Summary[]
Flower gives birth to a new litter of pups and leaves Sophie and Spud to babysit them. She then leads the Whiskers out foraging. Not far away the Zappa are also out foraging, along with Punk and Houdini's pups Axel, Slash and Rose. The Zappa trespass onto Whiskers territory, where the rightful owners are play-fighting and relaxing. Flower spots the intruders and orders her family to attack. The Zappa retreat without a fight, but in the chaos their pup Axel is left behind. Axel is found by Mitch, who brings him back to the family. Flower spares his life and accepts him into the group.
On the way back to the main burrow the Whiskers encounter a cape cobra. They mob the snake and drive it away, but it retreats into their burrow, putting the lives of the pups and babysitters at risk. Flower pursues the snake to try and drag it out but recieves a snake bite to the head. Her pups are saved but Flower later dies from her wound, leaving the Whiskers without a leader.
