The Feral Buccaneers {#Wattys2015}
8 parts Complete #wattys2015
Rocco, a young rat who has decided to run away from his home in Spain to set sail on a boat with pirates, finds that life on the sea isn't as great as it seems. He can't swim, and survival on the boat is hard. Three cats, Bjorn, Trinket, and Snaggle all want to eat him. The overly loyal terrier Gunter wants Rocco off the ship, and the captain's annoying parrot Nestor enjoys bugging the young rat. But there are some nicer animals, such as Rita, a mouse, and Dondigo, a very confused squirrel.
A restless spirit haunts the ship, and it promises greed and death. Strange things happen, and the boat eventually is burned. Somehow, all the animals survive the boat's destruction. They float to a deserted island on the edge of the Bermuda Triangle. Their survival is miraculous, but considering what's on the island, they may not want to stay...
