Would it not be "une chat"?
I thought French indefinite articles were gendered, like other romance languages like Portuguese and Spanish.
But it's been roughly 35 years since I dropped highschool french...

As a reward for being so helpful, here's a funny exchange I saw while looking for confirmation:
4 0 Reply"Un chat" is correct.
Masc. = un chat. Fem. = une chatte.
7 0 ReplyYeah, this is the correct take. Objects or inanimate things have arbitrary gender, but sexed animals can obviously be feminine or masculine.
Edit: Oooooh, its name is Emily. Misunderstood what the confusion was about. 'Une chatte' then.
