• One who is extremely anxious is 'as nervous as a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs'.
• To be on its last leg is an expression that stems from the practice of sawing the ends of chair legs off in previous centuries. It means that it is decrepit and nearing the end of its serviceability.
