Awesome cliffhanger at the end of this chapter, Heidi! I enjoyed reading this one and some of the humourous details like Sebastian 'herding cats' and Dame Cleopatra's 'open bottle of Ginger Ale' while driving. Looking forward to the next chapter and seeing where this story goes!

Thank you, Neil. Super fun feedback, thank you very much. How the Critters will get out of this one is up in the air! It's an all paws on deck moment.:) We'll see you back for Chap. 12 and what will happen next.
