The cats have overthrown the hoomans!

Rolo comes to Earth to find his ancestors, but the giant cats throw him in the pound. He escapes and hides on a circus airship, where he meets Ailey, an odd girl with a troubled past. She offers to help Rolo find his people in the mythical city of Zorx if he helps her run away from Earth. But bounty hunters are on their tail — a black cat and her ape goons. With the help of a fortune-teller elephant and a one-eyed alley cat, Rolo and Ailey must find where in this catopian world they truly belong.

A smart, hilarious, and genuinely touching tale of runaways, resilience, family, and cats.
