What is Paddiwak and Cosy about?

Paddiwak is perfectly happy as Sally’s only cat—until a bumping box arrives with a new kitten inside. Furious and jealous, Paddiwak runs away, determined never to come back. Meanwhile, frightened little Cosy hides in every corner of the house. As the day grows colder, both cats find themselves lonely, grubby and desperate for warmth. When they finally meet, they discover that sharing a home—and Sally’s affection—might not be so bad after all.
