Tiger is a young cat who was cruelly treated by two young teenagers. Having escaped out of the house of these teenage boys, he fled as fast as he could away from his tormentors. He did not stop until he felt completely exhausted, which was miles away from the house and unknown territory for Tiger. Tiger finds his way into a garden. But this is no ordinary garden. It's the garden of Granny C., and Granny C. is no ordinary granny. Tiger has found his way into a magical garden where animals can talk to one another and talk to Granny C. At first, the other animals that are resident in the garden are afraid of Tiger. They are suspicious of the newcomer, thinking that he may have come to cause trouble. After making sure that Tiger understands the house--and garden--rules, Granny C. says that he can stay with them for as long as he likes and promises him he will be safe. A special bond is formed between Tiger and Granny C. News comes to the attention of Granny C. that a new family has moved into the village. They are rumored to be a family with two young, mischievous boys. She hears tales of them being troublemakers. Granny C. says that she isn't worried, however, as her home is quite a way from the village. But she is wrong to not be concerned. One night, the boys break into Granny C.'s cottage. It is the boys who get the shock of their lives. It's bedlam! The boys are so frightened that they run out of the cottage scared out of their wits. The boys think the ordeal is over once they are outside, but someone is waiting for them--Tiger. Tiger takes control and teaches the boys a lesson.
