One of the reasons I love cats in manga so much is that manga doesn't glorify cats. Yes, it does show them an inordinate amount of love. But the love is attached not to cats' mysterious, supposedly worshipable natures but to how freakin' weird they are--
And how weird we are to put up with them.
Man and His Cat--an alluring series which has turned into a community/family/talent manga--showcases the two elements of cat ownership. I love the cat who is sleeping on the bed and then leaves but the human remains contorted into a weird position: I've done this!
