The most well-known of course is Hello Kitty :catgirl:

Jiji from Kiki's Delivery Service was mentioned in the "Dog" thread.

Chi of Chi's Sweet Home has her own show.

Kotatsu(sp?)-neko from Urusei Yatsura is the other I can remember.

Must be others...

I know there are loads, but the only cats that come to mind right now are Lord Cat from Pani Poni Dash and Pete from Zone of the Enders. Does Chiyo's 'father' from Azumanga Daioh count? What about Nuku Nuku? :)

Fat cat on the roof in Chobits, in fact, it seems to be a theme of longing in alot of series where a cat is on the roof meowing to the night.

Oh yeah, that one! If I remember right, there were two of 'em as well. And thinking of corpulent felines, I just remembered two others; the cat from FLCL, and Alice (aka 'The Admiral') from Stratos 4. Can't believe I forgot them.

I'm absolutely shocked that no one mentioned the cats from Sketchbook. Poor Mike, Haa, Grey, Kuma and Buchi

Hmmm, wonder if I should start a famous chickens in Anime thread in honour of Pii...

To continue the fuzzy memory thought train, I think they ended up with kittens.

Lilu, I believe. That was an extremely well-written episode.

Also, the poor cats who were murdered in Now and Then, Here and There and Revolutionary Girl Utena

I weep for these cats, too... :(

I would have considered mentioning them, but I'm not sure if they qualify as "famous". Which may be part of the reason I never brought anything up in this or that other thread. Although I get the feeling that people are mostly just bringing up their favorites.

I wonder if Pii would get along well with the Lord Chickens.

"The Biting Cat" from Azumanga Daioh

"Kamineko", if you don't mind.

(And may as well stick Maya up there as well...Yama-pikanyaaa!)

Torajima from Urusei Yatsura come to mind for me.

And Nyaoh, if catgirls count. :catgirl:

And for those who complained about Giroro's "Mr. Furbottom" in Funi's Sgt. Frog test episode, their writers listened to the fan complaints ("What happens when we find out it's female?"), bowed its will to the voice of the people, took its mandate to heart, thought long and hard, spent long nights going back to the drawing board, and renamed the character for the final dub:
The character is now "MISS Furbottom".

On the more anthropomorphic side, there's half-human, half-cat Natsuki of Hyper Police, and we mustn't forget cat-brain-in-machine-body All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku-Nuku.

Yutanpo is depressed about not being included. Yutanpo needed more screen time. Yutanpo has an interesting tail. For some reason, I felt like saying Yutanpo. I suppose I probably spelled it wrong too.

He's already been mentioned, but Jingoro from Kimagure Orange Road has always been my favorite anime cat. :)

Also, Mughi of the Dirty Pair.

One not mentioned yet that immediately came to my mind was Admiral the cat from Stratos 4.

No, that's how to spell Yutanpo (http://kimoto.cc/ykk/yutanpo.html). Kokage has an interesting sense of humor.
