Neko Atsume, for those that don't know, is a Japanese mobile game where you collect cats of all colors and stripes.

Earlier this month we got a trailer for the movie based on the game, as spotted by io9.

By setting up cute toys, cushions and delicious treats, new felines will wander into your virtual abodes and show up in your roster of cats that have visited you. Some require special toys to lure them out, others will selfishly eat all of your food. We're hoping they all make appearances in the Japanese film.

Everything about this, if you haven't already noted it, is wonderful.
