Chainsmoker Cat
Yani Neko / Chainsmoker Cat / แมวสาวอมควัน / 尼古喵喵Summary
Yani is a catgirl with a seriously bad smoking habit. She smokes so much that her apartment smells like ash and is littered with cigarette butts—and plenty of other trash! Every time she tries to quit, she becomes weak to the cravings and gives in almost instantly. Will she ever get her life together, or is she doomed to live as a chainsmoking slob forever?

Yaniko and Imoko's mother. Like Yaniko, she is a heavy smoker, but maintains the appearance of no smoking in the home. For some reason, Yaniko calls her "Shizue" without any honorifics, but she doesn't get angry and dotes on Yaniko. Her husband (Yaniko and Imoko's father) is deceased, and there is a portrait of him in the house.
