While it's true that animals, including humans have a long list of tricks built into their bodies to increase their chances of a correct grasp, to enable force application in the first place, and in some cases to deliberately damage whatever they're grasping (thus wounding and/or killing prey), I think you'll find that the dexterity required to jump a cat body at all is very, very hard. Moving a cat body, at 130 kph, on an angle that will take the front claw (they always use the same one) across the throat of a wildly jumping around animal (with enough force to allow the claw to rip it open) while keeping that same cat body away from any hooves (one hit from even deer hooves will at the very least end the hunt of any puma, and can do damage up to killing it) is ... it's not just ridiculously hard. It's almost absurd what sort of control you'd need. I'm also not very sure how tactile sensors help, even if they could not just register contacts but air speeds as well, that does not seem like it would make the problem much easier. Plus cats are a very "general" body. The number of ways it can move, because it lacks a fully connected inner bone structure (so almost any cat joint can move remarkably far in almost any direction). I'm pretty sure this adds insult to injury and makes it a lot harder yet again.
