Some Spanish expressions with gato:
- Llevarse como el perro y el gato - Dar gato por liebre - Ponerle el cascabel al gato - Aquí hay gato encerrado - Buscarle tres pies al gato - De noche todos los gatos son pardos - Llevarse el gato al agua Y yo soy gata de toda la vida. Ask me if there is something above that doesn't make sense.

¿Puedo contar un chiste en español sobre el tema? Es un juego de palabras, a ver si lo comprendéis. ¿Cuál es el animal que es animal dos veces? .... El gato, porque es gato y araña.
 By the way, my avatar is my cat, a female cat. Bu she doesn't scratch. Last edited by Rusty; April 16, 2009 at 09:25 AM. Reason: Merged back-to-back posts

 Voy a deducir que los gatos de España faltan uñas y no lucen nada los gatos del resto del mundo si tu avatar es un buen representivo a los gatos ibéricos.

Seguro te des cuenta de que la respuesta ya te fuiste de la lengua. Irse de la lengua = To let the cat out of the bag @poli: You'll find a few of the gato expressions and a few cat expressions already listed in the idiom dictionary. I'll add others.

Jajaja, los gatos españoles son pequeños... pero matones, jejeje.
Y la verdad es que el chiste se cuenta de otra manera. El animal que es animal dos veces es otro (  ?). El gato es animal tres veces, pero eso va a ser más difícil de explicar... To be continued...
