Both are cute, family friendly shorts.  They both have a similar vibe and similar animation styles (despite being made by different studios).  They will likely appeal to the same audience.

Both Mei to Koneko Bus and Paulette no Isu feature children going on a short, fantasy-like adventure. They're very cute, very short, and a good watch.
