in that movie a man comes in to a room with a bottle of whine. he puts the bottle on to a desk and the bottle turns in to a cat that scrached him.
he falls scared down to the floor and runns out from the flat
in the other half of that movie he runs throug some street followed by the cat, after a wile he hide him self over the edge of a building and in the moment the cat comes to him she get be hitten by some wood from the man
on the end of the film on the floor was just a broken bottle of whine

I feel your pain:
I saw a short when I was in Austria for this thing, but I didn't see the very beginning so I never knew the title. It was being shown in some animation film festival on TV, and since there wasn't any discernible dialogue, I didn't have much to go on. I checked the web for years before I figured out what it was (Piet Kroon's DADA, by the way).
I found it on Google (eventually) by just typing in what I remembered and pawing through the results: something like "short books stack heads animation". No matter how smart search engines get (and google is probably the smartest), just remember that it pretty much boils down to keywords. There are a lot of search tricks you can use too, like + and - before keywords, quoting phrases, etc. Just keep trying: be patient and I'm sure you'll find it.
I tried poking around Google based on what you mentioned, but didn't find anything. That doesn't mean it isn't out there, though.

Ok, try google archive and you might find it. Good luck.
ola!
if this also has a bit of the man attempting to eat breakfast (he tries to eat a soft-boiled egg with a spoon, after which the spoon in his hand and the rest of the breakfast disappears/changes about) then it ought to be super-early Svanmajer: called "The Apartment" I think and made before he did full-blown stop motion.
Then again, who knows?
i'm not sure about the first one you mentioned, butthe breakfast one seems to be a Jan Svankmajer movie
try this

hmmm i do not think thats svankmajer because it was a black and white cartoon animation
but thanx :)
