What species do the domestic cat belong?

Proailurus was supposedly the common ancestor of all cats today. It was not a cat, but a catlike mammal. It eventually evolved into Pseudaelurus, an animal closer to the cat on the evolutionary chain. It then split into two groups; Machairodontinae and Schizailurus. The first was the true sabre-tooth cats (as opposed to marsupial sabre-tooths), and the other was the ancestor of all modern-day Felidae (modern cats).
