Oscar’s Big Surprise
Reatrice loves her cat, Oscar—maybe a little too much! Oscar is treated like a queen, with soft blankets, tasty treats, and plenty of snuggles. Life is purrfect... until one day, Reatrice brings home a special surprise just for Oscar.
At first, Oscar is excited! A new toy? A fancy bed? Maybe even a delicious snack? But then she sees it... A KITTEN!
Oscar’s tail flicks. Her whiskers twitch. This is NOT the present she wanted! How could Reatrice do this? Their home was peaceful and quiet—now, there’s a tiny, bouncy, bothersome intruder!
Will Oscar learn to share her home, or will she make Reatrice choose between her and the new kitten? Find out in this heartwarming (and slightly furry) tale of friendship, change, and learning to love—even when it’s hard!
