Pineapple was the only cat, until he wasn't. The new cat did everything Pineapple did, but louder and faster. Pineapple felt bad, so was happy to return to his routine when the new cat suddenly disappeared. But soon, Pineapple was worried and went looking for Kiwi. Kiwi was hiding in a cupboard Pineapple didn't even know about. Soon, Pineapple was doing everything Kiwi did. Who is the copy cat now? 

This was a great story (don't worry, both cats are still alive at the end). I loved the illustrations - Kiwi jumping over Pineapples head was so accurate. This will be read again and again, a great choice for a child whose pets don't get along (yet).
