30 Wholesome Comics Showing The Funny Realities of Living With A Cat, As Illustrated By An Artist Online
"I believe that a part of storytelling is creating a believable story."
It starts with a cat who treats the house like a tiny kingdom, and somehow the humans are the ones doing the adjusting. Between “Everything’s okay” and “You can’t wallow alone in misery,” this artist turns everyday cat life into comedy with a surprisingly soft landing, like a warm lap that also bites back.
Susie’s background in science and technology shows up in the way these comics click together, neat little cause-and-effect moments that feel believable even when the plot is pure chaos. One panel has “The Hunter, Mickey,” another has “The human world tour,” and then you’re laughing at “The most dangerously addictive ingredient,” because yes, your cat absolutely has favorites, rules, and opinions.
And just wait until the “Rainbow bridge” strip, because that’s where the jokes get real.

Susie reveals how her background in science and technology has influenced the way she tells stories.
"Storytelling and world-building are surprisingly systematic for me. I've learned not only to use my creativity to dream up ideas but also to find practical and logical ways to make my fictional worlds work. I believe that a part of storytelling is creating a believable story. If the world is fantasy or science fiction, there is still an element that the reader needs to feel immersed in and believe that this world is possible."5. Introduce them to your fist

Mickey goes full hunter in “The Hunter, Mickey,” and suddenly the whole “Everything’s okay” vibe feels like a lie you’re complicit in.
"My CAT & CAT ADVENTURES series tackled important life lessons of friendship and compassion, and A SKY OF PAPER STARS layers in a more profound layer of emotion into the mix. In it, I share my experiences of losing my grandmother and dealing with the confusion of grief, mixed with questions of what it means to belong as a Korean-American. The memories I share in this book are based on real experiences of my immigrant parents and myself, which makes it all the more special. But more importantly, it's a book that many kids can relate to as they navigate various life changes and confront their own questions of identity, belonging, and relationships with family."

When “The human world tour” kicks in, you realize the cat is not just living with you, they’re running a schedule.
“The most dangerously addictive ingredient” hits, then “Stuffed animals versus cats” and “Her plastic throne” prove your “harmless” purchases are fueling a full-on monarchy.
After “The rainbow bridge” and “Sleeping on grandma’s face,” the series lands on “You can’t wallow alone in misery,” like the cat is quietly insisting you keep moving.
In the artist's storytelling, she draws upon her own experiences to create an authentic narrative.
This cat’s chaos is funny, but it’s the heart in the comics that sticks around after the last panel.
