Hello Kitty

Hey Hello Kitty lovers, I'm here just to let you know more about Hello Kitty (cause I like it too, cause its so cute!) And yeah, as usual I'll put some pictures and everything here. Enjoy!

Who doesn't know about Hello Kitty? But do you know Hello Kitty's real name is Kitty White? Dear Kitty was created by Yuko Shimizu, and produced by Sanrio, a Japanese company. Portrayed as a female white Japanese bobtail cat with a red bow, HK was introduced in Japan, in 1975 and brought to USA in 1976.

Defined in Sanrio's official website, Hello Kitty was born on November 1st (not mentioned the year), living in London, England, with her parents and Mimi, her twin sister.

Hello Kitty's hobbies are: traveling, music, reading, eating cookies made by her sister, Mimi, and making friends! HK's famous saying is "You can never have too many friends!" So, here's HK's friends!

Her fame as a recurring Sanrio character has led to the creation of two officially licensed Hello Kitty theme parks, Harmonyland and the indoor Sanrio Puroland. And yeah, you can see many Hello Kitty everywhere, on clothes, bags, key chains, shoes, simply everything has their HK version!
