Synopsis
Cat-eared girl Yuki befriends cat-magnet Riko during high school entrance ceremony.
Shirakaba Yuki is a girl with the Catulus syndrome, which afflicts her with cat ears and a tail, plus some cat-like behavior. In the middle of her high school entrance ceremony, Ayano Riko—who is also a first year—comes in with a mountain of cats on her back. Apparently she's a cat magnet... Unexpectedly they become friends? (Source: MU)
