I need help with a particular type of morph - human to animal

What I'm trying to do is animate a transformation from human to cat. If you've seen the movie Willow, you have some idea what I mean by this. I've been searching for months to figure out this morph/transformation and come up with plenty of human-human morph tutorials, but none for a complete human to animal morph transformation. Thus, I'm hoping to pick a few expert brains and see if it's even possible to do.

To a regular house-cat? I don't think that would be practical - and in any event you'd need to create the cat morph since there isn't one for Genesis. Using something like one of RawArt's lycanthropes would get you part way, though they are of course wolf-like rather than cats, but you would still have the problem of settings up a texture transition. Even today most such transitions are at least partially handled in 2D, using footage of the human and footage of the animal then morphing between them, as far as I know.

I sort of figured it would take an outside program to do it, I was hoping DAZ could handle it, but wanted to be sure. Maybe someday it'll be able to do it. Thanks for your help.
