[edit] History
[edit] 2007
Near the end of 2007, the owner of the 5 cats decided to post a video up on YouTube as part of the Christmas celebration, and made the cats sing along with the "Jingle Bells" song. This became a popular video, not only to the Japanese, but to all the cat lovers all over the world.
The owner decided to split each cat to do different parts. When the cats don't feel like singing, the owner gives them food allowing them back to feeling better. The YouTube video was viewed more than 1,200,000 by the end of 2007. YouTube nominated as the best video of the 2007.
