Daisy has a sleek grey coat and silver grey eyes. She's the quietest of Bracken's kittens. In fact she's so quiet that her new owners are beginning to worry that she'll never make a sound. But when their daughter Mel collapses unconcious from a mystery illness, it is Daisy who calls for help with her very first 'Miaow'.

Buttercup is multicoloured - every colour imaginable is in her fur! And just as she has many colours, Buttercup has many roles to play with her new family of three girls, two boys, Mum and Dad and Granny. Everyone wants Buttercup at the same time, and it's all getting too much. Buttercup can't please everybody all the time - can he?

Weed is the last of Bracken's litter. Very tiny and scrawny, Weed is as shy and timid as a mouse, and no one wants her! No one except Granny, that is . . .
