What's wrong with this stray cat's paw, /an/? He doesn't look like in pain though.

When cats get very old, they begin to lose the ability to retract their claws. The claws grow thicker and brittle as they age to a point where they become too thick to retract and harder to shed by itself. Or, if a cat isn't able to shed their claws they can overgrow and not completely retract. I feel like the latter wouldn't be common for a stray cat as back claws are often shed or broken off in climbing, running, jumping and fighting which is vital for survival. You're probably looking at a cat that doesn't have much time left out in the 'wild'.

Oh ;_; thanks anon. I thought he's still young.
Might just be a birth defect
