TB is barely grown, smart-alecky, and full of energy in this prequel to Realms of the Cat. He has survived living on the streets, escaped an owl attack, and endured his human's baby doll dresses, but when his dog-pals, Butch and Spencer, are kidnapped, TB doesn't hesitate to jump to their rescue. He is horrified when he realizes the kidnappers are dog fighters. They plan on using Butch to fight, Spencer for practice, and TB as bait for the other dogs! Can he figure out a way for all of them to escape? And how will they get back home if they do escape?
