Our long linguistiblogosphere nightmare is over. Having recovered from a couple of weeks of technical difficulties, Language Hat is back in business. Go, visit, read!
[A No-Prize to whoever identifies the reference in the title of this post first, BTW.]
Sadly, 猫の恩返し does not seem to lend itself as well to hat puns, at least not with my pseudo-knowledge of Japanese. And Japanese is all about the puns.

OK, I give up. What is the reference in the title? (And thanks for the welcome-back!)

"The Cat Returns" is the English language title of the Studio Ghibli movie refered to in the first comment. If I hadn't been such a smart-ass I might have gotten my No-Prize by now. :(
