   It's odd he didn't express his love of cats in his music, the only cat   
   connections I can think of off the top of my head are "Three Cool Cats"   
   back in the Hamburg days and his contribution to Harry Nilsson's "Pussy   
   Cats" album.   
      
   Then I guess you could include "...pussy....pussy" at the end of "Yer Blues."
