Le Chat Saucisse circulates online as a French-language meme sound, and its original listing describes it as the distant cousin of Poisson Steve, which explains why the two jokes are often mentioned together. Rather than coming from a well-known film or song, its appeal rests on a simple absurd pairing: a familiar pet and an everyday food. That odd combination travels easily in short videos, reaction edits and cat compilations, where viewers recognise the joke instantly even without knowing its exact first upload.
