There is a problem, however, with spinning cats. Take the "kitten on a turntable" experiment when entering phase three, for example.

Phase One is 33 1/3 RPM
Phase Two is 45
Phase Three is 78

Cats spun around any axis for any duration tend to begin reverse digestive tract weight reduction procedures, usually in projectile mode. It has been demonstrated that cats can "throw up" multiple times their own body weight in a single session.

This action does, however, eventually reduce the mass of the cat. Small cats can't turn toward the ground with the same force as a non-diminished cat. Taken over the long term, the toast will win out.

You wind up with buttered toast on the ground and a feet up, thin, cat.

Now two cats duct taped back-to-back, even if they are not of the same weight, can achieve remarkable results.

Please note that the above is intended to be and exercise in humor. I would never do that to my cats.
