzzies, Sydney,4 year old gray tabby her 2 brothers, Wally a 3 year old brown tabby and little Alfie a 10 month old full of mischief ginger/white tabby.
The other day you asked about where we are located…I’m from Davenport, Iowa right on (and sometimes partially in) the Mississippi River. We’re part of the Quad Cities (includes Davenport and Bettendorf in Iowa, and Rock Island, Moline in Illinois…
Has anyone ever heard of Coalinga, CA. That’s where I live. It’s a small town about 75 miles southeast of Fresno in the central valley.
I am the mommy of three gorgeous kitty girls, Silver, Mergatroid, and Domino.
yea i didnt get to say either…im from virginia…..
Chester, Richmond VA here……
Mukluk is such a sweetie! I love her coloring!
Sweet little face + all those extra toes + devilish look =
major mischief
FUZZ EX
*WHEN IT ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY, HAS TO BE CUTE,
FUZZERAL EXPRESS*-fuzz!
hope everyone is having a good day! T
every time i check this site, i want another kitty!!!!!!!!!!! Kristen-when you have your one on one with Izzy…just sit or lay on the floor, and let the kitty come to you. Try a little cat nip if you have to. Its worth a try
Great advice chris! Nobody else has mentioned cat nip yet. And Kristen don’t how old your kitty is but sometimes they only respond to it when they are sexually mature. Happened to me with my Nikki-Kat. she first reacted at 9 months or so. She goes totally bonkers and then she collapses from sheer fatique!:))
Advice: Raise the live stuff if you possibly can. It smells better and is more attractive than the dried, plus it’s cheaper. Catnip is a cousin of spearmint and has many of the same growing habits (like aggressiveness!). It’s easy to raise, but if you cannot get it out of the reach of strays, find someplace else. It will attract every stray in your neighborhood.
izzy is a least 2-years old i think….hard to tell we found her as a stray and im not very good at guessing a cat’s age so we guessed about 2
Very cute….. But Please be carefully of package materials my cat got a hold on one of the peanuts and tryed to eat he thought is was popcorn . My husband gave him popcorn so he thought the peanut was popcorn. My husband had a hard time getting it out of his mouth. And got bite for his trouble. He could have choked or gottten sick from it.
And yarn is bad too. If they eat it . It can get twisted around intestines and cause damage. Or even kill them, so be carefull Please what kitty plays with. Voice of experience. keep cute kittens coming. Thanks
*Mutant Footsie FUZZ*
You are so right Kathy! We must learn from other people’s mishaps. Years ago when one of my kitties came very close to needing surgery cause she ate yarn. We were just lucky she pooped it out. Now I am extra careful with my furbabies :))
What do you think I should paint them red or pinK?????
In ‘Cranford’ a puss eats some old lace that has been washed in milk to keep the colour, but returns it without damage to lace or herself thanks to an emetic. I’m on the northwest English coast and am currently catless. Sigh! First time since I was four years old and I hate it. Too close to a very busy road and not a great neighbourhood.
This little charmer would do me very nicely thank you.
Well you cannot be without a kitty in your life but please consider keeping her/him indoors. Have had kitties all my life, (I am 37) We would never have even thought of letting them out. They have all been and are very happy!
I LOVE polydactyl cats!!
Thanks everyone for responding to locations
What a beautiful little Mukluk! That’s quite a pile of “ghost poop” she’s playing in.
Chester, I have fetched up in SW Washington, just across the Mighty Columbia from Portland, OR. I started in Central NY, and have also lived in CT, MA, TX, VA, IL, and CA. I also spend a lot of time in Southern OR with my brother, and AZ, where my mother and sister live in Tucson.
Wow Hey thanks for responding. That area is one I long to go to. Plan on going there before I die.
Thanks, Chester
What an absolutely precious picture! This kitty will bring you lots of happy times. A little mischief is good sometimes. There’s a little stray kitty here at the campground and she’s so tiny. I pet her and am trying to become closer to her. I don’t want to force myself on her. I don’t really have much time to spend with her right now. The busy season is almost over and if she is still around, I’ll have to see what develops. I have 3 indoor cats right now, 2 of which I got here at the campground (Tigger is 3, Pip Squeek is 6, and Spooky is 12). Seems this time of year, people drop off the litters of kittens. Already found a home for one sweet babe. Hope you all have a good day and love your kitties!
And I thought I was being imaginitive calling my multi-toed kitten Polly!
Chester-I’m in Syracuse, New york
You’re not far from me. I’m in Montezuma, NY
i have four kitties in the house and they all have extra toes. They are so sweet and they came from the barn(:))
Sweet! SO cute
