Some useful text when someone makes the argument that observation is feline / canine, based solely on presence / absence of claw marks:

@user the presence or absence of claw marks is not a feature that should be used to separate felines from canines, as cats can show claw marks when they are moving in snow, mud, or moving quickly. Likewise, many canine tracks do not show claw marks. It is one of several lines of evidence to be evaluated.
