Not good for either. It might be mildly amusing to pronounce it PaREE, but only once or twice.

I can picture that on a white, fluffy cat.
I once met an old lady who had been a young girl in occupied Paris during the Second World War. She said that food was scarce because the German armed forces always got priority, but one day suddenly, rabbit meat was available in all the butchers and all the ladies happily baked rabbit pie. Which was greatly enjoyed, until everyone started noticing that there weren't any cats to be seen any more ... so my associations with Paris and cats aren't very positive at all!
By the way, she was a Jew and survived the occupation, nobody queried her family's identity, nobody reported them to the Germans, and - as she said - luckily, most French women were dark-haired and dumpy so her family didn't stand out!
