Bay Bush Action came to our school to teach us about the predators that eat our kiwi, like stoats, wild Cats, Possums and even weasels. They put traps far away from houses so no dogs or cats go in the traps. They also told us that if we ever play around with a trap it will snap your arm off. They told us that people bring pests from houses and from other countries. They told us that some rats aren’t from New Zealand  they came from Indonesia. People brang too many rabbits to the forest, some people in the helicopter had to shoot the rest of the rabbits because there was too many of them. After they finished talking we had to go back to class and do some Create. We got a choice to pick a Song, Rap, diary, Animation and even a play. I made a diary about a abandoned cat.

Here is the diary:

Day 1.

I’m with my family and everything is really comfy, I love playIng wIth the kids they always pet me and feed me and always make me warm. We always went to the playground to have some fun, I lIked beIng walked because stayIng home was boring. We always had yummy stuff together, I always loved my famIly. It was nearly night tIme so we had dinner, I had a HUGE! Fish for dInner It was really yum. I was waitIng for it while my famIly puts the bone away. After 10 minutes of eating I was almost full It was bedtime so I went to the lounge and started to close my eyes. I was not gettIng comfortable so I had to go sleep wIth the kids. After 30 mInutes of sleepIng I heard noIses I tried to ignore it because it was probably the rain I then went back to sleep.

Day 2.

I woke up and I banged my head on a box, I was really confused about why I was In a box. I open the box and I see darkness, I was really scared I hop out the box and everythIng felt weird. Later on I was really starving I went to explore to see If any food was around, Later I saw a fish I really wanted it but I had nothIng to cook it. I was gettIng really cold, I had no where to go. I cried for help but no one was around. I then trIed to look for some friends to play wIth but there was no one around. I had tears comIng down and I really missed my famIly. I was alone and bored wanted some love I wanted food. I try to go In my box but I already had muddy feets on my paws. I go to a river and push my box on the edge of the river and then try to dry my feets. I go to sleep but everythIng was really cold so I try to get a warm spot.

Day  3.

I wake up and everythIng was wet, I hop out of my box and then I sunk Into the mud, I try to get out and my face went on the to the rIver. I was all wet I try to dry myself but I was too weak. I was really hungry and thIrsty I go to drInk water from the rIver but It was really yucky I rolled over because I was really Itchy. I missed my famIly super bad!! I tried to go In the water but I dIdn't want to get wet. It was nearly tIme for bed I was really scared to move. I heard weird noIses I ran back to my box and It was soft and wet I tried to sleep but I was muddy

Day 4.

I woke up and my box was gone, I looked around to see where it was. I went to the river and my box was floating on the water. I sat down wIth tears comIng down, I smelt somethIng good so I went to go look for It. It was a fish that jumped out of the rIver, I really wanted to eat It because I was hungry the last 2 days. I lIcked the fIsh and It was yuck I trIed to rIp the skIn off and eat the meat raw. It was really yucky I went to go look for somethIng else. I saw a kIwI I sneakily walk to the kiwi and jump on the kIwI to eat It. It was REALLY yum I went to a river close by and drank agaIn. It was really yucky I went to go to sleep and It raIned I was really really cold. Tears came runnIng down my eyes lIke I was lookIng at onIon.
