gatito /ɡaˈt̪i.t̪o/

immortalized in the name of the pokemon Sprigatito. also just a diminutive of 'gato' for cat but its more fun to say

You can just keep adding "it" before the final vowel to make it smaller and cuter - gatitititito

It has three syllables and it's more fun to say in a talking to the kitty voice than just "kitty!" "Mi gatito!!" Rolls off the tongue better

You can theoretically keep adding the diminutive to get a tinier and tinier little cat. Gatitito. Teeny baby

gato /ˈɡa.t̪o/

no propawganda submitted

car /kɑɹ/

Almost everyone that likes cats has used it before

It's how I call the silly ones. I think it's quite silly. Also cars go vroom and kittycars go vroom too (purring, zooming) so it pretty accurate

funny misspelling that stuck around for a reason

which reigns supreme?

minino

三毛猫

Voting ended onMar 22, 2025

info and propawganda under the cut!

minino /miˈni.no/

"my" in Spanish is "mi" and it's fun to say "mi minino" AND if you add the diminutive (because all language is made up etc.) you can say "mi mininito" or even "mi mininitito" which is like sickeningly sweet and cute for an already sweet and cute and affectionate word for kitty. less formal and more kawaii than gato

三毛猫 (sānmáomāo) /sän˥ maʊ ˧˥ maʊ˥/

The word has a nice bounce to it. Tone goes flat rising flat
