In their last episode, Maru, Hana and Kitten Miri got their annual shampoo. But while the ladies can dry off in the sun, Maru’s stubborn floof requires something a little warmer. His opinion? It really blows.

And speaking of bathtubs, it’s time to set up the cat traps and see who we catch this time.

I see it’s the usual suspects, Andrew Y.

It’s time for Maru’s annual bath, that rare moment when we get to see how much of Maru is actual cat and how much is floof.

It’s another scorching hot day, and after a sweltering visit to the backyard, Maru’s ready to pour himself into a box.

In fact, Maru’s melting so much he’s actually getting smaller.

Keep cool, Andrew Y.

Maru puts on a magic bag and he and Hana stage their own version of The Princess and the Frog. How enchanting!

But enough play-acting, thinks Maru. If I’m going to be a frog, I’m going out in the rain to eat… grass? That’s what frogs eat, right? Yeah, let’s go with that.

Maru really loves to swing. Sometimes he wears a mask when he swings so you can’t see his face. Sometimes he invites his lady friends to go swinging with him. He’s one swinging dude.

More Maru!
