Buzz Sausage Wolf has a new neighbour - but OH NO, it's a CAT!

Everyone knows, cats and dogs are NEVER friends. But maybe this strange Smelly Cat is different...

A hilariously silly full-colour illustrated story about making friends, ideal for newly independent readers moving on from picture books.

A warmly funny story for fans of Rabbit and Bear, large dollops of silliness and the occasional unexpected dog parp.
