In Portuguese, I find it funny that gato/gata could be someone attractive or a literal cat.

Catalan has sheep to mean slut. Woodworm for somebody that pesters or annoys insistently. Ferret for a sly person. A rat, contrary to other languages where it's a traitor, is more used for stingy people.
Rata i curcó sí, però les altres dues ara no hi caic.
Edit: marrana, ara hi he caigut. Em falta l'altra.
Pècora, from mala pècora, a sheep that goes astray from the herd. And fura :)
I've never used pècora in that sense, only to mean bad person, more like removed.
