Is cube a simple shape in physics? It' 3-dimensional and It's gonna do all sort of crazy flips due to aerodynamics and moment of inertia. I would prefer a 1-dimensional point like cat.

How would a point like cat be one dimensional? It would be zero dimensional. A one dimensional cat would be a line.

sorry. 0-dimensional cat moving in 2-dimensional space.
