A man stumbles into a massage parlour run by cats. The cats are adorable.

A friend recommended this after I talked about reading Cat + Gamer. This volume is cute but there's even less plot and the translation/writing and art didn't completely work for me. However, if the premise appeals to you, don't let me dissuade you from giving it a try. (

A cute manga about a business man who stumbles upon a massage parlor run by cats. At first he is questioning, a cat masseuse?! But soon he is addicted and visits the massage parlor every day after work. Soon he hatches a plan to bring the massage cat (and apprentice kittens) to his corporate office to drum up some more business. It's an overwhelming hit and soon his whole office is addicted and the work vibes have never been better. There isn't much of a story, but it's cute and it makes me want to get a massage from a cat.

The title is the book.

A stressed office worker named Nekoyama visits a massage parlor run by a cat. The cat and its kitten trainees make an on-site visit to give massage therapy to Nekoyama's coworkers. It's 126 pages of cats kneading, crawling, and napping on people to help them destress. It's cute, but that's all it is.

Maybe a villain or crisis will be introduced in the next volume? (How can there be a next volume?)

(Disclosure: I'm a dog person.) (
