It's not just hunting dogs that have a white tipped tail. African wild dogs have the same white tip. In the wild, that white tip helps keep the pack in contact while hunting. For hunting dogs, it helps the hunter keep track of where his/her dogs are.

What is your cat saying if it wags its tail?

Cats don't really "wag their tails". If your cat is lashing its tail from side to side, it's probably upset about something. A cat may twitch the tip of its tail, which is somewhat different; it doesn't seem to really mean anything other than "I can twitch the tip of my tail, so I think I'll do that." That's not entirely true; cats usually twitch the tip of their tails when they are hunting.
