Adorable. A cat-space-hero graphic novel.

Okay, so I binge-read this series of books and feel very little shame about it (even though I’m 24 years old and not the target audience for these books), but they’re just super adorable, and I can’t stop gushing.

This is the second story in the series. Binky’s trusty sidekick, Ted, has been left out in space and Binky must devise the perfect plan to rescue him. However, there are tons of “aliens” that stand (or should I say fly?) in between him and his best friend. Will Binky be able to rescue Ted? Will his cover be blown and his family find out he’s actually a Space Cat?

This story is just as fun filled and humorous as the first one. But, not only are these stories fun to read, they also have a great message.

This cat is super cute and I love him and his family. If you are not reading these books, start.

After abandoning his plans for space travel to protect his humans, Binky gave up on any chance for stepping foot outside the space station. That is, until he accidentally falls out of a window. He always knew that being a member of F.U.R.S.T. came with its share of dangers, but space is a dangerous place for a kitty. Luckily his humans come to HIS rescue. Everything returns to normal until - GASP!!! Where's his best friend, Ted? Outside!!! Right beneath the alien spacecraft!!! Will Binky take his chances in outer space, or will his first and only visit spell doom for his mousie?

Ashley Spires does not disappoint in the follow up to Binky the Space Cat. It's as hilarious as its predecessor and its successor - just as gassy, too!

A hoot and a half! A licensed space cat, in hot pursuit of an alien threatening his family on their space station (read: a bee in their house), Binky falls through a space portal (bathroom window) into outer space (the backyard)! By thinking quickly, he secures himself with an oxygen supply (the garden hose) and stabilizes a gravity tether (tying himself to the garden gnome) just before being attacked by aliens (bees) and being rescued by his human before he is able to save his trusty sidekick Ted!
With unparalleled bravery, Binky hatches a plan to tunnel under the space station and return to outer space to save Ted!
Also included: lots of gratuitous nervous-cat farts. Because every book is made better by cat farts.
