When someone or something is the best or close to it. Sometimes someone can think there this but are not. For example a person with a nice new hair cut who is still fugly but think there all that.See the dogs bollocks or bees knees or all that and a bag of chips.The catโs meow is a fairly uncreative alternative to the dogsโ bollocks when children are in the room.
George, your zoot suit is quite the cat's meow! Perhaps now you will have a chance of capturing the attention of that flapper Matilda, she of the crimson ankle-baring swimsuit!
