有關 Hello Kitty的 5 個你必須知道的事情：
1) 她不是貓！她是一個住在英國的小女生，名字叫 Kitty White。再說一次，她。不。是。貓。喔！
2) Kitty 有一個雙胞胎姐妹叫 Mimmy，她們是十一月一日出生。Kitty 的蝴蝶結繫在左耳，Mimmy 的繫在右耳。她們的父母叫 George 和 Mary，祖父母叫 Anthony 和 Margaret。 他們一家住在倫敦郊外一棟兩層樓的房子。
3) Kitty 永遠都是三年級的學生，所以即使人家已經問市40年，千萬別搞錯，不是慶祝 40歲生日喔。人家長生不老，就是三年級學生。記得喔！
4) 她的身高是 5 個蘋果高度，體重是 3 個蘋果重量，血型是 A 型。她喜歡旅行，最愛媽媽烤的蘋果派。她的座右銘是「朋友不嫌多」。
5) 她沒有嘴巴，並不表示她軟弱無能，而是很多東西並不是光靠嘴去說，而要用心去體會。
As Hello Kitty always says, "You can never have too many friends!" Maybe that's why Hello KItty Con has so many fans
