Is the Tasmanian tiger in the cats family?
Neither. The Tasmanian tiger (actually the thylacine) was a marsupial; that puts it in whole separate subclass from dogs and cats, which are placentals. The thylacine occupied the ecological niche which is filled in other places by placental predators. All of the animals mentioned are mammals, but that's about as closely as they're related.
