In a private email, HP Saucy confessed to me that although he has a great fondness for dogs (particularly as an accompaniment to noodles), what he’d really like to see is a thread of songs with a tenuous connection to felines. Bless. He’s a bit shy about expressing his deep love of pussy (and indeed his love of deep…sniiiip….(that’s enough! Ed.), and asked me to kick things off instead. Please do join in, everyone, and make the old boy happy.
Here’s David.
He made that pussy purr with a stroke of his hand

The immortal Coasters….
What a splendid idea for a thread, Mrs B! A cursory Google came up with this at the top of the list – is this what you’re looking for?
(I haven’t watched it myself, because as you know, I’m a dog man)
What a charming song! The gentleman is clearly an animal lover!
And it sounds like he’s keen on dogs, too. Well, female ones at least.
And so is his male chicken
The cat’s whiSKAs
An utterly pointless thread about cat-related music: my question is Mogwai?
Oh, nicely done!
Mogwai?

(If old Saucepot were here, he’d tell you we’ve already had this one, dear tigger.)
Sorry. I haven’t really been paying attention. Saints have just won a very tight game away at Warrington.
Ah right, I don’t really follow snooker.
It doesn’t matter. Tigger is such a comment whore he’ll put anything here to make it seem more popular than poor old Kaisfatdad’s Nudist Trampolining thread.
Oi Saucy! Get out of bed and come and ‘curate’ this thread of yours. Kaisfatdad is kicking your sorry arse at the moment!
I’m too busy buying trampolines for my nudist hideaway to participate here as much as I’d like. Alas!

Sorry H. P.! Members only.
Women aren’t allowed, then? They don’t have members do they?
What we have here is (Mike) Giles, (Peter) Giles and Fripp with added Greg Lake (on vocals only) and Keith Tippett.
Sensational!

At this time on a Saturday evening, my thoughts turn towards the comforts of something warm and furry.
Used on a cat food ad in the 90s

There is a cat in this video, I promise
Ever so slightly nsfw
I was going to post Steve Diggle’s Buzzcocks F.O.C. tune Life With The Lions but I cannae find it!

Hmmm…which cat or dog-related thread should I post this video on?
Well, the cat IS mentioned first, you know:
Ubangi – “The Little Cat and the Dirty Dog”. Featuring a man playing a helmet-drum, and another man wearing it.
About spiritism and cats…
Nice to see the French chapter of the John “Irish” Earle Impersonation Society giving something back to the community.
@moose-the-mooche, That could look like an “air saxophone”. but the theme of the song (a piritist séance disturbed by the static electricity produced by a cat) is original,
Do you want me to translate it for you ?
They can blame the cats all they want, it’s those taches that are causing all the trouble.
Has ‘Stray Cat Blues’ fallen foul of Operation Yewtree?
The young lady is 15 but there is deniability around any sexual contact. That’s my reading of it anyway.
There’s the ever charming and tasteful Machine Gun Fellatio with “Pussy Town”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EItYM2TOAQA
Or Grinderman’s similarly classy “No Pussy Blues”
It also raise the question of what the hell Pussycat Dolls are doing in my record collection.
