NEKO Pride, April 26 2017

Whether you're two years old, or 20 years old, sometimes we need to just relax with a good old fashioned children's movie. Believe it or not, there's a whole list of movies about cats on Wikipedia. Here are some of our favorites.

ARISTOCATS

Follow Duchess and her three kittens who have been living the lavish life, as they are stolen from their home in the night and made to find their way back on their own... if they can. Along the way they make friends with Thomas "O'Malley the Alleycat" O'Malley,a streetwise tomcat who takes a liking to the family. Made in 1970, the film itself is older than most of our audience, yet we can probably all still remember watching it as kids. 

OLIVER AND COMPANY

Lost and alone, Oliver has no choice but to make it however he can. After teaming up with a gang of dogs, Oliver finds himself a part of a loving family of misfits proving it's not always what material things people can give you, but the love they can give you instead. 

PUSS AND BOOTS

Originally known for his big eyes and charming wits in the Shrek films by Dreamworks, Puss finally gets his own movie in Puss in Boots. Follow Puss on his rip-roaring adventures that include animated escape plans, comical brawls and a feline love interest.
