Neptune Onyedike the Cat

Fresh book is out today. Fresh book is great to read. It written by my human who tell nice story all the time; I proud. 🪐

DEATH OF THE AUTHOR and THE SPACE CAT are Hugo Award finalists. Still traveling, 😉. Thank you for reading. Full lists here: thehugoawards.org/hugo-history/2…

Just had a meeting with my film agents and managers. Good stuff is bubbling and boiling. Periwinkle was sleeping, but Neptune attended and gave his input by making sure everyone saw his ass three times.

A meditation 🧘🏾‍♀️: One minute and five seconds of kah-kah-kah (there was a woodpecker outside) with Periwinkle and Neptune.

Neptune Onyedike is a sphynx cat. A sphynx cat is a sleek, hairless heat-seeking missile of love — soft as suede, endlessly curious, and always plotting how to sit on you. 🐾

When you put a blanket down for a cat and the cat immediately climbs in and gets comfortable there, it feels sooooo validating. You just feel like, for once, you did something correctly, 😊.

MOVE, Periwinkle! I’ve got work to do! 😆 He’s been sitting here for ten minutes.

Happy Book Birthday to THE SPACE CAT! 🥹 Brought to you by the Hugo and Eisner award winning duo, me and Tana Ford (we've worked on Marvel stuff and LaGuardia). This graphic novel has been 5 years in the making. Available where books are sold, including: afriwarebooks.com/store/p4923/SP…

I’m going to keep a copy beside my bed. It’s perfect to read right before I go to bed. The colors, the fun, non-humans being non-humans, outer space, nonsense at home, so good for dreams. Read it with your pets. Heh, cats and owls in Nigeria, 🤭🇳🇬🐱🦉.

Got my author copies of THE SPACE CAT graphic novel! It’s is scheduled for release August 12 from First Second Books. It’s gorgeous, chunky and solid. What a year it’s been. Cozy catfuturist comics. 🌌🐱

Sometimes what one expects to find in a science fiction writer's house is exactly what one expects to find in a science fiction writer's house. 🤖🐱

Cat on my lap, cat on my desk. Trying to obstruct my view. Staring into my soul. And STILL I will get writing done. ✍🏾

🤣 Cats are so weird. #Caturday

Here's the cover for our forthcoming graphic novel, THE SPACE CAT (from First Second Books, due out August 12, 2025). This is a book for ALL AGES (IGNORE the other labels). It's a book you can read with and to your cat or dog...& parrots, owls and chameleons will enjoy it, too.

My ex-boyfriend stopped by. He does not like cats, yet Neptune won him over. Look at this, 😁. Periwinkle, who has detested him in the past (would leave the room whenever he came by), actually played with him. What is happening? 🤨 I’m a bit annoyed, lol.

@Nnedi @PeriwinkleChuk1 He just furniture. 🪐

Periwinkle and me. 😊 The Space Cat and the Writer.

The way my cat @NeptuneOnyedike loves my daughter @AnyaOkorafor brings me joy. 😊

@PeriwinkleChuk1 This very true. 🪐

My brother is great Cat. 🪐🐾
