What an odd story. It's somewhat dry and a touch 'literary' in style. Chibi, the neighborhood cat, brings a couple closer together, but it's very subtle. There's no major marital hurdles to overcome, just a couple involved in their work. Reflections on their life, of the people flowing in and out, the changes in the neighborhood, and how a cat and a mid-thirties couple adopt each other; you know, life stuff. The story lacks excitement, but sometimes life just isn't exciting. 3 stars
