There's a line at the beginning of Much Ado About Nothing where Benedick says if he ever gets married "You might as well hang me up like a cat and shoot at me" Which is kind of revealing about the society Shakespeare lived in

I did kind of like the joke in Pratchett's Soul Music where various characters and the narration keep saying the shitty knockoff rock band with the ever-changing name "sounds like a cat trying to use the restroom through a sewn-up bum"

(I did have a cat once who tragically died of a urinary blockage, which are sadly all too common with older male cats It cost a lot of money to try to save his life, and we failed, and it was very traumatic and not something to joke about)
