I swung a cat around inside to prove to them that they were not going crazy. It didn't touch the sides once! In the U-137 there would have been cat brains smeared all over the place.
For the naval trivia buffs, that idiom doesn't refer to a mammal (cat) but to a cat o'nine-tails--a whip used for floggings.
