I absolutely loved it! 

The mangaka has a way of showing such earnest expressions on the kitties’ face. I also like how as soon as one plot point is resolved a new more interesting one shows up.
aww, my little heart when Maruru saw he got replaced, but he decided to let Koko rock with it. so koko wouldn’t be alone again ;___; ahhhhhhhhh!
 

The bond between Hachi and Maruru is so sweet as Hachi is more hardened by the world but caring to a fault. Maruru even steps into a mentor role himself as a kitten joins the group. 

Definitely excited to read more!
