Description

A storm, a shipwreck,

an ongoing ocean,

then finally, finally

a deserted isle. . . .

Safety -- but wait!

The fifteen swimmers

braving the waves

are, after all . . . kitties.

They are not into

cooperating

until, until

on this desert isle

they must.

Here,

from the creators

of the witty Old Cricket,

comes a wily, wise

saga of sogginess,

a feline fantasy

about drying off (elegantly),

shaping up (grumpily),

getting along (at last),

and loving it.
