Lately in class there was a cool cat, he went around picking up rubbish at the School here is a report on R2.
R2 The Amazing CatOn the West Coast of NZ in Dobson, a small town near Greymouth, a local cat has been a tidy kiwi.
R2 a fat, tabby grey and white cat has been going to Paparoa Range School every Friday and Saturday night to pick up all the old rappers dropped by the children.
Stormy nights are the main time that R2 picks up rubbish. R2 gets in under the verandah where we have our sausage sizzle and picks up the rubbish which is mainly ice block wrappers, straws, spoons and plastic snaplock bags. R2 gets the rubbish with his mouth and his paws.
After R2 has picked up the rubbish he takes it home and drops it next to the cat flap. He then meows a really high pitched meow to get his owner Kim to see his work. R2 gets rubbish from the school to empress Kim and get praise. But Kim gets annoyed with him because he rips up the carpet and drops rubbish all over the house.
Kim adopted R2 from Taylorville at 5 and a half weeks old and now R2, is 9 years old. When Kim first got R2 he use to steal the clothes off the neighbors clothes line. If anyone lives in Dobson and your clothes go missing you’ll know who took it…
