When you secretly adopt a (very) pregnant cat, things get messy fast.

It’s her dream come true: Martha’s cousins are about to come for a six-week summer visit. But instead of hustling to meet her parents and head to the airport to pick them up, she finds herself rescuing a pregnant cat from a garage sale free box.

Things get messy when her parents find out and, even worse, when the cat runs away before giving birth to the kittens. And her cousins Sanjay and Anand face troubles of their own. Anand must get strong enough to conquer the Tarzan rope that looms across the neighborhood swimming pool. Sanjay has a big secret stashed in Martha’s attic.

Can they all work together to find Martha’s cat and newborn kittens? Or, will the urban coyotes get them first?
