16 [Similar Anime] Like My Roommate is a Cat

Shut in artists learn to open up with help from children/cat. Mood is similar, these anime aren`t overly dramatic, but you can see even little things can have big meaning for those who feel strongly about those involved. Watching these is a great way to get you up from gloom and make you feel better by the power of niceness.

Both She and Her Cat: Everything Flows and My Roommate is a Cat focus on a human and a cat as the main characters and explore the profoundly meaningful relationship that can foster between an owner and their pet and the large impact that cats can have on their owners lives.
My Roommate is a Cat is more comedy oriented while She and Her Cat seems more subtle, but both shows deal with more mature themes than the typical cat themed kids show and are sure to touch the hearts of anyone who knows what it's to share a meaningful bond with a pet.

Both stories start off with a depressive main character who doesn't communicate much with other people. They live on their own. They are very good at their work but they lack interactions with others. As the story goes on they find that "something" that keeps them going further in life (it's different for either series!)

Basically replace a small girl with a small cat and you have the same kind of heartwarming story, with a similar kind-hearted cast of characters going through every day life.

Both are powerful bittersweet tales about a character moving on from their parents deaths and learning the ropes of guardianship as they begin to take care of another. Gakuen Babysitters differs as the protagonist becomes the guardian of his younger brother and begins working as a babysitter for a school. While My Roommate is a Cat involves the protagonist looking after a pet cat. If you enjoyed the sweet, heartwarming environment one created you will likely enjoy the other as well.

Both are stories about how a man comes to terms living with a new "pet", and how it affects both their lives. Similar style of comedy as well.

They are both slice of life series about cats being adopted into new families. One difference is that in "Mikkan Enikki," the male cat Mikkan is adopted by the Kusanagi family (Mr. & Mrs. Kusanagi plus the son Tom) while in "My Roommate is a Cat" the female cat Haru is adopted by a young single writer, Subaru Mikazuki. Second difference is that Mikan can actually speak Japanese, walk on two legs, read, write and has a particular appreciation for alcohol and he serves as a vehicle by which we can understand what the other pets are saying; while Haru can not speak to Subaru in Japanese nor does she display any human characteristics, we do hear her side of events along with the other pets she comes across the course of the series.

Both series are about stray cats that finde their owners.
Although Chi is targeted to children and My Roommate is a Cat deals with more mature themes too.
They are both adorable nonetheless.

Both shows deal with the concept of family and learning to love and care for others. While Hinamatsuri doesn't have a cute cat protagonist it really doesn't need one. It surly makes up for the lack of cuteness giving the viewer much more laughs than i personally got from My Roommate is a Cat.

1. A warm story.
2. Protagonists are orphans.
3. Both the protagonists have a cat as their main companions.

I loved both of these anime series, and they are kinda similar.
In both stories, there is a writer boy who lives alone and tries to write his next short novel. and they both trying to find a way to give them a push to write their story. in Doukyonin wa Hiza, Tokidoki, Atama no Ue, there is a cat that helps him get himself together, and the other ones, his friends give him the power.
hope you like it.

Light-hearted and sometimes heartwarming, these two anime are aimed for individuals who are into adopting small adorable creatures as part of their family.

In both series there are characters who don't know much about interacting with other people "normally". So many things normal people do every day is something bizarre to them or something they have never thought about.

Both are laid-back slice-of-life shows involving a guy who was living an ordinary, stressful life before having a chance encounter with an animal. Ever since then they live together and the guy's outlook on life has since improved through their friendship. In My Roommate is a Cat, the pet is a cat while in Senko-san, it's a fox girl who is doing the housework to ease his stress. The MC's perspective on life takes a huge turn for the better ever since meeting a new roommate and building their bonds.

Comedies about a pet trying to make sense of the human world while also doing pet things, i.e., mostly causing trouble. My Roommate Is A Cat has a more dramatic side to it while Lovely Muco is mostly just a comedy.
