Best Answer

Cats can run fast because of a couple of different body features. They have special paws that allow for unsurpassed traction and their bodies are symmetrical meaning that the limbs on each side of the body move in unison. Their lightweight skeleton helps to keep them light on their feet, making them move fast.

Cats can move very fast when the want to - reaching speeds of up to 30mph when running. Other times, cats can move very slowly and deliberately, or not move at all when asleep.

Either would survive just fine if they were born and raised wild, they were bred from wild animals I think cats and dogs have a pretty good chance of survivng too.
