More Chi! Squee!

Chi’s Sweet Home: Volume 2 by Kanata Konami (Vertical, 2010)

The second volume of Chi's Sweet Home is just as sweet, adorable, and squeetastic as the first! The story continues from the first volume -- Chi’s human family continues to cope with the stress of having a rambunctious contraband kitten in the house, Chi gets into mischief exploring her new home, and many squees ensue. The cat-human interactions are adorable and will be perfectly familiar to any cat owner.

Some of my favorite scenes were right at the beginning when Chi discovers new foods. Cabbage is horrible, but pancakes are the bomb. The part where Chi steals Youhei's pancake and, his mother, out of sight in another room, hears the ruckus and tells her son to share? Oh, so cute. And so true. I don't think I've ever introduced my cats to a human food they then didn't take to as if it were crack. (I know, don't feed your cats human food &etc).

Yes, I've used the word "adorable" five times. You're now thoroughly turned off by the cuteness factor and wouldn't touch Chi's Sweet Home with a ten-foot pole. I can't just help it! C'est tres adorable!
