Mochi's House
Every house has rules. Mochi has amendments.
Home life, as interpreted by a cat with very strong opinions.
Welcome to Mochi's House
Mochi is a cream-and-gray house cat with a comfortable home, a loving family, and the quiet certainty that all of it exists for his benefit. Chairs are assigned according to warmth. Cardboard boxes outrank expensive pet furniture. Closed doors are administrative errors.
The Chen family sees an ordinary household. Mochi sees a boutique hotel with inconsistent service. Between work-from-home interruptions, homework, deliveries, naps, treats, visitors, vacations, and one earnest little dog who still believes rules mean something, there is always another domestic policy to reinterpret.
Meet the cast
Nina Chen
Mom and actual household authority. Warm, practical, perceptive, and considerably harder for Mochi to manipulate than he would like.
Daniel Chen
Work-from-home dad, endlessly negotiating with Mochi over ownership of his chair, keyboard, desk, and coffee-adjacent territory.
Eli Chen
Ten-year-old son and Mochi's enthusiastic accomplice, always ready to assign grand motives to perfectly ordinary cat behavior.
Pebble
A small rescue dog: loyal, anxious, helpful, and tragically convinced that household rules are real.
