Have you ever wondered why cats lick their own fur?

2014-02-19T18:51:00.004+00:00

Well let’s take you to the dawn of time, where many cats roamed the land freely and saw many civilisations come and go. They were wild, fearsome creatures back then, before mankind targeted the kitty civilisation and took them then enslaved them. The Cats nowadays are used to being enslaved, they have become from fearless warriors to timid creatures, forced to lie in the corner all day, defenceless from their masters. Now, we realise that they annoyingly lick their bodies, leaving patches of damp fur but alas! Nothing can persuade them to put an end to this nasty habit. This leaves to a question, ‘Why do cats lick their fur?’ Let’s go back, recall the events and find the truth for this ever repeating question...

A long time ago, before cavemen and after dinosaurs, a small striped tabby was bored. His mother and father were busy collecting corn and potatoes that they couldn’t find time for him. He was the youngest in the pack and his other siblings were on duty, guarding the treasure or on the lookout for enemy dogs. He sat down on a tree and wondered to himself. What should he do? He wasn’t allowed anywhere near to the dog’s pack which was a shame because he really thought that that was an excellent place to be when you’re bored. Sacks of food, pipes to explore and many trees that he would like to climb. There were of course, many nicer, better and more of them in the cat pack but how fun would it is if he could explore an enemy territory? He loved risks!

He leant back on the tree until he felt a drip on his neck. He looked up. There, on the tree, sat a small bird, eating berries very messily. The tabby hissed until he realised who the bird was. It was his friend, Purple Wing.
‘Hey Tabb.’ Waved Purple Wing, ‘Sorry about that!’

Tabby smiled, for he found this really amusing. He waved a paw up to his feathered friend and leapt up into the tree. He found a place that would bear his weight and sat on it. It felt wonderful. Purple wings gulped down a ripe berry.
‘Hi! Why are you here? Asked Tabby.

Purple feather wiped his mouth with his wing and didn’t answer. Sprays of red berry juice dripped down onto Tabby’s coat. He snorted in disgust. He didn’t like his fur to be wet and sticky. He clawed at the patch of wet fur in annoyance. He didn’t like the feel of it on his fur. Purple realised what had happened and started pecking on it. It seemed to work and Tabby joined in. He licked and licked and licked until it was all gone. Amazed of how well it worked, Tabby started to lick himself whenever he felt dirty. It became a massive habit and he started avoiding baths. Soon, everyone in the village started picking up this strange habit and it has adapted into the cats daily lifestyle till now.

Review of The wishing chair collection by Enid Blyton

2014-02-17T02:32:00.003+00:00

‘The wishing chair collection’ is full of enchanting tales and adventures with Mollie, Peter, the pixie Chinkey and of course, you mustn’t forget, the dear, old wishing chair. Together, they journey through exciting worlds and lands you’ve never heard of in your entire life!

Mollie and Peter are two siblings that live with their mother in a cosy house. It was their mother’s birthday soon so they went out to the antique store to buy her a gift. Her mother did like old things! They were about to get a vase when they saw a chair in the corner. They sat on it and... How absurd! It flew up into the sky and before they knew it, they were safely back home, and in one piece too!

The first adventure was where Chinkey comes in. The Wishing chair, for that was its name; started growing is red feathered wings again! How they longed for an adventure! The chair took them to a giant’s castle and the rescued the pixie from the dark, smelly dungeons.

I would defiantly recommend the book because it is full of such delightful stories! It would inspire any one to be a writer! It gave me endless hours of adventure when I was just sitting comfortably on a pillow in a small house in England! Also, I would recommend it because it is impossibly un put-down able! This was a book I loved from all the books I have read! It was amazing!

3rd and final day at apple camp!

So, this was the last day at the apple camp. We showed everyone at the apple camp our movies. Mine was definitely the shortest. Today my father was the one that sent me to the apple camp instead of his friend.

I got a certificate and they spelt my second name wrong! (my name sounded quite strange with that spelling mistake!) Plus, we have all been given a band with a USB stick inside with our movie and we also got a pin badge of an iphone or an ipad. I've got an iphone. I loved going to the apple camp! It was fantastic!

At the apple camp, I put the music i made into the movie and it fitted just perfectly! I edited the movie on imovie (i think) and I was very pleased with how it came out. I could've done better I suppose, and longer but I didn't have time and the battery was low so I had to act fast. Maybe stop motion would've been better I guess. I think I might continue to make movies and tutorials even maybe some brief tips from time to time. I have time, I'll post it up here (on the blog).

Today we went to the Apple store at the Touchwood shopping centre in Solihull.

We were learning how to make movies. All of the children were supposed to create a story on a storyboard, make some music and film your own video.

My dad went to work so his friend had to accompany me instead.
His friend had two sons and the oldest made a story called the ' Crazy caveman' while I made a story called 'Bubble-Zillah'. The youngest child was too young to be in the camp so he just played on the mac available for everyone for free.

We had the embroidery badges and the normal ones with a t-shirt and a name tag and amazingly, they gave us free ear phones to keep! It was just fantastic!

I'm going again today with a memory stick in my hands of the movie!
Can't wait for tomorrow!

Cat facts

2013-08-04T17:37:00.000+01:00

I've always wanted a cat, ever since i first saw one. I've been training myself by researching different ways to keep a cat easily. I have learnt a way of how to toilet train a cat and I told my friends. They were even more surprised about it than me, since I knew that cats are very intelligent creatures and are great hunters with sharp claws and piercing teeth. These are some facts I have learnt from a variety of books, web sights, Youtube videos or from an occasional talk:

One female cat can give about one hundred kittens a life time.

During the ancient Egyptian period, cats were considered so valuable that the penalty for killing one was death!

Cats don't just purr for pleasure, they also purr for pain. By the lack of taste buds, a cat cannot taste sweet things.

Just like our finger prints, a cats nose pad has an unique pattern that is different to other cats.

Cats can make about one hundred different sounds while dogs can make 10.

Cats are born with blue eyes and change at approximately 12 weeks of age.

A group of cars is called a 'clowder'. A cat has usually 12 whiskers on a cheek.

Pizza!!!

2013-07-18T20:01:00.004+01:00

At school we have this competition called the 'token box challenge'.
In this challenge we will have to behave our best and we shall earn tokens.
Miss behave we shall lose tokens.

The steps are simple:

Step 1: someone miss behave so he/she get a warning
Step 2: he/she does it again so he/she get another warning
Step 3: If He/she continue to miss behave so we have a token off our token jar
step 4: If he/she continue to miss behave we have another token of us
step 5: If He /she continue to miss behave he/she shall be on a red card and parents are called
step 6: If someone get a red card plus 4 days in a week, they shall be temporary excluded from school
However, if the problem is serious, the person who done it shall make us have 2 tokens off and 'maby' be excluded but parents are certainly called.

The great news is that we have one the prize... Pizza for lunch! There will also be ice cream and maby be garlick bread.

We have been told this today and the big day is tomorrow! Unfortunately, the 'big day' is in Ramadan and I want to fast, but luckily, it is not compulsory for children to fast so I don't need to for a day.

I can't wait!

Light bulbs

2013-07-17T18:55:00.003+01:00

Have you ever stopped and wondered about the 'light bulb' ?

Light bulbs were an incredible invention which completely changed the world. Thomas Alva Edison (known as Thomas Edinon), born on the February 11th 1847, invented the light bulb. Before our easy life, people used candles instead of light bulbs and we might of wondered about how life was like then. And like all inventions, they changed over time.

Edison's Bulb

Modern bulb

Edison was born in Milan and he grew up in Port Huron.

In his school, his mind often wondered to far off places and is teacher was overheard calling him 'addled' (what ever that means!) Soon, his mother home-schooled him. Much of his education came from reading.

When his family moved to Port Huron, Edison started to sell sweets and newspaper on trains running from Port Huron to Detroit.

By selling newspapers, he realised his talents and obtained himself to be a business man.
