The pads act as shock absorbers when they land. In animals like polar bears the pads are covered with a thick layer of fur so you can't see them. But cats originate from hot countries, so they have bald pads. The design is like the soles of your feet, check the ball of your foot and heel, the areas that take the most impact when you walk.

Hunting prey, stealth. It also reduces the shock effect when the cat is jumping, running etc. Remember, it doesn't have shoes.

-to help them tread quietly so that they dont disturb their prey or be heard by their predators.
-to protect their feet when they are active.
