Cultural Connection: Cats as Familiar Companions

In French culture, cats are often seen as familiar companions rather than mere pets. The word “chat” is used to refer to both male and female cats, while “chatte” specifically refers to a female cat. Understanding this distinction can help you navigate conversations about these beloved feline friends in French-speaking regions.
