'''Kitty''' was a Japanese media conglomerate with companies and ventures in film, television and music, founded in 1972 as the Kitty Music Corporation by former Polydor Japan producer Hidenori Taga. Kitty was known for producing a number of works such as the works of Rumiko Takahashi (''Urusei Yatsura'', ''Ranma ½'' and ''Maison Ikoku''), a number of live-action films and also becoming one of Japan's independent record labels. Following a series of major financial difficulties during the early 90s, culminating with a scandal regarding Hidenori Taga, PolyGram purchased Kitty Enterprises in 1995 and its non-music library (including their television shows) were later sold off to other companies while the remnants of the Kitty name currently remain with Kitty Corporation, a talent agency.
