Catbus (‘Nekobasu’ in Japanese)
is a mysterious huge wild-cat shape creature appearing in Totoro,
which is Japanese film director, Miyasaki Hayao’s representative anime!★
The scene,
where the fluffy catbus with Satsuki and Mei runs through fields and forests,
looks so awesome!♪
Let’s fold the catbus (Nekobasu) which is just as popular as Totoro!♥
