Dogs are bad, so they get the negative phrases.  "The cat's meow"
means that something is very good.  :)

As a cat person, I agree entirely.  This is pretty much the only
time in my life that I'll express agreement with the English
language... being surrounded by nothing but ESL people now (and
trying to teach them better English), I have newfound appreciation
for what a completely stupid language English is.
