Vulpecula sent Prince Catalus to capture some foxes so that she could hunt them in the castle. Catalus, along with three other goblins (including Grack), travelled south and successfully kidnapped Jimmy and Jilly from a fox village. At Castle Morbidden, Catalus delivered the three foxes to the queen, then left in order to "make sure the corridors are clear" for the hunt. In fact, he prepared an ambush for the foxes. When they sought out the "secret hiding place" that he had mentioned earlier, he tried to kill them, but they managed to escape.
