Bookroo's summary

Angus, a spirited Scottish terrier, faces upheaval when a mischievous cat invades his home, stealing his favorite spots and food. As he chases her in vain, Angus's annoyance grows. But when the cat vanishes, Angus discovers an unexpected void. Will he embrace this new friendship, or is peace without the cat truly what he desires? Dive into this charming tale of rivalry and unexpected bonds.

From the publisher

From Caldecott Honor-winning children’s author and illustrator Marjorie Flack comes an adventure featuring her beloved Scottish terrier who must learn to get along with a new member of the family in Angus and the Cat. Angus’s world is turned upside down when a feline joins the household. She’s eating his food, napping in his favorite sun-filled places, and jumping out of reach whenever he chases her. Peace and quiet resumes when the cat disappears, but Angus finds himself missing his new friend.
