Alien Cats: Return to Katonia
When the evil-hearted DurPlunk catnaps Katonia's ruler, Sunset, two Maine Coons named Bootsie and Soxy must leave the life they have become accustomed to on Earth and return to their home planet. However, when they get back to Katonia, it seems like they will never be able to find their friend and leader. Once again, the other tribes must come to the aid of the Royals. Foxes, ferrets, and bird tribes join in the search. It won't be easy finding Sunset, though, not when it's rumored that he's being held prisoner near the dogs' tribe. No one wants to venture through their woods, still fearing that the dogs may be aggressive and attack. Yet, there may be no choice. As the cats say, "Time is tuna!" Every day that passes is another day that Sunset remains in danger. Can the good tribes of Katonia find him and rescue him before it's too late? Includes lyrics to the songs of Katonia! This is book 2 in the Alien Cats series. Book 1 - Alien Cats: No Place Like Home Book 2 - Alien Cats: Return to Katonia Book 3 - Alien Cats: DurPlunk's Battle for Planet Earth
