Kanata Konami’s original Chi’s Sweet Home manga series ran in Kodansha’s Morning magazine from 2004 to 2015. A total of 12 tankobon volumes were released during its publication. Vertical licensed the manga in 2009, and later re-released the series in three-in-one omnibus volumes.

Kodansha USA currently releases the manga series in English, which describes the main synopsis as: 

Chi is a mischievous newborn kitten who, while on a leisurely stroll with her family, finds herself lost. Overcome with loneliness, she breaks into tears in a large park meadow, where she is rescued by a young boy named Yohei and his mother. The little kitty is then quickly and quietly whisked away into the warm and inviting Yamada apartment… where pets are strictly not permitted.
