“My Cat is Such a Weirdo” by Tamako Tamagoyama
It’s a #Manga about #Cats. You already know if you want to read it.
Despite the title, it’s about Tamagoyama’s TWO cats, Ton-chan and Shino-san. Both are rescues; Ton-chan (full name Tongari) was adopted from a shelter and Shino-san (Shinonome) from a private cat rescue. (There are also some anecdotes about Tamagoyama’s parents’ cats.) The stories are mostly about the amusing behaviors and contrasting personalities of the duo.
This originated as a webcomic and it’s in full color. It’s mostly four panel, although it adjusts its format to fit the stories. A fun touch is that photos of the actual cats are frequently included as bonus panels, often of them doing the very thing the story is about.
Ongoing (I think) with three volumes in English (Seven Seas.)

Panel 2: Tamako pokes Ton-chan. “Hey, don’t rub your butt agains them!” Panel 3: Ton-chan walks away, dejected. Shino-san approches from the other side. Panel 4: Shino-san sits on the pile of folded laundry. Tamako, from off-screen, “I told you no.” Bonus panels: Tamako notes that “They eagerly rubbed their butts against my fresh laundry.” Two photos show the cats doing just that. (remote)
