He's a huge star here on YouTube! “Despite his fame, [Maru] remains as aloof and as chilled out as ever, ” says his owner.

I absolutely adore Maru and Hana. I especially love how their wonderful owner gives the cats their own autonomy. For example, she may lay items out but it is up to them how they interact, she never picks them up and forces them into things like some youtube cat owners also she did a wonderful autumn video of them freely playing outside. Plus her sense f homour is funny and innocent. This coupled with the love and care she provides explains why they are never subdued and always upbeat and (well at least Hana 😅 😆 ) is full of energy! Plus let's face it - Chunky fluffy Maru and beautiful fun Hana are adorable! Thank you mugumogu 💜 💜 💜

Maru is not just aother pretty face, he's gorgeous! He is quite a character too. He's exceptionally intelligent. You can tell when he's trying to work something out, like how to enter a trampoline without falling out. Or how to ride a sled in the snow. Brilliant! Ah, and the tail that almost has a life of its own. It never stops! Maru has an amazing personality which is evident in the 300+ videos of him sliding across the floor with his legs splayed out. Hysterical. The first time I saw him I laughed 'til I cried! All that aside, he has a remarkable ability to make people FEEL GOOD! That's not something you can teach, it just comes naturally. And Maru has it in spades. God bless you, Mugumogu for bringing the incomparable Maru into our lives. Maru you are the best! Love you Maru!

ITS SO SQUISHY AND FLUFFY AND I JUST WANT TO HUG HIM AND LOVE HIM

I follow several cat families on You Tube: Kodi and Shorty, Cole and Marmalade, Shiro's family - but somehow Maru is just in a class by himself. If you don't have his book "I Am Maru", I recommend it. No matter how rotten the day has been, Maru always puts a smile in it.
