"This is the story of Komatsu-kun and me. Everybody, please take care of us!"
Komatsu-kun Biyori is... fine. Just fine. There's nothing wrong with it, really, but there's not much to get excited about either.
As a nonfiction yonkoma, there's not much of a plot. It's just random facts about ferrets and vignettes from Tsubaki's life with Komatsu-kun (her ferret). It does have its emotional highs and lows, since the real Komatsu-kun passed away during serialization, so some chapters do pack a punch. But for better or worse, most chapters are just fluff.

Surpingly, this is actually a good learning material, I learned a lot about ferrets, the do's and don'ts, how to keep one, I never knew some details that we're tackled here even though I considered myself a animal geek (yeah I love to research random animals, ...

Komatsu-kun Biyori is a manga for those who are similar to the mangaka; the experience of owning and raising an pet and remniscing on past ones. A heartfelt autobiography that I think any pert owner can enjoy regardless of what animal they took care of. There were a few moments where I even cried a bit with how familiar my experience was with the mangaka's.
