Question

Is it normal for a cats paws to be cool or cold? What does this mean? Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Female | spayed | 4 months and 29 days old | 3 lbs

A cat can sweat from their paw pads, so they may feel cooler to the touch than the rest of their body. This is normal unless you are seeing any issues such as general signs of illness, or the paw pads look infected, cracked, or wounded.
