=The Thirsty Cat And Turtle Left In The Desert=

===On the hottest day Patch the cat and the turtle were traveling over seas when they were in a plane accident, all the passengers escaped, but Patch and De were left in the desert without them knowing.When they got out of the wreckage they moved around to find a shady spot because it was so hot, but then they discovered an enormous life saving oasis. Patch and De went down near the oasis to lie down in the shade.Then a Florissant bird came flying out of the tree named Floppy with an unusual teaspoon attached to its claws, he swooped down near the water and picked up a load of water to take over to Patch and De. When Floppy carried on with his journey he looked behind him and saw a mouth watering wall of wet mushroom and water dripping of them. They wondered over top the mushrooms to lick all the water off them because it was so hot they could hardly breath. When Patch and De wondered of Floppy must have flown away to find help because the animal service flew near the oasis to save Patch and De and the funny thing was that Floppy was sitting in the back of the helicopter. When they were flying over one of the countries the helicopter ran out of gas and they helicopter crashed on Mars.When the pilot got out of the helicopter he said “ dam, they got away again the little eggs." After one week they found Patch and De trying to run away from the some people but Patch and De failed. When the people took them back to their house they seen if they had been tagged with one of their machines and they had been tagged back in America. So they all sat down in a big room and decided were they should send them and one of them said we will send them to New Zealand. So they rang up John Key and asked him if they could travel Patch and De over to N.Z John Key said “sure.” When they sent them to New Zealand John Key and the SPCA lady Susan waited at the Airport for the animals to arrive. When the animals arrived in a special plane John Key and Susan took Patch and De back to the SPCA and John key went back to parliament. Then it was a long wait for Susan to try give the animals away and this one person named Wendy drove over to the SPCA to find a cat and the best cat that she thought was there is Patch. Wendy was so happy that she seen patch and she was playing with patch in the hallway and she was so happy to take patch home but she also wanted a turtle to take home for her kids so Susan suggested to Wendy “ why don’t you take De home, he is lovely and funny “ so Wendy took them home. One week later Susan went to Wendy's house to check on Patch and De and they were going very well so Wendy offered Susan a coffee and they sat down and laughed around and watch Patch go crazy over his ball. A few months later Wendy reported to the SPCA that Patch had gone missing so the SPCA put out a search team to find Patch. Two days later Patch had been found in a drain so the Susan jumped down the drain to get Patch but she realized that she couldn’t get back out of the drain so she called for help and this old lady seen her lying in the drain so she went to the SPCA and told them the story. So the SPCA went back to the drain were her friends went and got a ladder and put it down to the bottom of the drain and they helped her up. When they got up out of the drain they all went back to the SPCA shelter and all had a coffee. A few years later they recovered the shock and they were fine after it. Patch and De are doing fine and Patch is so old that he can hardly walk around the house and De is so happy swimming around in his tank with his new friend Flab Jones.===
