Scruffy Old Cat is a really great book because it’s funny and cute and I didn’t want it to end.Lily thought that the cat Sardine was really ugly and disgusting, but she ended up loving him so much that she didn’t want her perfect fluffy, white cat from Pop Hooper’s Perfect Pets truck anymore.I think the message is - things and people that seem really perfect on the outside, don’t always have a perfect personality.
