Guide Review
Good Rainy Day Film
Although the cat was a minor character in this film, she obviously had a pretty soft life with Dr. Abby Barnes (Garofalo). This flick is a classic romantic farce with a twist on the old plot: girl meets boy, girl casts boy away, girl wants boy back... well, I'm not going to give away the ending, but you see the drift. Some of the funniest episodes occurred with the dog, especially the one on roller skates. This lightweight comedy makes for some pretty entertaining viewing. I'd watch it again, on another rainy day.
