** Though the story is based in Japan and the characters are Japanese, to an extent, considering the story mostly takes place in the Cat Kingdom and Haru and Hiromi are the only humans featured in the main plot, characters constantly make a lot of American pop culture references. For instance, Muta makes several comments regarding the widely lambasted movie, ''{{Film/Gigli}}'', Toto opting out of visiting the Cat Kingdom because he'll be "Toto [[UsefulNotes/McDonalds McNuggets]] before [he sets] foot on the ground", Nemo's erratic behavior has Haru thinking he's one step away from muttering [[Film/LordOfTheRings "My precious"]], among other things.
** A brief gag with Natoru's license has it bearing his name in English as well as a MysteriousMiddleInitial. Justified, since it's not like feline naming conventions have to follow Japanese/real-life ones.



* MysteriousMiddleInitial: Parodied. Natoru shows Hiromi his license bearing the words "Natoru T. Cat, licensed toady". When Hiromi asks what the "T." stands for, Natoru answers with "The", making his full-name Natoru the Cat. Why the license is written in [[WeAllLiveInAmerica English]] is left unsaid.
