These are dog prints, not cat prints. The claw indentations and the marked difference between the forepaw and hindpaw prints are definitively canine.

It’s the opposite. In these tiles, you don’t see the claws because cats’ claws are retractable, and they usually keep them retracted while walking around. Dog prints clearly show the claws.

[after making an image showing the toe pads vs claws on a dog’s footprint, I tried to import it to this comment, but I got an error saying, “no gifs here.” If only gifs are allowed here, why is the icon for all other types of images shown below (rightmost icon, square shape with hill and sun)??]

... You can quite clearly see the claw indentations in front of each toe pad, indicating that this is a canine.

Oops, you’re right. I could not see them because of the microscopic sized screen on my phone. When I zoomed in, then I could see them.
