The answer to the clue "Toe _ (weird term for a pad on a cat's paw)" in the NYT Mini Crossword puzzle of October 21 is "BEAN". The toes of cats and dogs are often called toe beans because of their cute size and softness.
I found this particular clue to be really easy, even though I’m the kind of dork who actively calls my dog’s toes “Toe beans.” Anyone without a pet or not as active on social media or modern slang might have found this more difficult. For that reason, I’m giving this clue a two out of five.
