Destination: Tama City, Japan

If you've ever dreamt about meeting our favorite pink Kitty who makes us feel so warm, sweet and girlie and inspires us to anxiously await the next product - you are at the right place.

And no, I'm not talking about Sexy Siren, Ms. Kitty Baby (pictured above). The elegant enchantress and burlesque beauty certainly has a lot to make a lady feel inspired-- she is a U.S. Marine who works on fuel barges as a tankerman in Seattle, WA (meow!). She dances and poses pretty for Pinup photos and travels around the country impressing audiences with her moves and a cool band (The Aquasonics). Her tattoos include sweet sparrows, patriotic emblems and hearts (check her out www.myspace.com/misskittybaby ).

But this time, the pink Kitty we're referring to-- is none other than Japanese sensation, Kitty, (Hello Kitty's sister, see her on the tea cup right above). For those of you who love this not-so-furry feline and own stickers and pens and jewelry and charms with her face and feel like you simply can't get enough, it's time to travel to her house, in Tama City, Japan (about 30 minutes outside of Tokyo). My lover boy went there about ten years ago (Maybe that's why I always feel like a lynx when I'm with him -- ooooh). And he says it's the most exorbitant and lavishly ellaborated presentation of Kitty one could ever imagine.

In case you didn't know, Kitty's house is located in Puroland. It's Sanrio's version of Disneyland, except Puroland is much, much sweeter (and pink). There's a Cinnamon Dream Cafe, a sweet parlor, numerous restaurants, many thrill rides, a fairyland theater, boat rides lots of shops and of course, Kitty's house! Oh yeah -- and the end-of-night, goodbye show for all the guests.

There's a main street parade, a dinner show (see above) and Vivitix - a specialty boutique "for students and ladies" that sells limited edition Kitty items, like wine bottle stoppers and lacy nightgowns-- all with Kitty's face (visit the park's website: http://www.puroland.co.jp/ )

Tickets are 3,000 yen or about $25.00. Not too shabby.

But if flying to Japan is out of your budget at this time, you can always visit: http://www.hellokittyjunkie.com/ and get your daily dose of Kitty Goods.
