Skippyjon Jones

His ears are too big for his head. His head is too big for his body.

"I am not a Siamese cat..." says Skippyjon Jones, a rambunctious kitty boy with an overactive imagination. He would rather be El Skippito, his Zorro-like alter ego. Skippito, the great sword fighter can do anything. He knows just how to save a roving band of Mexican Chihuahuas from a humongous bumblebeeto that is tormenting them. Skippito gets the job done—yes indeed-o.

You can join Skippyjon Jones on his great adventures. But be warned—he's a rascal who stops at nothing. And he is out to steal your heart.
