A selection of manga with cats and kittens in it.

Non-human can refer to monster, animal, furry, inanimate, werewolf, kemonomimi, etc.
Some of these are romance between the two however it's not required.

For all the parents and other older relatives, librarians, and teachers out there, here is a list of manga that are appropriate for everyone of all ages and could make for a lovely spot on any and all kinds of bookshelves.


WORK IN PROGRESS: I will add descriptions and maybe add more later.
Give me a break, it's 3 am here rn lol


Manga has always been popular with kids, and those in the West who visit their local library may notice that kids tend to gravitate to the graphic novel sections, sometimes just for these Japanese comics! Many of the most famous, popular, and beloved manga may be serialized in magazines aimed at children in Japan, but may surprise those in the West with how violent/fanservice-y/not-exactly-child-friendly they may be to Western sensibilities. Because of this, it can be awkward and/or uncomfortable to share with younger family members, and had any parent glimpsed the wrong manga they might unfortunately ban their child from manga entirely!
So this stack is for those who don't want to go on the wrong step, and want to introduce manga to anyone younger or let them start building a manga collection on reasonable terms. Or for those who want some generally lighter reads. Either approach is fine :P


Disclaimer: I try to put all kinds of series here, but I will admit that there may be a large bias for relatively older shoujo series... not necessarily because I think shoujo always deserves more love and far more credit than people give the demographic tag, but simply because much of it includes series I personally grew up reading. Though there are also nostalgic picks that aren't shoujo in here too. Either way, sorry if I didn't put in any of your childhood favorites haha.

This means it is near impossible to find these new without destroying your wallet, but there is still a chance in the ever-growing secondhand market! To find these older, hard-to-find series, I recommend the following sites:

Any manga that features anthropomorphic animals as the main cast. This stack is reserved specifically for series about animals with human attributes outside of speech.

Note: I did not include any manga that were overly explicit, or where anthropomorphic animals are present but not the main focus.

Includes comics with with a furry/beastmen and a human girl. The duo doesn’t have to be romantic to be on this. They can be friends, coworkers, or have a familial relationship

As long as they are the main focus, they can be on here.

Collecting manga can be really hard on wallets and the average right-to-left reader. So whether or not you want some short reads or something for your collection that will be easy on your bank account, here is a selection of underappreciated short series to explore your horizons with!

This will contain mostly one and two volume stories, but maximum English volume length will be three to four volumes. Official and COMPLETE English physicals must be available, so this stack will not have partially translated manga like many of TokyoPop's releases, nor digital-only releases like THE COMIQ (please still read that one though!). Most of these should be standalone titles and should be readily available even on the secondhand market.


WORK IN PROGRESS: I will add descriptions later.


Disclaimer: I am a big fan of the fantasy genre and the shoujo demographic. I will try to put all series of all kinds of tags, demographics, and topics here, but it should be expected to see my bias. I apologize in advance.
