A word to refer to cats informally in China (or Chinese diaspora groups), and is used to mimic the onomatopoeia cats make when they meow. It also follows customs of names in China, referring to someone's name using two syllables/ characters, therefore the repetition in the name. a big misconception is that it is used as a name for cats, but it is used to refer to a singular cat you know in general, and not used as a name. Similarly how we name our dad's "my old man", even though we formally refer to them as our dad, people may interchangeably change between the two, with the least used term often being used informally.
