Or, for those that like to have the "real" title... Mahou Shoujo Ririkaru Nanoha.

Yuuno Scraia is a mage from a distant planet working to fix the problem he started when Jewel Seeds were accidentally spread around the world. In a failed attempt to seal a seed properly, he winds up on Earth in the form of a ferret. However, his battle with the seeds did not end upon reaching the Earth and he needs somebody else's help to seal the seeds for him. Takamachi Nanoha hears his telepathic cries for help and comes to his rescue. When she is given a pearl known as the Raging Heart she is able to transform into Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha and weild a staff to fend off the evil that lies within the Seeds. In order to help Yuuno complete his mission, she needs to seal all 21 Jewel Seeds away.
By the way, guess who wrote this? Oh, that's right! I did! Unfortunately, I wrote it after seeing three episodes. It changes at episode four...
Anyway, I had the pleasure of seeing this overly-cliched and yet still-awesome anime about 3 weeks ago thanks to Kefit (of course). It's only 13 episodes long, but there's SUPPOSEDLY a sequel coming out sometime in the future. They left it open for one, so it would work if they wanted to put one in.
The show is pretty good, even though they had to cram it all in 13 episodes' worth of content. It gets much much better once you meet some other characters in episode 4 and on.
HOWEVER. The best part of this show is OBVIOUSLY the intro theme to it. I can't get enough of "Innocent Starter".
