My name is Ann. I love animals. I have got a pet at home. His name is Zoard. He is two
years old. He’s small and his hair is brown. He’s got big eyes and a small black nose. He’s
got big ears and long teeth.
He likes eating. He eats seeds but his favourites are nuts. I buy his food at the pet shop.
He lives in a cage and he’s got a lot of toys.
I feed him every day and put clean water in his water bowl. On Saturday afternoons I
clean his cage and put fresh water into it. I love him and I think he is one of my best
friends.
