Much ado after Sanrio lets Kitty out of bag
Media reports that Sanrio Co.’s popular character Hello Kitty is “not a cat” have swirled across the globe, following a U.S. newspaper story.
The Los Angeles Times published an article online Tuesday saying the Japanese character goods maker insists Hello Kitty is not a cat but a girl. On its official Web site, Sanrio says Hello Kitty is a cheerful, kind girl as tall as “five apples” and as heavy as “three apples.” The report by the leading U.S. daily has created chaos on the Internet, with many fans in the world complaining that Hello Kitty should not be a human girl because “she has whiskers and a cat nose.”
