What would you call her? I usually say mercat but I just saw purrmaid and it sounds lovely. What do you think? listen to the sea muffled hustle and bustle -- tranquility rests

Well, we mix it with "cat" and get Spanglish—like modern people do, hahaha. "Purr" in Spanish is *ronroneo*, with a strong "r" sound.

I vote for purrmate, too. Mercat makes me thinks of meerkat--super cute in their own right but a different vibe.

CaylaCatz

but if you used Spanish, wouldn't it be gato? so focagato? what is purr in spanish?

Her sea-glass scales and curious green eyes make purrmaid feel absolutely perfect.

CaylaCatz

yeah, I probably don't sound like rrrrr but my cat Pinkie does, lol

CaylaCatz

oh wow! ronroneo is really long but it does sound cool.

purrmaid is fun, like it more than mercat. Cool video

What if a mercat runs into a meerkat on a leisurely swim... 😀

CaylaCatz

you're right about meerkat. I hadn't thought of that

The trick must be in the rrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
