Errr, I think you're right, it was a feature film rather than a cartoon. I guess I implied a series and you're right, it wasn't. But, with any film that I totally adore, I will watch it excessively. I'm trying to wrack my brain to remember the details now. I recall they lived in the country, the children (as I recall there was only a daddy?) wandered off into the woods and found the interesting creature in your snapshot. The cat had something to do with a train. And, somewhere in there, they chased dust-bunnies, which, also were alive. That's about all I've got. It was in Japanese, so I never caught all of the dialogue.
^ Awesome!!! He used to live in my "Hood"..although I never met him. He has a fantastic installation at the Naples Philharmonic..(my old hood). I much prefer the spikes and tentacles than the plates. I do love the Bellagio in Vegas though.

I went the next day to view it in the daylight--and presuming that it would be maybe half as beautiful. I was amazed at how differently lush it was in the sunlight. The lavender and red reeds, in particular, gushed thick, velvety color. This exhibit ended the day I left Scottsdale. I'd happened upon an advertisement by chance a week earlier, after which I immediately booked a room in town for the weekend. Fate or chance?
I've also seen his permanent installations in St Louis. Have you seen the documentary on his studio?
I'm eager to see the ceiling at the Bellagio. It's likely the only reason I'd visit Las Vegas.
