Neko is Japanese for cat. According to Wikipedia it was originally written for the NEC PC-9801. I know it from the OS/2 program of the same name.

Little Anime People Who Steal Your Images
We decided to conduct a small experiment and resurrect a very ancient evil right from the year 2000 - screenmates. These are dragons running on your screen, which just lift your spirits. The idea was given by the beautiful.
The little kitten Neko chases the mouse cursor around the desktop. Once she’s over it and the mouse doesn’t move she’ll prepare to take a nap. If the mouse goes outside the desktop she will reach the border and try to dig for it. She’ll eventually give up, and fall asleep.
Many free and open source ports of Neko exist. I have adapted the Java Applet “Java Neko” by Chris Parent for the Desktop.
The cat is displayed on a JWindow which I have made transparent using the following command:
AWTUtilities.setWindowOpaque(window, false);
Since Neko is supposed to chase the cursor, we need to poll the mouse location in regular intervals using a Swing Timer. I query the location using a call to the MouseInfo class:PointerInfo pointerInfo = MouseInfo.getPointerInfo()
Point mouseLocation = pointerInfo.getLocation();
We don’t want Neko to go outside of the Desktop area. I determine the bounds and insets of the desktop using the following code snippet:GraphicsConfiguration gc = getGraphicsConfiguration();
Rectangle screenBounds = gc.getBounds();
Insets screenInsets = getToolkit().getScreenInsets(gc);
The rest of the code is pretty much identical with Chris’ Java applet.
