Tidy Wussywat the Clumsy Cat

Wossat? Hello!

-Oh!

-Hey!

-Sorry, Ortus.

-Hey, Duckadile!

-Hello.

Hi, Ird!

Whoa! Oh. Prr.

Hello.

It's a bright, blustery day in the garden

and it looks like there's been a storm.

-Oh, wossat? Wossat? Woss...?

-It's rubbish, Wussywat.

-It must have blown in overnight.

-Ooh, lots of it.

Yes, but you shouldn't just throw it back on the ground.

It needs tidying.

Oh, I'm not happy with this at all. It's a disgrace, it is!

The storm must have blown this rubbish in from outside the garden.

It's horrid, horrid, horrid! SO untidy. That's why I'm tidying up.

I've organised a team of tidy-up-er-ers to help.

Rubbish looks so dirty lying about,

especially in the garden.

Come on, Wussywat, you can help me!

-Hold this bag while I collect the rubbish.

-OK!

What a good idea, Wussywat. Just like Ortus and Duckadile.

OK, Wussywat, that's almost all the plastic bottles.

Just one last one in that prickly bush. I'll have to pull it out.

-Hang on.

-Oh! Oh! I can reach that, Ird! If I stand on tippy-toes...

-Look out, Wussywat! That wind is strong today.

-Whoa, oh, ah!

-Oh, dear!

-Whoa!

-Whoops.

-Oh, you've done it now, Wussywat! Now we have no bags.

Come along! Make yourself useful while I go and find some more.

-Chop, chop! Tidy, tidy!

-Oh, sorry, everyone!

Don't worry, Wussywat! We can find somewhere else to put the rubbish.

Yes, but first,

you should split the different kinds of rubbish into different piles.

That's right! Er, because Ird is not just tidying the rubbish -

she's recycling it!

Ooh. Recycling-ing. Wossat?

It means different types of rubbish get collected,

so it can be used again.

-OK, let's see what we've got!

-Yes, recycling-ing sounds fun!

Look, this rubbish is made from all different things.

That's right, Wussywat.

There's plastic, paper, and metal, and they all get

recycled in different places, which is why they have to be split up.

Oh, that's a good idea. Then they don't get mixed up.

Yes! So different rubbish can be used again

to make different things.

-Er, I'll be in charge of paper then.

-I'll tidy the bottles.

And I'll tidy the cans!

That should stop it blowing away.

Oh, there's nowhere to put the bottles or cans.

There are too many of them!

Mm. We can do what Ortus has done with the paper and that rocky-rock!

-Come on!

-Well, I'm...not sure that's going to...

-Here, let me do it!

-Huh, ahhh!

-Ah!

-Look out, Wussywat!

-Whoa!

Clumsy cat, Wussywat!

-What are you doing?

-Sorry, Ortus.

We were trying to stop the rubbish blowing away, like you were.

Ooh, um, can we put it inside your shell, maybe?

It's my home, Wussywat! It's where I sleep.

No, you wouldn't really put rubbish in your bedroom, would you?

-Hmm, no, suppose not.

-What about my pond? We can put it in there, haha!

-But that's where YOU sleep, Duckadile.

-Oh, yeah! Silly me, haha!

It's no good, I can't find any more.

Oh, what are we going to do about the mess?

-I know! Let's look in the shed for bags! Come on.

-Hahaha, Ortus!

Now, be careful, you two.

-Ohh!

-BOING

Oh, that's where I keep my boxes! I was saving them.

Hahaha, whoa! Sorry, Ortus. But what are you saving them for?

Oh. Uh, well, I use them for storing things.

-What things?

-Well, I don't rightly know.

-Oh.

This box is empty now I'm not in it. What about yours, Duckadile? Empty?

Yep!

Are you having one of your ideas, Wussywat?

-We can use the boxes to put the recycling things in!

-Brilliant idea!

-Ooh, yes, it is! Come on, then.

-Let's get tidying!

Yay!

Mm!

Huh.

Hmm!

Uh.

Yay, there, all tidy-tidy!

And we recycled Ortus' boxes, too.

They're being used for different things now!

Yes, very good, Wussywat. Well remembered. You ARE a clever cat!

Hahaha! Prr.

Bye-bye.
