At long last, a unique item comes out of the virtual pet fray... Pocket Love, released by Sanrio in a white, cloudy yellow or pink Hello Kitty shape (a couple of other versions exist).

In this version, two cats, Dora-chan and Mike-chan are having a virtual relationship. It is up to you to make the relationship reach it's "Love Love Happy End". In this game, you select the blood type and astrological sign of the two cats and set about making them happy in their relationship.

Bad Events Of course, not all goes well sometimes. In fact, things can get pretty gruesome. The two can get mad at each other, or she can catch him looking at a nice piece of erm... tail. Or he gets sick (or she shoots him in a fit of rage, take your pick... see the 3rd photo down to see what I mean). Or the male cat goes off singing on the back fence leaving her alone for the evening. Any of these things can strain a budding relationship between two red-blooded cats.

Fix their problems by meddling in their affairs and the two hold hands and dance. If you are totally successful, and the "Love Love Meter" reaches 100%, the game ends with the two cats against a heart backdrop. But if the meter drops to 0%, the game ends with the two having irreconcilable differences.
