Monsterous Heart

manga about humans and their supernatural pets! these pets are either undefined lil weirdos, magical beasts, talking animals, eldritch beings, or mythical creatures-- and all very loved by their owners! to qualify, these pets must be markedly abnormal from a regular pet, either by appearance, species, mysterious abilities, or behaviour. the pet must be considered outside-of-normal either by their owners or strangers that encounter them and the owner may have to hide their abnormality from others. if the pet looks like a domestic animal but talks, and this is considered normal in-universe, the manga may still be considered for this stack. weird-looking pets that are normalised within the world they are set in may also be considered. the feeling of weirdness towards the pet can also be temporary for the entry to still count; after all, humans adapt to strange things very easily when they're cute!

for manga and manhua in which a humanoid character temporarily pretends to be a pet or a stray animal through a magical transformation, please see my other stack!: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/49298

Astral Pet Store by Yuewen Manhua (阅文漫画), China Literature, & Ancient Xi
'In the era of astral pets, only the might of pets was essential! However, making the pets stronger has always been a slow and arduous process for pet warriors.

Even the humble watchdog of the shop possessed ten legendary skills, and the female worker in the shop claimed to be a Goddess... As for what the shopkeeper Su Ping thinks: I'm merely training these cute pets to become exceptional overlord beasts. What? Is it not normal?'

Monster Pet Evolution by Yuewen Manhua (阅文漫画) & Wine Pool Inebriation
'The world experienced a cataclysm and monsters are now roaming the Earth. Born out of a necessity to subjugate these monsters, this new era saw the rise of a new profession. Monster Trainers – individuals who conquer, cultivate, and train these monsters. Thus begins the story of Gao Peng. An ambitious young man with dreams of his own, who gets launched right into the golden age of monster cultivation. Gao Peng: “Even if it’s a loach, I’ll be able to evolve it into a dragon that can soar to the heavens!”'

Stories that mainly involve youkai, but also includes gods, folklore, ghosts, and the occult.

I've read most of these, so they're available somewhere to read, though possibly incomplete.
