    So if a civet starts "showing some affection" that means we should really take a bath.

    There's a little mistake in the introduction. They don't belong to the same family as mongooses. Civets belong to Viverridae, while mongooses belong to Herpestidae.

    The Civet belongs to the Carnivore suborder Feliformia, which includes Felids, Hyenas, and Mongooses. They are more closely related to Felids and other Feliform mammals than to Caniform carnivores such as dogs, bears, or raccoons.
