I am fond of saying that the cats are quanta of entropy.
Mind you, I have published on thermodynamic matters in peer-reviewed journals (albeit not lately), so my musings, arguably, do have some cred.

For a quantum of entropy Shannon coined the term "bit".I am fond of saying that the cats are quanta of entropy.

Then using your terms would you call 3 quanta of entropy a "cat byte"?

In England?
The pastor asked if anyone in the congregation would like to express praise for answered prayers.
A lady stood, walked to the podium and said, "I have a praise. Two months ago, my husband Tom had a terrible bicycle wreck, and his scrotum was completely crushed. The pain was excruciating and the doctors didn't know if they could help him." You could hear a muffled gasp from the men in the congregation as they imagined the pain that Tom must have experienced.
"Tom was unable to hold me or the children," she went on, "and every move caused him terrible pain. We prayed as the doctors performed a delicate operation, and it turned out they were able to piece together the crushed remnants of Tom's scrotum and wrap wire around it to hold it in place." Again the men in the congregation were unnerved and squirmed uncomfortably as they imagined the horrible surgery performed on Tom.
"Now," she announced in a quavering voice, "thank the Lord Tom is out of the hospital, and the doctors say that with time his scrotum should recover completely."
All the men sighed with relief. The pastor rose and tentatively asked if anyone else had something to say. A man stood up and walked slowly to the podium. He said "I'm Tom." The entire congregation held its breath.. "I just want to tell my wife that the word is sternum."

Gonna name-check @August West as he might find this enjoyable and/or at least amusing.

Innovation and technology join forces to the benefit of sustainable progress. This concept is synonymous with saving water and optimising space. Its innovative system filters the wash-basin water so it can be reused in the toilet. A unique, distinct and original design that brings elegance and sustainability to the bathroom.
