Pet's info: Cat | American Longhair | Female | spayed
I noticed strange stuff between the pads of my cats back paw, thankfully it doesn’t look like there’s any wound resulting in it but could you help me identify what it is?

Cats can sometimes get moist litter stuck between the pads. If Sarah goes outside, sap and tar are also possible. Try to clean and wash it off. This will give you a better idea what it is and to make sure the skin underneath is normal. Best of luck and please feel free to post any additional questions.
