It sounds like he either has some strange kind of skin condition affecting his feet, or that he is walking over some substance that is caustic and burns him. It is now Monday so I hope you have seen the vet.
I would keep him indoors as a house cat and see if that helps - if it does it suggests that someone outside is using a caustic chemical.
This pre-supposes that you don't wash your floor in bleach or something, of course!
