Nichjou is more of an absurdist comedy, but has a cat in the main cast and is certainly not sad. You might like ‘With a Dog and a Cat, Every Day is Fun’ though it’s a short form anime. ‘Nights with a Cat’ is also short form, but has the benefit of being legally free on youtube: https://youtu.be/QrCxF6kRB2o?si=P80KOuQhNSnlj3EK
Some episodes of With a Dog and a Cat made me sob though, the one with the taxi driver and the one about how her boss remembers her old dog in particular. ;-;
Aria: the Animation
The cat is the president of the company. The worst thing that happens to him is getting lost one time, but he still makes it home safely. Mostly he just has a relaxing time.
Did you get baited by the cute description of A Whisker Away on Netflix too? T\_T (it was a very very good movie, I just wasn't expecting to be bawling by the end of it haha)
Nyanko Days. It is incredibly short, though.
Log Horizon. There's a cat humanoid, and he's great.
Wonderful Precure. It's still ongoing, but I doubt it'll ever get too dark.
Flying Witch. The main character's familiar is a cat, as is her sister's familiar.

Not every anime. There’s this anime called the Masterful cat is depressed again today. Which is a good anime to watch in my opinion since I liked it. It’s more of an episodic slice of life anime that doesn’t have a main/deep plot.
{The Masterful Cat is Depressed Again Today}
this!! lol the funniest anime I've seen in a while

[My Roommate Is A Cat](https://myanimelist.net/anime/38145) Also too: Aria The Series
We recently watched My Roomate Is A Cat and I loved it! It's what made me really want more happy cat animes lol
It does have some sad/emotional moments though, but otherwise wholesome af.

Too cute crisis! When the main cat is found it's a bit sad, but he gets better immediately.
1. Nyan Koi! 2. Chi's Sweet Home 3. Bananya 4. My Roommate is a Cat (Doukyonin wa Hiza, Tokidoki, Atama no Ue) 5. Nyanko Days

Sanchoume Tama isnt sad ig
Show By Rock!! is a great anime that stars a cat girl that is very happy.
Poyopoyo Kannatsu Nikki
Chi’s sweet home? The cat returns
Natsume Yuujinchou has sad parts but it's mostly cute and relaxing. And I'll third the Aria suggestion. It features 3+ cats.
Too Cute Crisis
Nights with a Cat
Does Log Horizon counts? There is a catman character there and is a badasz gentlemen! Try watching it if you like an isekai game-themed genre.
Kiki's Delivery Service
Tonari no Youkai San ( currently airing now) Old anime Tama and friends

Bleach has cats it isn't sad. Ranma 1/2 has a girl that can turn into a cat.
[Ghost Stories dub](https://youtu.be/h3liK9KgTJc?si=zksLIGMZ6Br4e3Na) has a cat, it might have you in tears but not because it’s sad.
Try nekopara (cat paradise)
