Personal review

Koneko Monogatari is based on the movie "The Adventures of Chatran" (also known as "The Adventures of Milo and Otis" in the US). It is an average, slow-paced platform game with cute graphics aimed at children. Collect fruits for points and avoid all hostile animals - though not always hostile looking, and dying by being hit by a rain drop is also rather uncommon I think. The game consists of 24 stages, each stage representing one month of a year with a day and night stage each. As I mentioned the game's pace is kinda slow and unexciting, but not unplayable. Worst part is the music, which is really annoying in both the day and night stages.
