The Picks:

Cats Purrfect Strangers TP – Dark Horse Comics brings out a humorous collection of short stories about the joys of owning a cat. Best friends Manon, Erika, and Camille are young women who see adventure everyday. But their lives are changed-for better or for worse-when they all become cat owners. Follow their lives as they raise three quirky cats and all the excitement and fun that comes with it. This volume collects the first three French albums and is available for the first time in English.

Cat Massage Therapy Volume 1 GN – Seven Seas Entertainment releases a manga about purrfectly professional massage therapists. When Nekoyama stops at a therapeutic massage parlor after a long day at the office, he expects to have his troubles kneaded away. What he doesn’t expect is to find the parlor is run by a cat, or that said cat will be doing the massaging! As this professional “meowssuer” digs soft toe beans into his aching muscles, the dog-loving Nekoyama feels his heart warm and his worries melt away. Soon he and other world-weary workers meet the other cat (and kitten) professionals who have mastered pawfully cute techniques for reducing human stress. This full-color manga will appear to cat lovers and manga readers of all ages.
