'Fluffy black kitty Shibu uses his tail to convey emotion in this standout story about big feels...Fong's intricate monochrome illustrations depict nearly pettable displays of the cat experiencing pride (tail shaped like a star), exhaustion (tail becomes pillow), and confusion (tail resembles a question mark).' Kirkus Reviews
