Worse Than Rotten, Ralph by Jack Gantos & Nicole Rubel (Ill)

Ralph is left to recuperate after a night on the town. Unfortunately, he's taunted by some alley cats as he lounges in the hammock. He determines that he will show them what he's good at: being rotten. They make trouble throughout the neighborhood and end up at home, where he discovers it's nice to have a loving owner in Sarah.
