>>(I posted this question a while back but did not get any responses.)
>>
>>Is this normal?
>>
>>He has four fingers on each of his front legs, but only three toes on each foot.
>>
>>For comparison, my female has four and four. Could he be a hybrid of some sort? Other than the toes, he is undeniably a Russian.
>>
>>Should I euthanize?

NO you shouldn't euthanize. It's a pet, not the final link in the survival of a "pure" species.

Do a good job of keeping it an enjoy it for what it is.

Post a photo if you can.
