Tails was sleeping today so I was getting some rare pets in on his front legs. I noticed there's a bump just behind the thumb pad on each paw. I tried taking a picture, but it only looks like some skin showing through. Here's the picture so you can see what I mean about the location.



I don't know what to think since there's one on each paw in the same place. They're about half the size of a pea. Does anyone know what these bumps could be?

I don't know if there is a specific name for them but they are a vestigal pad and at least on the cats that allow me to prod, they are the same colour as the rest of the pads.
