8 to swing a cat
«Качать кошку». Cat в этом контексте означает кошку, ременную плеть, состоящую из нескольких хвостов (cat o' (= of) nine tails). На кораблях кошками наказывали моряков. Наказание совершалось на палубе, так как в трюме было мало места. Выражение there's no room to swing a cat (негде повернуться) относится к очень узкой комнате, тесному помещению.I don't like Nina's flat. There's no room to swing a cat. — Мне не нравится квартира Нины. Там негде повернуться.
По другой версии, слово cat в Шотландии значит жулик, мошенник, и to swing a cat значит повесить жулика (имеется в виду виселица). -
