It doesn't fool anyone, because the prononciation is very different between French and English.

  • english chat: t'chat
  • french chat: sha

Also if you want to ask your French cat if he is OK you should say: Sa va minou minou tout pipou?

You'll have to claim to be speaking medieval French to get the pronunciation right. The cat is just old-fashioned, it's fine

That's why I'm naming all my cats "t'chatte" from now on.

My inability to make a proper feline t'bite joke here might be what gets me to pick up french again.
