How will they escape? You’ll find out in Pineapple Disco!
But first, I need some help naming the disco!

An Impawsible Situation (Food Bowl Mysteries Book 1)
By Katherine Hayton
When his food is at stake, Thor must sacrifice nap-time. When Thor’s human puts the wrong brand of food in the cat bowl, it ruins his entire day. After numerous entreaties prove ineffective, Thor embarks on an adventure to find out what’s gone wrong. Confronted by a closed food store, a distraught shopkeeper, and with the crime of a kidnapped wife to solve, the task might prove Thor’s undoing. Add a gang of heavyweight cats and a council worker pursuing strays into the mix, and the brave little cat is soon out of his depth. The right brand of cat-food is an obvious necessity. But if Thor can’t keep his wits about him, he might end the night in the animal shelter rather than curled up on the couch at home. ‘An Impawsible Situation’ is the first in a new cozy mystery series told from the cat’s POV. Thor’s adventures continue with ‘Cat Red-Handed’ and conclude with the third in the series ‘You’re Kitten Me.’ Scroll up and one-click to solve the food bowl mystery today!

I’ve only just finished the first Pineapple Port book (& I LOVED it!), but I’m thinking if she owns a club, Jackie must be a music buff, & would name her club after a popular song or band (like calling it Crickets, after Buddy Holly and The Crickets, but maybe that’s a little obtuse?)…
