I got the zodiacs when they first came out. Called them after the characters of Fruits Basket. :}

Remake? Of the Knuffel or of Furuba?

I've heard of Fruits Basket, I think... but I'm not up to reading it in the original language; is the translation any good? I know it's mostly about art, and that doesn't need translating, but stories make a difference, too.

If it's getting a remake it must have done well the first time around.... nice.
(This IS the series with the house where all these kids are sort of avatars of the zodiac animals, and there's a curse, right?)

Zodiac Knuffel..? Wild knuffel I suppose? Sorry, I am kind of confused. I remember that there was the "normal" Zodiac Sign sets, I got Virgo (because that's mine), but I did not fancy that one that much either.

Fruit basket is indeed about the cursed Sohma(?) family. Every generations they have member s born that upon being touched or held by a person of the opposite gender they turn into an animal of the zodiac. So thirteen cursed people (the twelve zodiacs and the cat from the legend).
The remake will follow the manga more correctly and has the same or similar ending. Or at least that is what I heard. :}

It's kind of nice to be recommended to a series that is complete. I don't ever have to worry about an author dying partway through or abandoning the project or legal issues coming up that mean publishers fight over rights and no one gets to read the end, or something else like that.
And also you don't have to wait for the next thing to come out, you can just get all of them at once and read straight through.
Or watch straight through, depending.
