1. For a female, meaning 'slut' or 'whore'.
2. Less commonly, males of a lower income (the "villeros") use it to call one another.

Gato is a Hispanic person nicknamed for his resemblance to a cat. He is attractive having a slim or fit body and colored eyes that are almost hypnotic. Gato has a wild personality and can be both introverted and outgoing when he pleases. His emotions affect his behaviour because he is a hot head and can't take jokes but his anger usually ends almost as soon as it began. He gets jealous when he doesnt get the attention he wants and can become sassy and petty or At worst try to fight somebody. At times he can be rather annoying or impulsive but it doesn't become a problem. He has a twisted and unusual sense of humor that can scare people away or confuse them. Gato can seem crazy or dumb but he is very deceptive, making you think he's one step back when He's really 3 steps ahead. Gato can also be popular for his lively attitude and charm, he's very adventurous and bold, but his rebelious ways can bring him trouble. As a friend he's very selective and keeps few friends but As a lover he is very loyal and selfless towards his sweetheart and completely devotes his life to her. Gato can be difficult to understand but he's overall a fun person to hang out with.
