Cat dictionary
Feb. 26th, 2009 02:20 pmDoes anyone else remember Sniglets? Comedian Rich Hall's collection of words for things that don't have definitions in any dictionary? I think we need one for cats. These two would be my entries.
ear-whip verb, transitive To be hit repeatedly by the ears of a cat when it shakes its head quickly, next to another surface (esp human skin). "When Blues woke up from his nap on my chest, he totally ear-whipped my cheek and it stings like a son-of-a-bitch."
catiquet noun [from cat (feline) and ~quet (tourniquet)] A stance used by a cat whereby all circulation is cut off when their front paw(s) are placed on a major human artery or vein, usually involving an exponential increase in pounds per square inch of pressure. "Olive completely put a catiquet on my leg tonight and it's turning blue."
