This comic was absolutely adorable and cute 😍. I never thought with this simple and cute illustrations it was also deliver an important messages such as friendship, confidence, advices, positive vibes through each characters.

Cat’s Cafe is a coffee shop where everybody who visited that place has their own story. Penguin who likes coffee for daily basis and treat it as a superenergy for him, Rabbit who work there but troubled with its confidence, Snake who has no friends and a lot more. And of course Cat, the owner and the role model for Rabbit cause Cat’s characters teach us that is alright if we do some mistakes in our life, its alright to cry too, and get ready for a new day and new challenge each day of our live.

Real life issue that being written and ilustrated in here is what every day life issue for everyone, I fall in love with Penguin instantly cause of the addiction of the coffee, Rabbit was my early teenager issues with lack of confidence, easily to cry but refused to giving up. Believe me, this book will bring your smile in your face again, realized that everyday is a challenge but also fun, no one’s life is perfect.

Coffee and good friends, this is what Cat’s cafe delivers from this book. I wish I can find this coffee shop around me and able to meet positive people anytime I like

This book took me by surprise. I was expecting something cute and heartwarming - which this book very much is - but this book also has a great message about lifting those around us up and is full of positive messages.

There is some most representation for mental health issues throughout this book as well as having representation for the Deaf community through Fox. Mental health is treated sensitively and no character is ostracised for their struggles. The uplifting words of characters as they help their friends jumps out the page to support the reader with any struggles that they might be having.

Well worth a read.

Not bad cartooning but I'm just not the target audience (ie. a grown-up with more than a double digit IQ). Way too cutesy, unfunny and just plain boring. Fine for the kiddles but that's it.

This is a very cute comic collection and I really had a great time reading through it. The art style is simple and cute with great colors. I absolutely loved all the different animal characters, specifically Axel the Axolotl!

Although it's very cute and fun it does have overtones of more serious topics like depression.

I can't wait to get a physical copy for my library. And also share it with friends and family

Thanks to net galley and publisher's for the opportunity to read and review this book!

This is a cute book about friendship, positive mental health and a group of animal friends looking out for each other. It was fun and had great messages, but it was a little too cute- bordering on cheesy- when I read it all in one go. It would probably be more enjoyable to dip into it now and again, rather than read it cover to cover.

Love the drawings, the theme and the message. The art is very cute and the reading light, all the characters are adorable with their unique personalities. This book deals with anxiety, mental issues and struggles we all have in some way. And in the end, all comes to coffee, the cat is always there to deliver coffee to everyone and in a funny way too. Not only is funny but it also inspires and shows motivational phrases. Adorable and heart-warming comics.

I adore this sweet cartoon collection.  Cat runs such a helpful cafe for his many featured friends, who each also are the subjects of some of their own cartoons. Coffee lovers will enjoy the many coffee themed strips as Cat takes care of his customers.

This book touches on some universal feelings and truths with its warm humor.  I highly recommend it.  I feel so much better for visiting Cat's care.


Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title in exchange for an honest review.

I would honestly rate this higher if I could cause I LOVED IT. This is a graphic novel composed of comics about a cat who owns a cafe and his life with all his friends and customers. It also discusses mental illness in a really lighthearted yet honest and subtle way. There’s also little fun activities to do throughout the book. Every comic made me smile and I could relate to almost the entire book. This is honestly just such a heartwarming and inspirational read so I highly recommend it to Every. Single. Person. Everybody could use a case of warm and floofies!

These were so adorable and very needed in a time like now. I don't typically read comics, but the title caught my eye, of course. In this weird time we're in, I figured something cute and out of my realm would be nice. I giggled out loud several times. Totally enjoyed this!

What an absolute joy! There is a warmth and softness to this book that everyone could benefit from. I’m so happy to be introduced to Tarpley’s work through this book.

Cat's Cafe is a delightfully sweet and fluffy comic that revolves around a cat who owns a cafe. It's filled with lovable creatures that each have their own strong personalities and some have their own neuroses. It's filled with acceptance, self care and above all spreading love and positivity with a hot cup of coffee.

Every comic is sure to brighten your day or give you something to think about. Broaching tough topics such as depression, loneliness, anxiety and existential crisis with cute creatures and optimism.

I recommend this 100%. The art is adorable and the message is sweet.

Cat’s Cafe is heartwarming and so so cute. At first, I thought this was just a cutesy feel-good type of book, but if you look closer, you can definitely start to see yourself in some of the animals and everything starts to have a deeper meaning. I personally related to the rabbit lol because of how anxious it was to do everything correctly while trying to be social. I loved all of the different characters and their personalities. Personally, my favorite was penguin and its love for coffee haha.

In this comic based around the lives of animals who interact daily with each other at Cats Café, we see how mental health is the base line and how anxiety, stress, lack of self love etc all effect the adorable animals and how they help build each other up and become friends with each other.



A book showing how a little kindness can go a long loving way I relate most to the anxious bunny especially on the anxiety reducing headphones part, that's totally me!



Many thanks to the publishers for allowing me to review this book for them!

So cute and wholesome little comics! Tackling big things like social anxiety, insecurities, and depression, this comic series has a lot of sweet warm-fuzzy moments with adorably-drawn animals <3

This was surprisingly a cute book! On the surface it has comics with cute animal characters. But some pages have comics where it digs deeper and pulls out real emotion. I found myself being able to identify with some of the animals, and I think that's great! The book is full of smiles and even some legitimate laughs.

Such a cute collection of comics with adorable characters! Positive messages are littered throughout the story, and it provides such a cute and uplifting story.

This was cute! I really liked the art style of these comics and I thought the shorts were good too. I hope to read more things like this soon!!

A big thank you to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for providing me an advanced copy of this book for my review. I really enjoyed reading this one!

Firstly, I have to say the main thing that stood out for me was the love and positive messages depicted in each page! Most, if not all, the panels are filled with so much love and heartwarming tales and feel good vibes.

The illustrations are simple but very cute and pleasing. Initially I thought the stories would be boring and repetitious because the book is 160 pages and each story is just a one page humorous snippet of what happens in the coffee shop. But surprisingly, the stories are very quirky and innovative, and ranges from the different type of customers who come in for their brew to the different situations they find themselves in. The creatures themselves range outside your typical land critters to dragons, octopus, and what not. The author also covers a wide range of topics like love, friendship, anxiety, depression and stress.

The only thing which I felt a little odd was the order in which the author arranged the stories. Initially I thought all the panels would center on the café or be coffee themed. But some of the stories just divert to random characters and focus on their daily activities. For example, rabbit having fun jumping in the rain puddles or lying on the grass and seeing the clouds. Don’t get me wrong. I loved reading these as well but I just felt it was odd to include it in this book. Perhaps they could have released a separate book just for these characters and story-lines outside the café?

Overall, I really enjoyed reading Cat’s Café! I have never read the web series prior to reading this, but I have subscribed to the website and am loving the new updates! I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to read a simple feel good book without any negativity in it.

Exceedingly twee and naff page-long strips about the animals that frequent a cafe run by a cat and his rabbit helper. Really little point to its existence.

This is basically a one-trick pony, stories of a Cat Cafe, and all the animals that come to get coffee, every day.

The humor is light. Not sure who this is aimed at. I didn't find any cartoons I actually laughed at, and the drawings appear to be very juvenile, yet it is talking about coffee which isn't really a kid thing. I believe this was and is a web cartoon, and perhaps I am missing something here.

There are only so many jokes you can make about drinking coffee.

Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.
