Synopsis

Gemma is accused of eating Boombah the cat and is put on trial.

Could Gemma really do the unthinkable and eat Boombah? This seems to be what happens when the Clark kids visit New Earth and are lauded as heroes at a public reception.

As it happens, Boombah has been eaten. But not by Gemma. The truth, as usual, is much more bizarre.

Production notes

A comedy series for children, Dogstar is the story of an amazing quest across space to find a missing ark full of dogs: the Dogstar.

Flash was used to animate Dogstar. However, each animated character was broken down into many more parts than is usual with most Flash animation projects. This helped to produce a rich and intense animation.

Air dates are for Germany's Kika network. The series was later broadcast in its native Australia on Nine Network, starting on November 27, 2007.
