1. JSnider: "I honestly can't see how it looks like shoes made to look like feet or even why that's a good idea."

Aesthetic. I'd totally wear boots where the toes are molded to look like cat paws.

2. The concept art is exactly why I believe there really is possibility that his trait is cat paws on his feet.

Lineart - Doesn't acknowledge the cat toes, but that's exactly it. It's like the lineart may be for the purpose of his outfit, and that's why it ignores the toes.

Front view - See, in the concept art, they do actually look like separate toes. So, if it is supposed to be toes and not just a design molded into his boots, whoever made the model didn't do a very good job at making the toes actually look separate from each other. It instead ended up looking like there are just some light creases molded into his boots to give the appearance of cat paws without actual cat paws. It certainly would've helped if the texture had the claws colored differently from the toes, but instead, it's all the same shade of white, giving the impression that it's all the same material.

Side view - If you look closely, the toes are lower down than the top of the boot's foot part, which does give the impression of open-toed boots with the toes being his actual toes sticking out.

Even though I can see cat paws being an actual possibility, the model looks weird, and there's no 100% certainty behind its canonicity.
