Kristen Wiig gets her cat lady on in a likable wisp of a kiddie flick that’s all about the cool confectionary design.

Based off of the television show, this live-action/animation hybrid revolves around the titular character, played by Laila Lockhart Kraner. Gabby possesses a special dollhouse, made for her by her loving grandmother Gigi (Gloria Estefan), inside of which are a collection of miniature cats who come to life. Gabby has the power to also miniaturise herself at will, by pinching her ears.

The story is set in motion when Gabby joins her grandmother in her van on a road trip to “Cat Francisco”. Unfortunately, her beloved dollhouse accidentally winds up careening down the street and falling into the hands of Vera (Wiig). She’s forever accompanied by her pet feline Marlena, who’s dressed identically to her. She’s apparently also a successful businesswoman, having invented “Pretty Glitter Kitty Litter,” which is exactly what it sounds like.

The candy-coloured film bounces off the idea that playthings will feel abandoned when their child owners grow up; it’s like Toy Story meets Trolls.
