[[Image: LittlePrettyKittyvsCurlyKitten1.jpg|thumb|CurlyKitten PinkyPaws vs. Little Pretty Mimi]]

Little Pretty Kitties are very similar to the CurlyKittens from the Lady LovelyLocks toyline (trademarked by Those Characters From Cleveland & sold through Mattel) and it has been rumored that they share the same figure molds. 

When closely examined it becomes clear that they do not share the same molds but it is likely that Curly Kittens functioned as a heavy influence - Mattel designers may have taken the existing Curly Kittens concept and improved upon the entire design. 

Unlike Little Pretty Kitties, CurlyKittens came in only two poses - Sitting and Lying Down - and neither match Little Pretty Kitty poses.
