Creepy cat vol 1 by Cotton Valent

4/22/2025

0 Comments

 
Cover of Creepy Cat volume 1. Flora is standing in a victorian style living room with Creepy Cat in her arms. Creepy Cat is also sitting on the lush arm chair behind her, and below the chair, and peeking out from behind furniture around her.
Flora is a mysterious girl with a penchant for painting who inherits a macabre mansion in a likewise eerie town. Unbeknownst to her, her new residence also comes with a creepy cat that can multiply infinitely, see ghosts, travel to other dimensions, and converse with otherworldly creatures. Even though she is at first frightened by the cat, Flora begins to love the cat and becomes distressed when the cat goes missing. The local police officer, Oscar, who is rather sweet on Flora, takes opportunities to try to help Flora with the many situations Creepy Cat gets her into, though Flora doesn't always appreciate Oscar's advances.
