While nothing can match the original by Joy Division, I'm very fond of Emilíana Torrini's version of Love [Dunk] Will Tear Us [You] Apart, qv.
Also please check out, if you haven't already, Robert Wyatt's Shipbuilding.

Actually not one on the list but mentioned under Suede's Shipbuilding: "This led me to discover the definitive 1982 version sung by Robert Wyatt and featuring Costello, which has superb brushed drums and double bass. A masterpiece."

Ask the police if they're aware of any cat burglars operating in the area.

You'll have to go round all the neighbourhood cats asking if they've lost a toy. Or stick it on a lamppost.

Do you know for a fact that it's a cat toy?
Perhaps your cat made it.
