Expert answer. Around the time children learn to walk, roughly any time between 8 and 18 months, they often have an unsteady gait, walk with their legs bowed and feet far apart, and sometimes prefer to walk on their tiptoes.

Cats walk on the tips and balls of their toes or âdigitsâ. This is known as digitigrade walking. Each digit or toe has a claw, and there are usually five toes or digits on each cat forefoot and four on each hindfoot. A catâs and a dogâs paw pads are spongy pads of thick skin beneath each foot, assisting with silent movement and protecting the underlying bones and joints from injury during running and jumping.
