i'm thinking cats need to be a central or major focus to be considered

Votes

Aria the Animation
Cat Returns, The
Kiki's Delivery Service
Crest of the Stars
Someday's Dreamers

Honorable Mentions

Whisper of the Heart
The cat was innocent enough, but seemed almost tangential to the actual story

All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku
Nuku Nuku was innocent enough, but the quality of the plot tapered off as the series progressed...

Piano
Had an actual cat, but the cat wasn't as memorable

My Neighbor Totoro
Perhaps the only "cat" that doubles as a transport

Ranma 1/2
Girl <=> cat shapeshifter...

Angel Tales
Fruits Basket
don't really recall the series or characters, but there were a "cat" in each

Gunsmith Cats
I remember the plot, but don't recall if any characters were "cats" or "cat-esque" but it's in the title

Anti-Votes

Kanon
Kanon (2006)
The cat was innocent enough, but the series (and the remake) tanked

Windy Tales
The series tanked, including the cats

Comments

I never realized I've watched so many anime with a cat in them! And to think there's likely more I've overlooked or forgotten...

Waiter, I'll take the Cat Soup as well... does that come with a salad? :p

I can't think of any I've seen that has cats at the main focus. Although eQko_x's Trigun suggestion was funny :p I love that cat...

Cat Soup
Nuku Nuku OVA
Loveless
Whisper of the Heart
Fruits Basket

Cat Soup - definitely

Nuku Nuku OVA -The plot tanked, but episode 5 with the catnip? That was the reason I bought the DVD. I thought it was some great comedy.

Loveless - So the main character [and many others] have the ears, and it just says cats/catgirls but why can't catboys count too?

Whisper of the Heart - The whole character arc for the main character was developing the Baron's story, so he was pretty important even if he only had a little bit of screentime

Fruits Basket - Kyo ftw

Answers subject to change.

Some cat soup, please, with sufficient broccoli.

P.S. Do CATS count?
