Frankie Comics has the same lovely feel as Chi's Sweet Home. You just feel the absolute love for Frankie the cat throughout and it is so endearing! I have lived with roommates who had cats, so while I don't have cats of my own, I can say with certainty, Frankie Comics captures the spirit of owning a cat in full.

A comic about cat ownership. Some good gags but I struggled to finish the book as I didn't care about the cat or any of the characters. You're getting what you think you're getting. Not for me but it is okay for what it is.

The comics are adorable! I don't own a cat but I do own a dog so I could relate to some of these scenarios. My favourites scenarios were "Comfort" and "Bathtime 2", I found them very relatable. I love the art and the colouring, it was very cute and filled the characters with life. I think cat owners would definitely love this comic and I think dog lovers could enjoy this too and find it relatable.

Super adorable and sweet comics about a couple who adopts a kitty that shows up at their house. Completely relatable to anyone who's ever shared space with a cat. Pick this up when you need to feel happy and squee at an adorable cat

This was so cute and pretty, Frankie is adorable!! It reminds me a lot of my cats, they also don't know how to play catch but love muy headbands.

This is so freaking cute. I loved the content--so relatable, with enough whimsical additions and personalized details to make it a bit unexpected and funny. The art style was a bit simple/basic cartoon-looking for my taste, but it's still quite cute and effective.

If you're looking for some feel good fun and utterly cute adorableness, then Frankie Comics is for you!

I couldn't get enough of this wonderful collection. It's so sweet, cute and lovely. It was just what I needed to get through a rough day because it's just so fun. The illustrations are also utterly adorable and make for quite the story telling method. And it's cats, and I love cats!

I have had many cats over my lifetime, both my own and friendly neighbourhood cats that kept my company, so this book was WAY TOO RELATABLE. Frankie the cat mewing it's little heart out at all hours of the night to let you know it needs attention or food or nothing at all? Yep! Accurate. Frankie sleeping on the backpack instead of the cat bed? All the time!

I adored this collection of comics. It's accurate for any cat owner and it's just fun. It'll make you giggle, laugh and just feel good. I highly recommend it!

Five out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and Oni Press for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.

Sooooo cute! Perfect read for a sunny day off. I only wish there was more, seemed a bit too short.
Book also includes some tips for aspiring cat owners.

I absolutely loved reading Frankie Comics. It’s centred around a couple who stumble upon a stray cat that snuggles its way into their home and hearts.

It’s cute and colourful and such an all round wholesome read. There were so many things that made it enjoyable; its artwork, an adorable cat that could steal the heart of any cat lover, body hair positivity (um… yes!), the odd pop culture reference (I live for these!!) and a warm sense of humour mixed in with a bunch of hijinx.

Even my son came over to see what I was reading and started snorting with laughter watching Frankie the cat get up to all kinds of mischief. It’s funny actually because there were so many similarities between Frankie and my son that I’d have to argue that raising a child and caring for an animal really isn’t that different after all…

I’d recommend this gorgeous graphic novel for cat lovers and cat parents alike!

Frankie is so cute! This collection of comics is an accurate depiction of what daily life is like with a cat. The art is good, and the story is easy to follow.

This was a cute collection of comics about an adorable, mischievous cat. There are lots of cat comics out there, but this one is really good.

To no one's surprise, this was absolutely adorable! I follow Frankie (and her humans) on Instagram and was ecstatic to find out that I can see even more of her. I can't wait for another book, but until then I'll subsist on rereading.

A really cute graphic novel about a cat and its adopted human family . It’s well drawn and the dialogue is well written. There are many humorous parts and if you have ever owned a cat or rather if a cat has ever owned you then you will fall in love with this book ! There were a few movie and TV series references within as well . I had a good time reading this and I would love to read more by this author.

I would like to thank you for the eARC of this book which was kindly provided by the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This graphic novel is about an artistic couple Rachel and Mike who adopts an adorable kitty named Frankie. It explores the daily cute and funny situations of how their kitty behaves.

This graphic novel is so cute. As a person who has a cute cat member myself these, all situations were so on point. It was so funny, adorable and heartwarming. I loved the art and I love the stories.

Also, I really loved the main(human) character-Rachel. It was really awesome to see the representation of body hair. I think more people should embrace that. I loved the puns. So, an overall very cute graphic novel which made me laugh out loud. So yes, it was purrfect!

The only thing I would like to say 'PLEASE DO ADOPT AND DO NOT BUY'. I would like to see the author promoting this message instead of saying that there are options to adopt and options to buy from the cat breeders.

Cute, fun, fast, cat lovers will simply love Frankie (and probably identify in many situations)
I recommend for all ages, in addition to the drawings being super cute, I laughed a lot!
I will definitely follow the author!

This comic was an absolute delight to read!

As a new cat owner myself, the things that happen in the comic strips were ENTIRELY relatable, and I had a good laugh whilst reading it! I really enjoyed the artist's art-style, and I thought the cat puns were honestly hilarious!
The artist's relationship with her cat, Frankie, was absolutely adorable to see, and it made me want to pick up my own cats for a cuddle! (much to their dismay)
I'm looking forward to seeing more comics featuring Frankie in the future!

Would highly recommend to other cat owners as a short and fun read!

Rating: 4/5 stars

Oh my gosh, this is just the cutest graphic novel EVER! We follow Frankie the cat from the moment she entered her new home and all the antics that she gets up to with her owners and it's just so adorable! Absolutely loved it!

A very charming and cute collection of comics about the cat Frankie and her family. I thought that this was so fun and cute. I really enjoyed reading the comics and the everyday shenanigans of Frankie. The art style is fun and this was an overall fun read!

This is a perfect book for the cat lover. This comic chronicles the author's every day life with her cat, Frankie. These cute cartoons are easy for any cat owner to relate it. Each comic strip stands on it own, so it is great to either read in one sitting or pick up whenever you want. Frankie is illustrated as a very expressive animal that is easy for readers to fall in love with. This is sure to be a hit with comic lovers and cat lovers.
