It's like herding cats: 1. it's a very difficult task, 2. it's a funny task, 3. it's a mundane task
It's a very difficult task.
A fat cat.
A plump person.
A clumsy person
A rich person.
A cat in gloves catches no mice.
Being too polite can prevent you from accomplishing
Worrying about your image can prevent you from success
Wearing gloves will make you look suspicious
Not have a cat in hell's chance.
No chance of success at all.
No chance of being believed at all.
No chance of surviving at all.
It's raining cats and dogs!
It's drizzling.
It's sleeting.
It's pouring.
It's the cat's pyjamas!
That's awful!
That's cool!
That's irrelevant!
They fight like a cat and dog.
They always argue.
They always fight.
They never fight.
Has the cat got your tongue?
Why are you singing?
Why are you arguing?
Why aren't you saying anything?
There's more than one way to skin a cat.
There is more than one way to cook an animal.
There is more than one way to do the same task.
There is more than one way to catch a liar.
When the cat's away, the mice will play.
When the boss is away, people often misbehave.
When the boss is away, people work harder.
When the boss is away, people organise a BBQ party
He's looking like the cat that swallowed the canary.
He is looking very nauseous and sick.
He is looking very smug and pleased with himself.
He looks sleepy after eating.
There is not enough room to swing the cat.
There is no room to play a game
It is a tightly confined space.
There are too many people
Who's she, the cat's mother?
She thinks she is an important person
She is believed to be an important person.
She is an important person.
The cat's out of the bag.
The prisoner has escaped.
A lot of money has been spent.
The secret has been revealed.
Looks like something the cat dragged in.
Something shiny.
Something dead.
Something messy.
Curiosity killed the cat.
Being too inquisitive can get you into trouble.
Cats can die if they ask questions.
Cats are very inquisitive animals.
A cat nap.
Having a hangover.
Going to sleep.
Having a siesta.
