When Oscar Went Wild
When a Hollywood crew rolls into the desert to shoot a picture, they bring along the most unlikely star: Oscar, a fully domesticated cougar who's never seen the wild. Naturally, Oscar immediately escapes, and suddenly two hard-working cowboys named Ren Merton and Sig Watson find themselves drafted into the most ridiculous roundup of their lives. What follows is a series of increasingly chaotic attempts to wrangle a big cat who seems far more confused by freedom than dangerous. Miss Reynolds, Oscar's owner, adds another layer of madness to the mix. Tuttle writes with the kind of deadpan wit that made western humor timeless, trading in the absurd collision between civilized Hollywood and the untamed frontier. The story works because it's not about shooting or fighting, it's about two practical men confronting a problem that makes absolutely no sense, and trying to solve it anyway. If you've ever wondered what happens when tame meets wild and nobody comes out looking sensible, this is your answer.
