My famous person slide

 

Hello my name is azna and im here to talk about why pets are such an important part of my whanu:

do you like Pets? Well imagine not having a pet?  Who would you cuddle and give  aroha too? Who would keep you fit? Who would eat all your food scraps? Pets are important because  they can be your friend.

Joy aroha

If You don't have a friend  you  have a Pet. Ok well  My pet  kowhai who is a cat, he Gives Me Aroha And joy, like other pets should. I love Kowhai. because he has a fluffy belly and he rolls around purring, he has the loudest purr.  

Eat food 

When I drop food On the ground my Cat  Kohwai Will eat It all up. What other pets clean up your food scraps? Dogs, pigs, sheep, horses, all these pets are great because it means you don’t waste food.

Also pets  are good For When you get Cold

You Can get wool from Your Sheep,  they also

provide food like chickens, they  give you 

eggs, cows give you milk and aslo...    

Ride 

When you don't have a car you can Ride Your horse or a camel, elephants, tigers And Cheetahs. 

sence

Some pets like Dogs can also Sense Your Feelings if  you are Going to have a Heart Attack or break Down.   Did you know that puppies are trained to be guide dogs and they also wear orange and red harnesses  on their back? They help when there are blind people and they walk them around well crossing the road .

Exercise

Another reason pets are great is pets can give you exercise When you walk  them Around and give Them Food and water that  gives you exercise. And When you're lonely they can be a friend to Play With.

They also have very beautiful wings  and     Feathers like parrots and pukekos, Hummingbirds and peacocks and Woodpeckers.

They also keep you calm when you're scared and when you're scared to go to the toilet they will follow you to the bathroom. Also When you are asleep they will jump by you and sleep by you. 

Pets also teach kids responsibility and compassion . They also look after children when people come into your home without you knowing.

They also keep us healthy, and relieve stress. They also look after the author's pets like keeping the sheep in the barn or keeping them safe and  keeping the horses in the barn can give your pets exercise  and keeping the hens in their nest boxes. 

Thank you for listening to my speech about why pets are such an important part of my whanau and that's why you should buy a pet.
