I hoped to see … Gabby goes to the Mercat cruise ship, then goes underwater and be sirens.
The film speaks … Make up your old friends, see all these new people and try to make friends.
My favorite game … When Gabby had the sparks in her hands and she threw them to save them.
My favorite character … Mercat. Because someone [Vera] I took it and put it in this fresh oceanic area, the more it sang, the more cool and magical animals came.
My favorite outfit … The outfit that Kitty Fairy carried.
My least favorite part … When [Chumsley] Put too much magic [in the soup] And the doll’s house went crazy, and everyone was sucked.
My question for Gabby’s sister… They never told us that Gabby had a sister, Never! I think she is the same age as Gabby when she had her doll house. What do you look like?

The film speaks …. Gabby’s doll house went to roll on the hill and the bad guy who likes cats took it. Gabby needed the help of his grandmother, Gigi. She has her own cat ears. They both become tiny. When Vera obtained Gigi’s ears, she also became tiny. His friend had a difficult name to remember [Chumsley, voiced by Jason Mantzoukas]. He reminded me [the bear from Toy Story 2]. Chumsley did not want to be back in this drawer, so chumsley was about to not like Vera, but in the end, it was happy forever and she loved her and decided not to put Chumsley in the drawer. Vera wanted to play, even if she is an adult.
My least favorite part … The girl [Vera] was frightening at first. But I liked his song. I don’t even know what she said, she was too funny! And I loved everything else.
My favorite game … I loved Gabby’s outfits. I liked the queen outfit [with Kitty Fairy]Mermaid and regular Gabby’s outfit.
My favorite character … Cakey, because she has glitter. I liked the room when she couldn’t cry glitter!
My question for Gabby … Can I see your sister’s room?

I hoped to see … Gabby, Baby Box, Cakey and Pandy Paws roll on a ferris wheel. And take a ferry to the amusement park.
The film speaks … Someone drives the doll house then Gabby and Pandy, when they arrived, Catrat loses them. The doll’s house went on the street and Gabby was trying to get it, then a nasty, a cat [Vera].
My favorite game … The siren part. Because Gabby had painting on his face and a beautiful tail.
My favorite character … Chatter. She wore my favorite color, pink. My favorite outfit was her mermaid outfit. She also had different hair. I love the song [“Kaleidoscope”]. I love Gabby.

My question for Gabby … What is your favorite snack and do you like jewelry?
