I’m Pia, and I LOVE pets so much that I’ve set up a club with my friends!

Today we’re all SO excited about seeing the Amazing Animal Roadshow, and especially its star, Iggy the Iguana. But somehow Iggy has disappeared! This is Pet Club’s BIG moment. It’s time to work together, think fast and use all our pet knowledge to find him – otherwise the show will be ruined!

But Iggy is nowhere to be seen. Can an iguana really just vanish…?
