      Yes...our pets are a part of our lives and hearts that many people whom do not own pets will not understand. Our pets fill a void in most people's lives that no humans can ever fill...and when that is gone, something just goes...missing--forever.

She had been with me through thick and thin, and was there for me when nobody else was. We would sometimes watch AVGN videos together. She will be forever in my heart. RIP Kissa, and RIP Boo. I hope that they never run out of mice, birds and fish in the lands of eternal hunt where they are now.

Some of the mechanics such as the bowl (which was originally on a separate screen on DS) and the litter box didn't translate to Wii quite as well. You forgot to mention that one of the litters you could buy in the game shop is called Buried Treasure! Thanks for this hilarious video @AVGN!

    Hey James,
    I can tell you've been studying those early Nerd epsiodes. When I went back to watch them to figure out what made them so funny, the physical gags were the moments that held up the best after over a decade of maturation and rewatches. This episode made me laugh multiple times, and the physical gags were what usually did it. Glad to see you rediscover and reinterpret the best of the old while making something new.
