This mat-forming plant spreads on over-grazed pastures. It has little forage value although flowers are sometimes grazed. Over ten species of this plant are common on the prairies. Leaves are mostly in basal rosettes and usually woolly or hairy. White or rose flower heads resemble the toes of a cat's paws.
