I've heard 'cat's pajamas' used before and think it to mean something good or favorable. I'm wondering what its origin is. I mean, think about it. Anyone know how, why or where that expression came from?

1920s Lingo describing someone (something) who is great, incredible or special. Usually indicating stylishness or innovation. Pajamas were a relatively new fashion in the 1920s. The term "cat" was beginning to be used as a term to describe the out going and unconventional jazz-age flappers.
