I suspect that's a mistranslation of 'Kater', which curiously not only means 'hangover' but also 'tom cat'. The same is true in Dutch, but how about Afikaans, Numi?

Here's our tan moggy, sadly no longer with us. He adopted us when he was 18 months old and stayed with us for the next 13 years, as you can see he was lord of the manor, he loved his home comforts but was a terror in the local neighbourhood. We still miss him terribly after 8 years but he gave us a lot of joy ( and a few worries).

Hi Idris,
Tom Cat in Afrikaans reads Manlike Kat
Female Cat in Afrikaans reads Vroulike Kat
Cat in Afrikaans reads Kat
A few Cats in Afrikaans reads Katte

Sad tale Johnboy,sorry to hear this.These cats simply rip our hearts away when they have gone.All that lingers are those near-to-life memories.
Cute Boy though.

Ah! so do these chocolate covered wafers need as much looking after as Cats, do we have to house-train them with litter trays and will they let us put flea collars on them, if the answer is no to all these, then I am certainly gonna get me one of those...
