One of the does, Clover, gives birth to a litter of six kittens. Hazel and Bigwig run into the mouse that Hazel saved from the hawk. The mouse tells them a large group of rabbits is gathering near the warren. Bigwig dismisses the mouse, but Hazel sends two rabbits to check it out. They find out that a large group of Efrafa is gathering and preparing an attack.
