It just tried xneko from pkgsrc and it didn't build under Linux. I tried
oneko from pkgsrc and it built fine. It didn't automatically include the
library rpath though, but "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib oneko" worked
for me.

I now have a sleeping cat on my screen.

I am using oneko-1.1b from

plus oneko-1.2.diff.gz from http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA004959/oneko/

(also see http://www.bsddiary.net/oneko/)

It built for me using imake.

I will put this on my sons' computer too.

Joseph, thanks for your posting. I am glad that others have their children
using open source too :)
