Genres: Slice of Life

Shark Meow is an orange tabby kitty who wears a shark suit.
A little clumsy and always taking things at their own cozy pace,
but every day with their best kitty friends — and the rescued baby kitty, Little Meow —
is filled with unexpected little mishaps and sweet adventures.

A sunny warm spot in the park, the sparkle of the sea,
steam rising from freshly roasted sweet potatoes,
the fluttery feeling of the first snowfall…
These small everyday moments fill their world with warmth and delight.

You can’t help but smile and think, “So true!”
A soft and snuggly kitty anime that brings joy to everyday moments.
