To find the number of cats, we first need to determine the total number of parts in the ratio, which is 5 + 2 = 7 parts.

Next, we divide the total number of dogs and cats (63) by the total number of parts (7):
63 / 7 = 9

Therefore, each part in the ratio represents 9 animals.

To find the number of cats, we multiply the number of parts representing cats (5) by the value of each part (9):
5 * 9 = <<5*9=45>>45

Hence, there are 45 cats.
