Is “gata” vulgar? What about “gatita”?

  • 0

It’s been indicated to me that in French “la chatte” (feminine version of “le chat”, the cat) is used as a vulgar term and its usage is somewhat delicate.

Does the same apply to gata, or gatita?

    “Gato”, and its feminine form “gata”, are the normal way of referring to animals of the Felis silvestris catus subspecies.

    “Gatita” is a normal way of referring to one’s female cat, or any other female cat to which one has sentimental attachment.

    On the other hand, the same words “gata” and “gatita” can be used to refer to a woman. This second usage is, at least, familiar, and may be deemed vulgar or offensive depending on the context.
