A really lovely story about the adventures of owning a cat. Really relatable moments and a lovely art style (give me doodles of cats and I'm hooked), I had a very enjoyable time reading this.

Nice graphic novel - it perfectly captures what it's like living with a cat. Perfect for cat lovers.

Super cute story that any cat owner can connect to whether you sought out a cat or somehow needed up with one!

Super cute collection of comics about life with a cat. Very relatable! I laughed out loud several times.

UPDATE: After posting my initial review, the publisher got in touch and supplied me with the PDF of the file so I could read it properly and I was not disappointed. Every cat owner will relate to this and more, the illustrations perfectly capture the energetic, chaotic but relentlessly loving relationship that cats give.

I hope we get to see more adventures from Rascal as he grows up!



Old Review: The rating is less so a rating on the content and more for the fact that there were no images to accompany the text.

As I am a cat owner, I could relate to the majority of the narrative as it was but it would have been more entertaining to see the text in context with the illustrations!

Short but sweet graphic novel detailing the trials and joys of cat ownership. Cat owners will recognize quite a bit here and those who are cat adverse are likely to be charmed nonetheless.

<i>Rascal</i> is a slice-of-life graphic novel depicting author Deglin's life with a surprise kitten from her mom. While he may not be the pet she wanted, he's certainly the pet that wants the most in every day. This was a cute graphic novel to read, and I think Deglin really captured many of the mannerisms that cats can/do possess (though this always varies in each cat's personality). Many of the 4-page spreads are wordless yet they still capture the daily life of taking care of a cat. I don't know if I can handle a cat like Rascal, I'm sure that Deglin is able to do so and will have more adventures with him in the future.

An absolutely charming book about an abandoned black kitten and the young woman who becomes his owner.

Any lover of cats will smile with delight & recognition at the delightful 4-panel drawn stories.

Cute, sweet, funny story about a new cat owner. As someone who has spent her entire life around (oh, let's face it, OWNED by) cats, so much of this rang true. Several laugh out loud moments!

A sweet fictional chronicle of a kitten taking over the life of a young woman and the furry felicity that ensues. Well worth a read and pet owners of all species will enjoy the pet life represented in these pages.

Have you ever had a cat? Then you will love this graphic novel - it perfectly captures what it's like living with these tiny fur-covered hell beasts we adore. Our narrator didn't intend to end up with a cat - one just sort of ended up with her. Rascal's name is also a descriptor - he's a total rascal who wreaks havoc wherever he goes, but he's also her cat, and as much as he annoys her, she loves her kitty. And so do we. Because Rascal is adorable and he is every cat we've ever had. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go and cuddle both my furry mini-lions.

I quick, fun read for anyone who has a cat and understands the love/hate relationship with them. The illustrations are entertaining.

As someone that has a cat, this book made me laugh at how accurate it was. The art style of this graphic novel is simple but is really cute and draws the eye. I really enjoyed how simple the storyline was and how you could see the owner growing to love the cat over time. Highly recommend this book!

Aaah, I loved this so much! This is a really cute collection of short comics (each page is a four panel standalone comic) about owning a cat. It has a perfect mix of humour and cuteness and I fell in love with Rascal instantly. There's not too much I can say given that it doesn't have a plot but I felt it perfectly captured so many aspects of owning a cat. I would definitely recommend picking this up if you're a cat owner, cat lover or just want to read some cute comics about an adorable kitten. It would also make a great gift for the cat-obsessed person in your life.
