menw ta kenbe chat la yon lot kote

That's an interesting one!
Although the Creole word "chat" means 'cat', often Haitians will use that word to describe a burglar or a "very" private part of the female anatomy

The meaning is in the context.
"I would have held that cat somewhere else."
"I would have caught that cat somewhere else."
