Well, I hope this author doesn’t have pets.
But also, when it’s not being terribly uncomfortable, there is actually some nice moments here and it does have a fun concept in the overly tired genre of isekai.

Where To Start The Beheneko Manga After The Anime?
If you finished the Beheneko anime and want to continue the story in the manga, you can start at Volume 10, Chapter 60.
Is The Beheneko Manga Over?
The Beheneko manga is still ongoing. Since launching in 2018, it usually releases two volumes per year.
Where to Continue The Beheneko Web Novel After The Anime?
Beheneko is a bit odd. It started as a web novel, but its light novel adaptation got two novels in 2018 before being canceled due to the fallout from various twitter drama between the author and the illustrator for one of their other series. Though that is unsubstantiated internet conjecture.
However, the web novel is still ongoing. You can pick up the Beheneko web novel after the anime at Chapter 113.
What to Expect From The Beheneko Manga?
Beheneko does skip a lot a decent chunk of the manga content, but its all just more fluff and ecchi content. So, in essence, much of the time what they are cutting is cut so that they can adapt more of the actual plot going on whereas the manga chapters are always sure to leave ample time for fluff and ecchi.
You don’t need to read the Beheneko manga from the beginning for anything it skipped story-wise unless you just want to go back for all that cut fluff and ecchi.
As for the web novel, however, both the manga and the anime do cut out a significant amount of exposition and world building, particularly from earlier chapters when it was setting things up. The web novel is just as fluffy and probably not as ecchi since it lacks as many visuals, but might be more worthwhile to read from the beginning.
Will There Be A Beheneko Season 2?
There has been no official announcement of a Beheneko Season 2 anime.
And you shouldn’t expect one. Not because it was degenerate, but because they only have two volumes of manga left that they didn’t adapt. There is simply not enough content for one.
