Watch out This book is so funny you'll probably pee your pants laughing. It's bonkers and barmy but blooming brilliant. There's no need to tell you what it's about because you can probably guess. (There are these cats, right? And they're, like, on the run.) But you should prepare yourself for kidnappings, stolen taxis, exploding old ladies, and witches with farts so toxic they bring down big trees. In fact, Cats on the Run is such a riveting, rollicking, rip-roaring romp that you should probably wear a helmet when reading it. And don't forget a spare pair of pants.

'This chapter book is laugh-aloud funny, quirky and original.' -- Buzzword Books
Tuck and Ginger are two cats who really get on each other's nerves.
But they'll need to pause the claws if they're to escape from the apartment where they're trapped. And escape they must, for their kidnappers are two warty witches who plan to magic Tuck and Ginger's body parts together to build the best witches' cat in the world: a black Purrari.
Tuck (who's a few granules short of a litter-tray) and Ginger (a former street fighter who's now a flabby tabby) will need to work together if they're to escape alive and find their way back to their faraway home.
The clock is ticking. The cauldron is bubbling. Ready for the adventure of a lifetime?
