Let's say we have three classes "A", "B" and "C". Can "C" class inherit from both "A & B" classes?

Answer 1

No as multiple inheritance of classes is not allowed
Edit: Sorry, I was mistaken, multiple inheritance is allowed in C++

Answer 2

It's allowed in C++ but it won't be meaningful if Cat class is inherited from class Dog, because a cat is not a dog. You can decide whether you should use Inheritance relationship or not by thinking of "IS-A" relationship.

If "class A is a class B" makes sense, then B is the parent class and A is a child class of B.

Let's consider the following statements:

Animal is a Dog - ❌
Animal is a Cat - ❌
Dog is an Animal - ✅
Dog is a Cat - ❌
Cat is an Animal - ✅
Cat is a Dog - ❌

So, Animal should be the parent class and both Dog 🐶 and Cat 🐱 should be it's child classes.
