Gabion, or Gabes, for short, has his work cut out if he is to fulfil the late wishes of his paramour, Dumpty Roo. Their Maid, a porky being of indeterminate proportions, is in dire need of a make-over in order to be holiday ready for a trip to the Arctic in the autumn.
This journey began with Dumpty's first - and last - attempt at getting her human to unfatten and fitten up. A journey that Gabes will continue to make Dumpty proud of him, and to show that her work and her efforts were not in vain.
"Dogs come when called. Cats take a message and get back to you."
"Of course, every cat is really the most beautiful woman in the room."
