As she's coming home from school, 17 year old Haro performs a good deed when she saves a passing cat from being run over. But little did she know that in doing so she was saving none other than Lune, royal prince of the entire Cat Kingdom - and that as a result, Lune's father the king has decided she should marry his son! This charming and more-than-slightly-surreal feline adventure comes from Studio Ghibli, the Japanese animation company that made the likes of Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle - and The Cat Returns is every bit as original and imaginative as those marvellous fantasies. (Originally made in Japanese, this film has been dubbed into English)

    The cat returns is certainly different to most films I have seen but it wasn't the best.It is about a girl called Haru who has an unusual ability of talking to cats, she saves a cat who you later find out is the cat prince.The cats then try to repay her with cat based treats which eventually ends up in a marriage proposal the cats take had reply as a yes.This film isn't bad but isn't good at the same time it is kind of a sequel to another anime called whisper of the heart which the baron in.My favourite character his Muta the fat cat because he is funny.I wouldn't recommend this film because it was a bit long-winded.

    I really liked this film because I love cats, I love manga/anime and I love comedies. It was funny and very imaginative. If this was real...it would be pretty awesome!!

    This was a good film but not great. I enjoyed watching it but not a film I would watch again and again like ice age.
