Cats can swim.

in fact, they're much better natural swimmers than dogs.

I haven't really seen cats swim much, but some dogs, especially retriever breeds, are very strong swimmers. I used to have a lab mix that could make headway against pretty strong river currents. Some breeds, like pugs and bulldogs can't swim, or, more accurately, they can swim but can't keep there nose above water, so they will drown if they can't get out quickly.
