Jiro Haruta has an unfortunate penchant for attracting trouble, so when he stumbles upon an odd-looking cat on his way to class, he does his best to avoid it. However, the cat not only steals Haruta's lunch, but it follows him home!

Can Haruta escape this cat-astrophe, or is he stuck being the proud owner of a handsome catboy?!
