I first saw this in 2004 and have been waiting for the DVD ever since. I won't recap Matthew's review because it is complete. I will say I am glad this movie finally made it to DVD. I will be buying a copy. It is a family story with the highlight on animals and human courage and belief.

5/5 Ghost Cat is a Treat for the Whole Family!
  by Matthew DeLuca (Tulsa, OK)
This movie, "Ghost Cat" was very well done. It was featured on Animal Planet near Halloween time, a couple of years ago.
I have been asking the studio to release it on DVD ever since.

Ghost Cat stars a young Ellen Page, who already had quite the screen presence in this movie, before she hit it big in future movies.

It is the story about a young girl (Page) who's Mom dies, and the girl and her Dad move to a new house in the town where her deceased Mom had grown up.

While looking for a new house the Father and daughter see a charming house for sale. The house is owned by Mrs Ashboro, who lives there with her cat, Margaret. Mrs Ashboro points out that she doesnt want to sell the house, that her overzealous nephew, put the "For Sale" sign out without her permission.

We later learn that the Nephew has an ulterior motive for wanting the house sold..namely the money that he would get from the sale.

Mrs Ashboro is surprised when she sees the young girl (Page) petting her cat, Margaret, because Margaret isnt used to alot of visitors and doesnt do well with alot of folks.

To make a long story short, Mrs Ashboro dies, and her cat Margaret dies shortly after...obviously of a broken heart.

That's where the fun begins......Margaret, the caring soul that she is, comes back in spirit and helps the young girl and her friends to keep the house out of the hands of the greedy Nephew.

Margaret saves the day, as cats so often do in movies and in real life.

This is a charming movie that you will want to watch over and over again with your family members (two legged AND four legged).

It is spooky, but not scary like a horror movie.

It has just the right balance of fun, happiness, spookiness, and joy.

I will be buying the DVD.

I hope that you will too....it makes a great movie to watch every Halloween season with your family.
