Seven Seas Entertainment licensed the manga, and it describes the story:

When Saku took in a stray black cat, she never expected that he would become the equivalent of a housekeeping life partner. But Yukichi, a giant cat who towers over Saku, is not your ordinary feline. He takes great pride in his culinary skills, and a good sale at the supermarket always gets his whiskers twitching. Saku may not have her act together yet, but at least she has Yukichi!

Yamada launched the manga in Kodansha's Suiyōbi no Sirius online manga section on the Nico Nico Seiga website in August 2018. The manga began serialization in Monthly Shonen Sirius in October 2021.
