Blimey - lost in translation AGAIN!
You nailed the creature I meant though. Not literally, as they are completely harmless and just bumble about. Despite an urban myth that they are venomous but simply can't pierce human skin (thanks Ricky Gervais).
I'm sure that's not the original No Cat, but it will do.
If I'm saying
no in a lighthearted manner (not when instructing a child about running with scissors for example) I often say it like that cat.
OHNONONONO....
It goes well with a shake of the head.
ETA - when I was cleaning the bookshelves at school at the end of last term I came across at least two species of biders I had never seen before. One spindly and one more compact. And both ALMOST TRANSPARENT! Lovely little things. The spindly one was so comical I doubt even a hardened arachnophobe could have been scared.
But I accidentally squashed one, it must have been on the box of books I pulled out and directly under my fat pink fingers.
Squish, crunch.
It waved two unbroken legs in despair, so I had to put it out of its misery.
I felt like Lady Macbeth
