Hidekichi Matsumoto, a manga artist, owns both a dog and a cat. The dog, Inu, is sweetness itself, and the cat, Neko, is cute and cool. She draws her dog as kind of a loveable idiot, while the cat's portrayal is more.. sinister. And so we have here a lovely collection of cartoons on the divergent personalities of her pets. There's nothing earth shattering here, but it does what it says on the tin, and sometimes that's exactly what you want.
3.5 stars
This manga is a collection of one or two-pages stories about the cat and the dog of the mangaka. The drawings are really cute and brought me a lot of joy, especially when looking at Inu, the dog because he was just so cute with his big eyes. The stories were fun, funny and cute. I enjoyed them a lot. I also have a cat, so I sometimes related to the stories, which was really fun. The stories are light-hearted and easy to read. I recommend this one for children but not only because I think every cat and/or dog-owners would love this manga.

I received a free copy of this from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
While the internet is great in bringing new artists to a wider audience not all of them need to have their comics published in book form. And for me, this is a prime example of that. Its a generic cats and dogs are so difference and heres how. Its not funny, its not cute. Its just blah.
A collection of cute short comics about the joys and surprises of being a pet owner. Filled with easy-to-read, funny situations and charming characters.
I love mangas of all kinds and am always open to new ideas. When I found "with a cat and a dog, every day is fun", I was thrilled. I love cats and dogs and stories like that are exactly my thing.
I already loved the cover and the drawing style is totally cute.
The stories in the manga are just funny and so close to real life. I had a lot of fun and had to smile again and again.
The drawing style is just cute and perfect for the stories.
All in all a wonderful first volume and I would like to read more of it.
Volume one deserves 5 stars for me
This is a delightful, light-hearted manga that anyone with pets will absolutely relate to. Hidekichi Matsumoto tells stories about her dog, Inu, and her cat, Neko. They're the best of friends and each have a distinct personality. Inu is cheerful and bouncy and always up for a cuddle, while Neko is more aloof and devious but sometimes also loving (very occasionally).
The art style is cute and the short stories made me laugh out loud several times. There are a couple of pictures of her actual pets sprinkled throughout and they look as adorable as their manga counterparts. The fact that it's drawn as multiple short stories/comics means it's the kind of book you can pick up, read a few pages of and then put down again easily. Makes for a nice break from work.
ARC Copy...It was adorable and suggestible for dog and/or cat lovers. Just the normal everyday hijinks of a hyper active doggy and an overlord of a cat...pet owners can relate!

Too cute!

It's all too cute collection of short stories about living with a cat and a dog. In a truly Japanese fashion, it is created to make us swoon because of the cuteness overload. Honestly, it is way too cute to be legal.
Neko is a stereotypical cat (a heartless yet cute villain) and Inu is the stereotypical dog (a lovable idiot).

In the original, the dialogs handwritten and the translation attempts to copy that style. The effect looks very cute and has the same indie/webcomic style as the original. The stories are believable and relatable even for a person who has neither a dog nor a cat.

The whole manga was such a sweet comic relief from reality and I seriously can't imagine anyone not liking it.
This book is so fun to read. Neko and Inu are so cute and I really liked the "How I Met Inu/Neko" parts.
***Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review***
Not as cute as I would've hoped.
I thought this was so sweet, and funny. It captures the different personalities of all pets just perfectly and also made me think of beloved past pets that I have had the honour of having. Very much enjoyed this, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to review it!
I asked for the chance to read a galley copy of this book because the dog and cat my family had when I was born were named Inu and Neko. My parents had adopted them while living in Japan though my mother later admitted that calling “dog! dog!” left her feeling foolish there. My Inu lived into her teens and was a good natured and clever dog. My Neko made it to half a month shy of 20. She never let me forget that she remembered me as a human kitten and that in the household hierarchy she outranked me! So kind of like the Neko in this collection!
This is a super cute book for any pet lover. The artist/author obviously loves her pets and really gets across their personalities. If you want a charming and fun read that will make you smile I recommend this book! It’ll make you think of pets both current and past.
This is a comic of the author's real life experiences with her dog Inu and cat Neko. #WithaDogANDaCatEveryDayisFunvolume1 #NetGalley
Regretfully, I cannot review this title. I have tried to download it three times without success. I tried twice using NegGalley shelf and once trying to download it to Glose. Nothing worked. I will not post to my site for this reason.
