Australia is moving northwards by 1 or 2 metres a year, it's only a matter of time before it reaches a land with cats. What then? We might not be in a position to protect them then, it's better that they learn to live alongside cats now than have to suddenly learn rather quickly to live alongside tigers and leopards when we crash into china. One might even say that it is in their long term interest to have them live along side cats and dogs now. The survivors will be better of for it.
They are probably the same thing.
Now you are just being silly. Yes some have lighter bellies but it is not as common and I don't think the skeletal structure and musculature of a canine would lend themselves to flight, they lack the agility and flexibility of cats who are better able to twist, leap, and land than dogs and whose longer tails and flexible bodies would enable them to better manoeuvrer and shift weight in flight.
However, as your image shows even when the sea level was lower we were still not connected to Asia by land. It is believed that the ape population got here by island hopping, and it was previously believed that the dingo must have came with them. However, the dingo actually is not actually a domesticated dog, it's semi domesticated and furthermore the dingo arrived here before the ape population, so how then did they get here and could other Laurasiatheria follow this method to arrive here?
