Read it to my grandchildren as they love cats, but the book didn't hold their attention. We read it on KU. (My mission is to find very good picture books on KU while I still read and review traditionally published books.)
The cats in this story don't do anything exciting and the illustrations are poorly done too, which doesn't help. In every illustration, the Mommy looks different.
The idea behind the story was good (sibling rivalry), but it was not very well executed, so I can't recommend this book. There are much better picture books about cats out there.
We have one picture book about cats from the school library picked by my grandson so I'll post a review later. The pictures in that one are amazing so I'm looking forward to reading it.

Super-cute read!
Rascal Cat Brothers by Lisa Jacovsky is a great addition to any child’s bookshelf, especially those with pets or new siblings. Midnight is NOT happy about new brother, Snowball and has much to say about it! Will he learn to adapt to the new family member or will it be kitty-chaos? An adorable story with cool illustrations that kids will surely love. Five stars!

Two cats, one house!
This lovely story features Midnight the cat who is unhappy when Snowball joins the family. Children can relate to the story if they have a new sibling. The Rascal Cat brothers demonstrate to children that there are always full of love and attention to go around, even with a new addition to the family.

Rascal Cat Brothers by Lisa Jacovsky was an adorable story read with the grandkids. Midnight, who's a cat, isn't very thrilled with Snowball, her new brother, when he joins the family. This story is very relatable for young readers who might also have a new sibling joining their family. Cute story. Cute book. Perfect for a bedtime read, or anytime actually.

The rascal Brothers was a good read for all ages including children. The story was well written and the illustrations were well drawn. I love how the author use neurodiverse adults to draw the images. My eight-year-old daughter love this book and she loves how midnight and snowball became brothers and how they got along eventually in the end.

The sweet bond between the cats and their mommy!
It’s a nice read! I love how the story is written from the cat, Midnight’s perspective. Like the author said, we all have to make room for a new addition at some point, and the two cats ended up having their special bonds with their mom in their own ways!

Cute kitty book
My three year old granddaughter enjoyed this silly story about a kitty that gets a new brother. Both kitties have to learn to get along and share their owners' attention. Perfect for young readers to learn a cute lesson about acceptance.

This is a sweet book about sharing one mommy, toys and fun. Getting a new brother or sister in the family means sharing is very important. The story began not quite so friendly but as it continued, it was very sweet how the love became prevalent. Kudos to the author in showing that love.

Endearing story!
The story captures perfectly the shenanigans that cats get up to! I like how the author describes the special bond between cats and their owners and how each cat in the story is distinct in character and personality traits.

Cat Brothers
I love any book about cats but this one also had some funny illustrations too. It’s about one cat who gets a little brother. He didn’t like it at first but now he does. A cute read.

This was a cute educational story. It was about getting along with new people in your life. The illustrations were great, and I also enjoyed the photos. Quick bedtime story.
I received a copy of this story through RABT Book Tours, and this is my unsolicited review.
