◆About FELIX THE CAT
Felix the Cat, the world’s most famous black cat, made his debut in 1919 as the star of a silent film and became a cultural sensation in Japan during the 1980s. Kids were enchanted by his yellow magic bag that could change shape at will, and his popularity quickly spread through comics, animation, and various merchandise. True to his name, which is derived from "felicitous," Felix—“the cat that brings happiness”—is known for his resilient, never-give-up spirit and his genuine kindness to those around him. Now celebrating his 105th anniversary in 2024, Felix continues to captivate audiences around the world.
