The program in question is neko, originally written by Masayuki Koba.
xneko can be ftp'ed from:
	uunet.uu.net [192.48.96.2]
		in X/contrib/xneko.tar.Z
	export.lcs.mit.edu [18.30.0.238]
		in contrib/xneko.tar.Z
This version creates a separate window for the cat to run about in.

Tatsuya Kato has modified xneko to make the cat run around in the
root window.  This version is available at
	export.lcs.mit.edu
		in contrib/oneko.tar.Z
You'll need a server which supports the Shape extension.
