Not really sure why you would use the letter "å" here.

As a Swede, "cåt" is pronounced exactly like "kåt", which is slang for horny.....

I believe they used ä not å and my guess would be it's because of the eyes

Huh for me its ä. While in swedish ä is only close to cat, in finnish for example its exactly the same sound so ä is a pretty solid pick.
