    Is there a name?? :O

    I always wounder, what do you call the lions fingers? Toes? I know the paw is the "hand" but what abput the "finger"? You gotta be kidding me by saying they actually call it toe, how does it sounds "They put the toe in the mouth?" Yeah, sure

    Is there a name at all? It has to be... even if I actually need the word in my language but please....A little help here?

    that will be the claw itself...you know, the black thing in the PAWs *something*.... But a claw in the mouth is like killing the character in question...!

    As Azerane said, they are technically called digits, which is really just another name for toe anyway.

    Why to felines, canines, skunks, weasels, ferrets, rats, and rodents have "paws", but only rabbits have "feet"?

    Our time on this planet is precious, and can be snuffed out at any moment. Every second of every day should mean something.

    So, digits will be the name? If it's the same name for toe it doesn't matter it's just that I can't use just the TOE word, it sounds very wierd...

    Yes digits is the correct term... and I agree, calling an animals digits 'toes' just sounds weird and too humanistic.
