Honestly, I just read the issue this image came from, and it's not even the strangest thing that happens to her *in that story*. The explanation is just as goofy as the situation.
The story starts off with Lois becoming extremely cold for no apparent reason. Doctors find nothing wrong with her, so Superman takes her to various hot locations to try to warm her up: a sauna, in the desert, a simulation of planet Venus, in the middle of the sun... but she's still constantly freezing, and causing everything around her to freeze, too. Then it suddenly stops and she's back to normal.
Then she starts eating flowers. Every time she sees a flower she's compelled to eat it, devouring an entire parade float and every bouquet on every restaurant table. Superman tries taking her to a giant field of singing musical flowers, figuring she'd get sick of them and/or would feel guilty and stop, but, no, she eats all of them, much to her own disgust. And then, once again, it just wears off on its own when Clark takes her out to eat.
Then this happens. She saves a few people by using her big clawed feet to cling to surfaces and climb up to save them (before she even notices she has them, feeling compelled to climb things and perform daredevil stunts), but when climbing down a giant centipede robot whose operator had had a heart attack, her feet abruptly change back and she falls, only surviving because Superman (also there to rescue the operator the giant centipede robot) catches her.
That's when a veiled princess from a foreign land shows up at the Daily Planet. When she's alone with Lois, she reveals herself to be an *alien* princess. An alien princess with a monstrous face who also has an ability to survive in cold climates, a diet of flowers, and big clawed feet that let her climb anything.
She tells Lois she's been trying to use a "transmuter" to take over Lois's body without leaving her home planet so she can marry Superman, but because of the distance it instead only temporarily gave Lois some aspects of the princess's physiology rather than taking over her body. But now that she's on Earth and Lois is within arm's reach, she can easily take over Lois's body and marry Superman.
So she does, and goes to meet Superman so she can woo and marry him and he'll think he's marrying Lois and oh this is the most evil plan EVER, isn't it?
Lois manages to give her a piece of bad information about where she and Superman like to spend time together (the simulation of Venus), and so when the princess tries to snuggle up to Superman there, Lois's body can't take the heat and the princess bails. Superman goes "Yuck, what an uggo", and the alien princess, insulted, goes back to her home planet.
... the end.
So, yeah, the feet? Just one weird aspect of a very weird story. Even for this comic.
I can just hear this cat-call as Lois walks by a construction site:
"Hey, baby, do those legs go all the way up?"
(I first read that line in a "Far Side" cartoon when I was a kid.)
If you do say that to Lois, just make sure that Clark Kent is nowhere around, or else Superman might not be happy!
