Dogs and cats cannot be mixed as a breed. They are entirely different species with very different genetics — dogs are Canis lupus familiaris and cats are Felis catus. Because of these fundamental biological differences, it’s impossible for them to interbreed or produce hybrid offspring.
However, dogs and cats can absolutely live together peacefully and form close bonds, but genetically they remain separate species.
If you’re curious about hybrid animals, there are some hybrids within the same family, like ligers (lion + tiger), but nothing crossing species as distant as dogs and cats.
