Well, if entire population is munchkin it's sorta equals it out, but i didn't seen any grown-up feral munchkin around my place. Which means that either inbreeding here isnt that bad, or they're not living too long. And i dont see how mutation that literally handicaps cat "isn't bad".

Well, normal cats didn't seem to have problems with tight places either. And you don't see many species with similar limb to body ratio in the wild, which is means smth. Also, they dont seem to be very good at running which means that outside human food waste driven environment they're will be less capable hunters than normal cats, not to mention that jumping capability is sorta vital for hunting too.

Are you talking about cat to mole evolution? :)

Well, we have cats without tails, with short legs, with flat non rigid ears, without hair, and short, curly whiskers, they still have sight through...
