Description

The Familiars is a story of three remarkable animals - Aldwyn, a stray cat who pretends he has special powers to get adopted; Skylar, a know-it-all blue jay with immense magical abilities but can’t seem to keep them under control; and Gilbert, a clumsy tree frog with a belly full of strange concoctions and a knack for getting into dangerous situations. These three unlikely allies embark on an adventure to protect their loyalties, and ultimately, they must decide what they value most - being true to themselves or fulfilling their master's wishes.
