Is this an idiomatic exclamation? I don't see what the 'que' is doing grammatically.

Quelle vie impossible que celle d'une chatte comme moi !
Asked 3 years ago
No, it's not idiomatic. The "que" is used in the same meaning as it would be in a comparison ("than").
Quelle vie impossible que celle d'une chatte comme moi. -- "What an impossible life than that of a cat like myself." (literally)
