what is a discord kitten

A Discord kitten is a slang term used to refer to someone who receives pampering from another person through Discord servers. They usually receive gifts like Discord Nitro and virtual items in exchange for companionship or an online relationship. The term is usually used to refer to young and naive girls providing online, flirtatious relationships to older and wealthier men, but it can be used for anyone of any gender. The term was first used in a tweet by SlaytypeDA on December 30th, 2016, but it only gained popularity in 2021 when streamer and YouTuber Quackity used it to ask his "kitten" to serve him. Although there are actual people who enter Discord-kitten-daddy relationships, the term is usually used as a joke or a meme.
