"if you throw it out the top floor window, even a dead cat would bounce". I shouldn't use the phrase though, as I'm actually very fond of cats. I think it's an example of society's bias against cats. If it were called "dead dog bounce" it would likely be taboo
“There is one thing that is absolutely certain about throwing a dead cat on the dining room table […] they will be talking about the dead cat – the thing you want them to talk about – and they will not be talking about the issue that has been causing you so much grief.”
Oh, about last night's date: she looked nothing like her profile picture. Total cat!
"The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy cats."
The trouble here is that the sentence no longer fulfills its cat-given goal of representing every English alphabet letter.
