Business Cat is a cat-headed human who acts as a cat while being a CEO of business. Howard, a dog-headed human, gets the IRS to investigate MioCo. Howard then buys the company and BC is out on the street. But with a little bird's help he manages to regain his company and oust Howard. A mildly entertaining read.

Loved this one! But I already knew business cat and read it online so I knew I would! Fun read absolutely! Also, as a cat owner, I can relate...

I should probably preface this review by saying that I’m a huge fan of Business Cat. I think the comics are hilarious, and I’ve been reading them here and there online as I’ve been able to.
Business Cat is written and drawn by Tom Fonder. You can find the comics online, or you could do what I mainly do, which is wait for them to come out in book form and binge them all. While also keeping your eye open for the online comics. Why not?
The basic premise, on the off chance that you don’t know, is that the CEO of a company is well…he’s a cat. More accurately, a cat head on a human body. The end result is…interesting. And it leaves a lot of room for office shenanigans. Hence the entire premise for some insane (but fun) plots.
Business Cat is really a perfect series for anybody that enjoys humor like this, and honestly for cat owners as well. We know some of Business Cat’s behavior all too well, and sometimes it’s a real treat to see it shoved into a different perspective or situation.
It’s been a while since I was able to sit down and read through an entire plot arc for Business Cat, so this volume was exactly what I’ve been hoping for. It was over one hundred pages of comics all surrounding the same core plot. The series itself has been a lot of fun, but it was also nice to have something a bit more that I could sink my teeth into.
This was a really fun book with lots of hilarious moments. I’m not going to tell you my favorite moment (and yes, I absolutely do have a favorite), because it’d be a major spoiler. But I will say that I nearly cried laughing at that point. So consider yourselves warned!

I've seen his comics before going into the book and I just love the absurdity of the comics. This one didn't dissapoint! I just have so many questions.

At the ends there's like extra panels for each comic and that made it 3 times better in my opinion.

I'm a fan of the business cat comics and I'm glad to see this book. I think the premise of a person-cat doing cat stuff is hilarious but has the potential to be worn out quickly. This book does not do that and I like how it also brought in additional characters and a bit of light suspense. It was really fun and there were some really unexpected characters, like the prison gang. A fun read that wasn't very long but also wasn't too short.

Business Cat: Hostile Takeovers is a great read for anyone who owns pets, works, or both. I had hoped it would be fun for my YA section, but the audience is definitely more working world adult. I plan on recommending that the adult collection add this. It's a great read for lovers of The Oatmeal and Sarah's Scribbles.

Business Cat is the CEO of a multi-million dollar company. What does he do there? Mostly sit around and stare at nothing. Play in the file cabinets. Knock things over. After he's ousted, he has to find a new home and a new job.

This story is told in comic strip style, but there is a cohesive narrative. It reminded me a lot of Manfred the Man - a hilarious comic about a little man who acts like a cat and is raised by giant cats.

I just really liked it! It's fun, cute, and totally ridiculous.

Well, I knew that Business Cat was a thing, however, I did not follow it before and did not know the story or anything. So, I cannot say if this is a repeat or a whole new story. I was a bit surprised that it was a continuous story from start to finish.
And while I did enjoy it, I cannot say that I was laughing from start to finish... or at all. It was a fun read but nothing that would make me grin or anything.
However, I have to say that the cat or bird on a human body when they take their clothes off is rather disturbing!

I used to love the Business Cat comics, but they don't work as well for me in this format. I was just kind of bored and didn't find it very funny after a while. I also have to stay that I thought the "bonus strips" at the back,t hat required you to go back and reread EVERY SINGLE PAGE, were very gimmicky and poorly designed.

I’ve only ever seen small portions of the comic strips of Business Cat on social media. Glad to have had the opportunity to read a full comic/graphic novel of it of it. Pretty cool to see how a human-sized cat would function in the real world. Definitely captures the cat personality accurately! Business Cat without clothes is a little disturbing imo.

I’m a fan of Business Cat. So happy to get a copy of this arc from Netgalley. It’s a simple and quick read, great when one isn’t not in the best of health and can’t read anything too wordy.

This was a fun collection that was both linear and non-linear. The art style was fun and easy to follow and I really enjoyed the stories created by Fonder. A fun bind up that it worth the couple of hours it takes to read.

I'm a fan of Business Cat and was already following his adventure online.
I love the mix of typical business moments with cat behavior.
This comic make me laugh and think at the same time.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

This is a really funny book that got darker than I expected towards the middle. It's perfect for cat lovers and cat haters alike, the humour coming from the situations Business Cat gets put in and the way he reacts to them. I'm really happy that Business Cat is not reserved for the internet only anymore where I and so many others first came across it. This book is perfect for digital mediums and a quick laugh in the middle of the day.

Thank you to Andrew McMeel Publishing and Net Galley for this ARC.
