I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.
When I saw this one pop up on Netgalley it was an instant click to request! I have heard tons about this series + I also love the other works by Kanata Konami (Chiiiiiiiii), so I just had to read this one~
In this one we meet an old cat named Sue and a young cat named Tai. Sue’s owner was “forced” to take upon a new kitty and well, what will the older cat think of it? It sounded adorable as heck, and I just loved their first meeting. Sue very much unsure about the little ball of fuzz suddenly making his way into her quiet life, but she is also curious and interested which I quite loved. Though if only Sue knew what the kitty would really mean, haha but she finds that out immediately in the first chapter! Sue just wants to sleep, but Tai is a tiny kitten and wants to PLAY! Energy levels over 9000! I just felt for poor Sue and was happy that the owner decided to pick up Tai so Sue could have some rest, good job!
And the following chapters are Sue realising that this tiny little kitten isn’t leaving any time soon and that she has to live with it during her precious old days of rest and quiet. I did love that she was meowing to it to teach it how to do things or to tell it not to do things. She was like a mom, or well, grandmom. XD I loved how she took Tai under her wing despite how much it tired her. She was so sweet for the little kitten and I loved it. She even does some naughty/agile things that even she wasn’t expecting to do.
It was just the cutest and most hilarious to see Tai discover the world and all that is in there. And as you can guess, it didn’t always go so well. XD From getting stuck in the curtains to balancing and rolling away on a watermelon. It was just adorable!
But dear owners, never give your cat milk! Give it special cat milk!!! Also I would definitely recommend that the owner keeps an eye on the food and who gets what. Maybe separate them during feeding so you know both get the right food. Also who leaves their bath filled with water when you have a kitten/cat? It was that Sue was there, but I wonder if Tai would have gotten out safely if Sue wasn’t there.
I also had to get used to the way of reading. Normally I am used to right > left for manga, but here it was the normal way aka left > right. Which confused me greatly as this is a manga.
The art was, just like the other manga by this artist, superdupermega adorable and I was constantly awww-ing and ohhh-ing.
All in all, I would HIGHLY recommend this fun manga to all! It is cute, it makes you laugh, and the cats are great~ I cannot wait for the next volume!

'Sue & Tai-chan 1' with stories and art by Konami Kanata is a manga with a series of stories about a young cat and an old cat.
Sue is an aging housecat who goes to live with her owners son. He gets a new kitten named Tai-chan, and Sue isn't so sure about this living arrangement. Tai-chan wants to play when Sue wants to nap. Sue has to show Tai-chan what litter box to use and what food not to eat.
These are pretty cute stories about a couple cute cats. The art is great as are the stories.

Super charming art and characters. Mines a similar vein to Chi's Sweet Home, but cute cats are still cute. The little one super loves it.

So cute, a kitten being introduced to a home with a senior cat - having done this in my household last year, I recognised lots of behaviours and it is just a great read. An all ages manga.

Read this one twice because it's super adorable!
Sue & Tai-chan is a story about Sue, a gentle senior cat who lives a calm life where she can laze around all day. One day, her owner brought back a kitten named Tai-chan, taking care of the little guy temporarily for a friend. Tai-chan is a very energetic and curious kitten, eager to plant his nose into anything he finds. This disrupts Sue's calm daily life because Tai-chan has unlimited energy and demands her to play with her every time.
This story is told in short chapters, each of it showing how Sue handles the curious Tai-chan. From calming him down when arriving to a new place, to teaching him how to do potty in his own little box, to playing around and being chased by the young one around the house, getting into trouble together.
I love that despite Sue getting tired easily due to her age, and wants more than nothing to nap all day, when Tai-chan is not in front of her, she worries about him a lot. It's basically a story of how the senior cat adopts in the energetic kitten.
Their dynamic is so lovely to read, and their conversations in "meows" are so funny as well. The creator made a wonderful job depicting how cats act, and the chaoticness is definitely . I'm looking forward to more adventures from these two adorable cats!
Many thanks to Netgalley and Kodansha for the digital review copy!
