"Hydraulic jack" in Spanish is "gato hidrá​ulico"... the subcaption is "your best pet."

I love puns even when I need Google translate to sort them out. Also, my Spanish was never good and is now very rusty.

Are you telling me cat and jack are the same word? I failed one semester of Spanish in high school so I ain't even gonna argue either way.

In reply to Daylan C :

Yep. Or at the very least it's a common colloquialism. According to Google Translate, "jack" does come up as a direct translation for "gato." We reuse words in English all the time...
