So THR went straight to the core audience of Ryan Crego's 98-minute cat-adventure, starring Laila Lockhart Kraner as Gabby (along with Gloria Estefan as her grandma, Gigi, and Kristen Wiig as eccentric cat lady Vera), to ask Gabby's biggest fans what they had to say about the interactive road trip to "Cat Francisco" - and what magical lessons they picked up along the way. Lily, 7 Logo text I WAS HOPING TO SEE... I couldn't wait to see the dollhouse go wild on the street. I saw that in the trailer. THE MOVIE IS ABOUT... When you get older, you can still play with your old toys. MY FAVORITE PART... When MerCat sang her song ["Kaleidoscope"], because everything got so glimmery! MY QUESTION FOR GABBY... How did the magic get inside the cat ears? Savannah, 6 Image Credit: DreamWorks Animation Logo text I WAS HOPING TO SEE... Gabby go to MerCat's cruise ship and then go underwater and be mermaids. THE MOVIE IS ABOUT... Missing your old friends, seeing all these new people and trying to make friends. MY FAVORITE PART... When Gabby had the sparkles in her hands and she threw them out to save them. MY FAVORITE CHARACTER... MerCat. Because someone [Vera] took her and put her in this cool ocean area, and the more she sang the more really cool and magical animals came. MY FAVORITE OUTFIT... The outfit that Kitty Fairy was wearing. MY LEAST FAVORITE PART... When [Chumsley] put too much magic [in the soup] and the dollhouse went crazy, and everybody was getting sucked in. MY QUESTION FOR GABBY'S SISTER... They never told us that Gabby had a sister, ever! I think she is the same age as Gabby was when she got her dollhouse. What do you look like? Ryann, 6 Logo text I WAS HOPING TO SEE... The Gabby ferris wheel, and the Gabby stuffy when you win a prize. MY FAVORITE CHARACTER... Cakey, Gabby, Pandy, DJ Catnip and Pillow Cat - and MerCat and CatRat and everyone. MY FAVORITE PART... When Pandy "hug attacks" Gabby. MY FAVORITE OUTFIT... The mermaid outfit. I really liked every outfit. I LAUGHED WHEN... The banana man played with the kids [before the dollhouse rolled away]. And when Vera sang her song! Meadow, 5 Image Credit: DreamWorks Animation Logo text THE MOVIE IS ABOUT.... Gabby's dollhouse went rolling down the hill and the bad guy who loves cats took it. Gabby needed the help of her Grandma, Gigi. She has her own cat ears. They both get tiny. When Vera got Gigi's ears, she also got tiny. Her friend had a hard name to remember [Chumsley, voiced by Jason Mantzoukas]. He reminded me of Lotso [the bear from Toy Story 2]. Chumsley didn't want to be back in that drawer, so Chumsley was about to not like Vera, but in the end it was happily ever after and she liked him and decided not to put Chumsley in the drawer. Vera wanted to play, even though she's a grown up. MY LEAST FAVORITE PART... The girl [Vera] was scary in the beginning. But I did like her song. I don't even know what she was saying, she was too funny! And I loved everything else. MY FAVORITE PART... I loved Gabby's outfits. I liked the queen outfit [with Kitty Fairy], the mermaid outfit and Gabby's regular outfit. MY FAVORITE CHARACTER... Cakey, because she has sprinkles. I liked the part when she couldn't cry sprinkles! MY QUESTION FOR GABBY... Can I see your sister's room? Liv, 5 Logo text I WAS HOPING TO SEE... Gabby, Baby Box, Cakey and Pandy Paws ride on a ferris wheel. And take a ferry to the amusement park. THE MOVIE IS ABOUT... Somebody drives the dollhouse and then Gabby and Pandy, when they got there, CatRat loses them. The dollhouse was going down the street and Gabby was trying to get it, and then a bad guy comes out, some cat person [Vera]. MY FAVORITE PART... The mermaid part. Because Gabby had paint on her face and a beautiful tail. MY FAVORITE CHARACTER... Gabby. She was wearing my favorite color, pink. My favorite outfit was her mermaid outfit. She also had different hair. I love the song ["Kaleidoscope"]. I just love Gabby. MY LEAST FAVORITE PART... The bad guy [Vera], because she was mean to Gabby. MY QUESTION FOR GABBY... What is your favorite snack, and do you like jewelry? MY QUESTION FOR GABBY'S SISTER... Do you have curly hair? Eden, 5 Logo text THE MOVIE IS ABOUT... Gabby's dollhouse rolled away and Gabby had to run after it and find the dollhouse. MY FAVORITE PART... I liked when Vera said she had to shower in a high-pitch singing voice (laughs). I am still laughing about it! MY FAVORITE CHARACTER... Kitty Fairy because she has a flower tail and is magical. MY QUESTION FOR GABBY... I like cats, too! Can I go on an
