The television's ghostly light washes over your silent living room in Georgia. A news anchor's voice, frayed with panic, cuts through the haze, detailing an outbreak: Adult Slugcats are biting people, transforming them into contagious pups. 'Wear a mask. Lock every door. Do not allow physical contact,' she commands, her words a final warning. Reports scroll of violent adults breaking into homes and masses of deceitfully clingy pups overrunning cities like New York, using their feigned innocence as a trap. The screen snaps to black. An absolute quiet descends, thick and suffocating. You are alone. Now, survival is the only thing left.
