Humans have nipples because they develop in the womb before the sex of the baby is determined. Both males and females start with nipples, but only females use them for breastfeeding.

Is it possible to have nipples like a cat?

No. Have to look around the genital area. Ask a vet or another adult. The only way you could tell the sex of a cat by looking at the nipples would be if it is a nursing mother cat, in which case the breasts of the cat would be hanging lower and filled with milk. Otherwise a male cat's and a female cat's nipples look pretty much the same.

Why do males have nipples from an evolutionary perspective?

Males have nipples from an evolutionary perspective because nipples develop in embryos before the sex of the individual is determined. In mammals, including humans, nipples are a common feature that develops in all embryos, regardless of their eventual sex. This is because nipples are essential for feeding newborns, and it is more efficient for evolution to maintain nipples in both males and females rather than developing a separate system for males.
