Balloons Wussywat the Clumsy Cat

Wossat? Hello!

-Oops!

-Hey!

-Sorry, Ortus.

Hey, Duckadile! Hello.

Oh. Hi, Ird.

Whoops!

Hello.

It's a bright, sunny day in the garden,

but Wussywat is unhappy.

I'm waiting for Ird. She's been in her box for a very long time.

-That's because she's poorly.

-Wossat?

It means she's not very well and she has to rest.

Oh, dear. Poor poorly Ird.

I'm going to do something special to cheer Ird up.

What a thoughtful idea, Wussywat.

Hello, Ortus. Ird is not very well, and I want to cheer her up.

-Do you have any ideas?

-Poor Ird. Let me see what I've got in here.

Would any of these be, um, useful?

Oh, balloons. Goodie! We can have a get well party.

-What are those other things for?

-The ribbon's for tying stuff.

Let me show you how.

You see, you take the left side over the right side. Then under.

And then the right side goes over the left side and then...

Oh, it looks complicated to me.

Can you blow up these balloons instead?

Not really. Why don't you

go and ask Duckadile?

Um, OK.

-Watch out, Wussywat!

-Who-o-o-oaaaaah!

-Ha-ha!

-Ha-ha! Clumsy cat! Ha-ha!

What are you doing?

Ird is poorly, and I'm going to cheer her up.

Um, do you know how to blow up balloons?

Oh! Oh! Hold on right there.

This should squirt it.

-Wossat?

-I dunno. But when I hold it like this, it blows air like this!

-Oh!

-It's a bicycle pump, Wussywat.

It's used to blow up tyres.

Oh, it's very blowy. Let's try it on the balloons.

Ha-ha-ha. Ha-ha-ha.

Now, um, you need to attach the balloon

to the pump nozzle first.

The wozzle? Wossat?

It's the thing on the end of the pump to help the air get in.

So, you put it in the hole? Like this one!

Duckadile, can you hold the balloon hole on the wozzly,

-then I will pump it?

-Ready... Steady... Pump!

Careful! Not so...

Oh.

-Whoa-ho-ho!

-Yip! Bleh! Meh!

Sorry, Oggy.

I nozzled the pumpy. I mean, I plumpled the wozzly.

I mean... Ooh.

Do you think the balloon

might stay on better if you tied it on, Wussywat?

Yes! Ortus can be tier-upper. He's good at that.

And Duckadile, it's your turn to pump.

Left over right and under.

Right over left and under.

Yippee! It works! It works!

Ta-dah!

Great teamwork, Wussywat. Now all of you can blow the rest up in no time.

Oh-oh-oh.

Whoa-ho, that's tickly!

Quick! Catch that balloon!

Who-o-o-o-o-oaaah!

Oof!

Oh, no. Look what we did.

-They're all over the places.

-Come on, Wussywat.

It's not like you to give up, is it?

O-o-o-oh. That gives me an idea.

When you find one, just tie it to me, like this.

Left over right and under.

Right over left and under.

Wow! You remembered.

Ha-ha-ha.

Be careful you don't go flying off, Wussywat.

You look like a balloon seller. Ha-ha.

Wow, look at me! I'm a balloon tree.

Who-o-o-oa!

What's all that racket? I've not been well, you know.

Surprise!

Oh, Wussywat. What you doing up here? Cats can't fly.

-I came to cheer you up, Ird.

-Oh, you have, you have!

That's the funniest thing I've ever seen! Ha-ha.

-I feel much better now.

-THE OTHERS:

-Hooray for Ird!

Oh, Wussywat, you are a clever cat.

Bye-bye.
