Trivia
When Tokyo Movie Sinsha decided to make this film, one of the candidates for the director was Hayao Miyazaki, who had directed "Rupan Sansei Kariosutoro No Shiro" for them. But he declined the offer by insisting that he would change the whole concept from the point of view of cat characters.

Goofs
When Chie and Tetsu are back home after the visit in the school, they are having an argument. At one point, Chie's grandma (Tetsu's mother) throws one of the shoes she's wearing at Tetsu's head. Then Grandma keeps her shoe on and then not, it changes between shots.

Quotes

Takemoto Chie: BUT I LOVE SCHOOL ! CAN'T YA SEE IT ?

A down to earth drama, with some really weird cats sequences.

This film is about a girl trying to get her dad to find a job so that she can reunite her mum with him. I loved all the family drama and scenes with them. But the cats moments are kinda, weird.
