Plot summary
Rob McGroarty is finishing college while working at a veterinary clinic. A virus crashes his computer, and the thesis he was writing is lost. The appliances, among them Toaster, Lampy, Kirby and Blanky, want to help him recover it, with the rat Ratso joining them. At the clinic Rob looks after Maisie the cat and her three kittens, Alberto the Chihuahua with a broken leg, and Sebastian, an elderly monkey. Mack, Rob's lab assistant, plans to sell those animals to Tartarus Laboratories, the place Sebastian was sent as a baby. In the basement the appliances find Wittgenstein, an abandoned prototype supercomputer infected by the same virus and running on a single rare vacuum tube. It had tried to warn Rob, and the thesis was lost in the attempt.
