Hackfleisch

Hwaet! My sister and I were having lunch, and we were reading the German text on our Maggi bottle of soy sauce. I don't know why there's German on it, but there is. Anyway, today we noticed the word "Hackfleisch" in the ingredients section, and I was like "hey, that sounds like a great name for my kitteh!" It conjured up images of a cute little cat hacking up a furball. In fact, it sounds just like it.
And then we google translated it.
"It means... minced."
"Minced?"
"Oh right, it must literally mean something like... hacked flesh."
"Ohh. Gross! ... And why is there minced meat in our soy sauce?"
But now that I think about it, it's the perfect name for a hunter pet. HACKER OF YOUR FLESH. Now I just need to change the word into something like "mincer of meat" instead of "minced meat". Any German-speaking friends who can halps? :)

Thanks for the help! *hugs*
