Do cats have paw prints?

Cats do not have paw prints, but they have nose prints. Nose prints are a unique identity symbol for cats. The identity of a cat can be identified through nose prints, which are similar to human fingerprints. Although cats do not have paw prints, their pads have many shapes and have many functions. The cat's pads have sweat glands, which can help the cat dissipate heat, and can also play a non-slip and silent role when the cat moves.
