Cat’s Got My Tongue is the third book in the Sunnydale Vets series by Austin Bates.
Returning home from his freshman year of college, River Reid has been appointed pet sitter for his sister’s cat, Almond. He doesn’t mind. He’d had the summer to figure out if he wanted to continue attending a local college or get an athletic scholarship from somewhere a little more flashy. But things get complicated when River has to take Almond to the vet… and face the nerd he bullied all through high school.
