  1. I've heard that cats are more related to hyenas than dogs are. Scientists took x rays and it was indeed proven their DNA is more related to cats. Another reason they are more realated to cats is because the PURR and lick their fur the same way cats do. hyenas are also part of an animal group called "Herpestidea". The animals in that group are meerkats, ect. This is indeed true. They may look like wild dogs, but are related to cats and meerkats.
