In August 2008, a six-episode television drama series based on the manga began airing on NHK.

Also in 2008, Cat Street was developed into two light novels written by Kanae Shimokawa.

The story follows Keito, a former child star who was left traumatized after the betrayal of a friend. She finds a free school called El Liston, where she befriends Koichi, Momiji Noda, and Rei Saeki. Keito gradually begins to reenter the real world. She and her friends "graduate" from El Liston one-by-one as they find their passions.

• While writing about Cat Street, Kamio called the series "serious" in comparison to Boys Over Flowers.
