The term swing a dead cat refers to a Cat-o-nine-tails whip not a house pet.

A “Dead Cat” was a bare whip without hooks, glass, or knots in the flails. It “couldn’t bite,” so it was dead.

Just trivia about the term. I would never swing a dead skunk.

I’m a bit concerned that you show so much familiarity with whips.

You’re not one of those Sado Mashedpotato people, are you?
