📏​,🐱​, 'pataphysics, cataphysics 

During a conversation with @anthracite this morning, we discussed the impoverished state of metric cat education in this country.

Everyone is familiar with the SI base unit of felinity, the "cat" (symbol: 🐾​) But outside of the ailurological science and engineering fields, few are aware of the derived units:

* the pounce (​🐾/s)
* the wiggle (🐾/s²)
* the sits (🐾/kg)
* the fits (🐾/m³)
* the sploot (🐾/m²)
* the mew (dB/🐾)
* the snooz (🐾/joule)
* the everready (ampere/🐾)
