   So does "Chi's Sweet Home". Second volume came out a couple days ago,   
   volumes 3 through 5 are scheduled for October, December and February   
   respectively.   
      
   It's indeed sweet enough to give you cavities. There isn't much story   
   though, just the everyday antics of a kitten and her (human) family.   
   Being a can-opener myself I like it a lot, but it's probably not for   
   everyone.
