Cats are the most popular pets among Ameri-cans.So it is not surprising there are many expres-sions about cats.Do you know any of them? Now let me introduce some to you.
Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries.If someone looks very proud or satisfied with him-self, we say he looks like the cat that ate the canary.
Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches.So if you play cat and mouse with someone, you change between different kinds of behavior when dealing with another person.For example, a child might offer something sweet to her little brother, and then take it away when he reaches for it.
A cat will often catch a small animal and present it to its owner.The saying “that looks like something the cat dragged in” describes something in bad condi-tion.
A fat cat is a person with a lot of money.
