Bookroo's summary

A stray cat lands a job at a sumo stable, tasked with chasing mice for food. But indulging in sumo-sized meals leaves him too sluggish to catch the returning pests. Determined to regain his agility, he joins the sumo wrestlers in their rigorous training. As he transforms into SumoKitty, he not only becomes a formidable mouse hunter but also inspires the wrestlers with his perseverance. Will his newfound discipline be enough to keep the mice at bay and maintain his place in the stable?

From the publisher

A hungry cat gets a job hunting mice at a sumo training center (heya), but once the mice are gone he continues to stuff himself until he is too fat to chase the mice that have returned–so he decides to train with the sumo wrestlers, and SumoKitty becomes a scourge of mice and an inspiration to the wrestlers.
