I Am a Cat

The story is characterized by its episodic structure, lacking a formal plot, and instead focuses on the cat's humorous and sometimes biting commentary on human relationships and societal norms of the Meiji era.
The novel also touches on themes such as the generation gap, individuality, and the cultural changes of the time.
