About This Book

A pampered Persian cat, accustomed to china-fed meals and a manicured garden, meets a scruffy street cat who brings the scent and stories of the outer world. A shared bullfrog awakens buried hunting instincts, and the streetwise newcomer persuades the aristocrat to join a nocturnal lesson in wading for prey. Through comic contrasts between cultivated luxury and gritty survival, the tale traces the indulgent cat's curiosity, a risky initiation into wild behavior, and an unlikely camaraderie that exposes differences of class, habit, and appetite while prompting the protagonist to confront a freer, more dangerous life.
