A pure cat pupil would be the result of trauma or some other disease.
A "Keyhole" pupil, (Iris coloboma), is only "notched" inferiorly, not all the way across, though if the lid covers the upper portion, an observer might so assume.
It's rare but not that rare.
The rest of the eye may or may not be affected. It's a developmental "failure of closure" as a cleft palate or hare lip would be.
As the previous responder has said, the missing Madeleine McCann has one as a very important distinguishing mark.
Hers is slightly unusual even for its type, because they more commonly angle in rather than out.

Have you looked at close up pictures of the missing British girl Madeleine McCann? Next time you see her picture, look at her right eye. She's got that feature, which is quite rare. If she is ever found alive, that will be the one thing that will identify her.
