There was a skirmish at the door. Sharon and Scheherazade, the absentee guinea pigs, came rushing (or rather scooting) across the floor. Sharon, a black satin piggie resembling an eggplant, had greenery dripping from the corners of her mouth. Scheherazade, the more glamorous of the two, long-haired and streaked blonde, might have escaped the detection of guilt except for her overwhelming chlorophyll breath when she mumbled, 'Hi.'

Welcome to the world of The Furry Disco. Cat DJ with twitching whiskers and swaying hips! Parrot walking cross-country ski style through applesauce! Freudian-esque therapy sessions with Schnauzer Dr. Von Sigmund! A dash of Mafia and a moral or two...

Set in the 1970s, this novella reflects a microcosm of society - a modern day fable of the foibles of human nature. From philosophers to insouciants, from the astute to the naïve, it delves into the timeless theme of greed and its resultant metamorphoses.

It is meant to amuse as well as act as parable. The tale is replete with puns, double entendres, and juicy, high-powered vocabulary. The inter-species alliances and discord provide a romp through the workings of the critters' minds and accentuate the author's love for her characters.
