Being a Cat Is Hard!

The little kitten Niannian transmigrates and becomes the only rare female in the galaxy who still carries the ancestral feline genes.

Her fur is fluffy and silky, her eyes gleam like polished turquoise, and her pink paw pads look absolutely irresistible to squeeze.

The Empire's residents have never seen a creature this adorable.

As soon as Niannian arrives on the planet, she's given treatment beyond her station: top-quality fresh ingredients shipped from other planets, and a soft, warm feather nest, a different one to sleep in every day. All she has to do is livestream her daily life to the entire Empire, whenever she feels like it.

Mrow~ The servants on this planet are pretty considerate.

Niannian is very pleased and graciously permits them an extra half-hour of filming.

When Niannian gazes sleepily at the camera, purring as she kneads the feather bedding...

The whole galaxy goes wild! S-so cute!

On the day Niannian chooses her future mate, the candidates rub their hands together eagerly. They'd gladly wager their entire fortunes for a chance to win her favor!

Among all the outstanding males, Niannian strolls unhurriedly on her little paws, hops onto the viewing platform, and stops in front of the gleaming military boots of the Empire's aloof heartthrob, the Marshal.

Countless citizens are devastated. Their Marshal is cold and heartless, with eyes only for work. He's clearly not the best match for a kitten!

But Niannian tilts her head. Mrow~

The obsidian ornament on the Marshal's belt is sparkling beautifully in the sun.

Everyone knows no cat can resist something shiny!

The entire galaxy worries that Niannian won't get enough care or company at the Marshal's residence, and that she must be having a miserable time.

In reality, Niannian and the Marshal sleep and work in the same room, happily going about their business without disturbing each other.

Then her mating season finally arrives, and as Niannian sleeps on the Marshal's lap, she suddenly transforms into a human.

The beauty's snowy hair falls like a waterfall, and her slender, soft waist is delicate enough to fit in one hand.

The esteemed Marshal grabs her by the waist and demands with a cold expression, "Turn back."

Niannian: ...Foolish human! She's so beautiful!

Later, the Marshal becomes obsessed with petting the cat, kissing every inch of her from ears to tail.

Niannian, utterly resigned, tries to transform back into a human to escape.

Then he pins her down and pets her all over again.

Being a cat is so hard! QAQ!

A sweet-and-salty, long-haired calico with odd-colored eyes x a fastidiously clean black dragon whose every scale sparkles

A tsundere, self-obsessed, healing sweetheart x an aloof, abstinent heartthrob
