How perfectly,

perfectly happy we are.

MEEE-EW and the old guitar.

How PURRRR-fectly happy we are!"

Tabby McTat is purr-fectly happy, singing along

all day with Fred the busker.

But when Fred gives chase to a thief, the two

are separated.

Will they ever find each other again?

A gorgeous, shiny foiled cover makes this the perfect gift
