With a Dog AND a Cat, Every Day Is Fun: Book Review

With a Dog AND a Cat, Every Day Is Fun is an anecdotal manga written and drawn by Hidekichi Matsumoto, following the everyday antics of the mangaka’s dog and cat, and sometimes lizard.

Inu is a fun-loving little dog with a heart of gold and a giant personality. Neko is a grumpy cat who’s a softie at heart. And between them, they keep Matsumoto very busy and very entertained.

This manga is relatable, humorous, and adorable, with a unique style that sets it apart from most manga, and includes photographs of Matsumoto’s real-life dog and cat in each volume, so you can see the faces behind the antics.

As of now, there are eight volumes available in English, with a ninth promised by Matsumoto, so it’s also not a long manga to get into. It’s great for busy pet owners who just want something cute and funny to relax to.

Approved by my cartoonist, Sunny, and myself.

I give this manga two paws up! Try it if you get the chance!
