Wussywat the Clumsy Cat

Épisode 1 - Wet

22 juin 2015

Wussywat discovers rain and how to stay dry. A rainy day can be lots of fun. Wussywat splashes in puddles and slips and slides round the garden but soon realises he needs to stay dry. He tries various different ways, including hiding in a wellington boot, under a cabbage and even inside Ortus's shell. Wussywat eventually finds an umbrella with help from Ortus, but when he finally manages to get it open the wind blows it away. What will Wussywat do now? How about making an umbrella with a cabbage leaf and a proppy-up-stick? What a good idea. What a clever cat!

Épisode 2 - Kite

23 juin 2015

Wussywat discovers kites and the wind. He plays football while Ird hangs out her washing on the line. Duckadile takes a bath in a tin tub and Ortus flies a kite. Wussywat kicks the muddy ball into Ird's clean tea towel, and she has to wash it again. He also plays with Ortus's kite but lets go and gets it caught in a tree. Wussywat rescues the kite but knocks Ird's tea towel into a muddy puddle again. Wussywat washes it in Duckadile's bathtub and dries it by attaching it to Ortus's kite. What a clever cat!

Épisode 3 - Jumpy

24 juin 2015

Wussywat discovers a frog in the garden and learns how to jump, although he can't jump as far as Oggy and Duckadile. A frog leaps from a mossy stone, sails through the air and lands clinging to a tall reed. Wussywat wants to try! He clambers onto the stone but slides right off. He watches the frog leap from the reed far across the garden. Wussywat climbs the reed to copy the frog, but he slides down it. The frog lands on Ortus's shell and leaps off. Wussywat copies it, puts his hands on Ortus's shell and leaps over him. Now he can jump far and he's found a new game to play - leapfrog! What a clever cat.

Épisode 4 - Catch

25 juin 2015

Wussywat discovers apples and crabs then learns how to catch. Jinja is catching crabs, and Wussywat wants a go but gets in a bit of a muddle. Ird needs help collecting her apples out of the tree, but Wussywat can't catch them without getting bopped on the head. He tries to catch Duckadile's squirt too but gets soaked. Oggy wants to play catch with Wussywat but sends him flying into Jinja, sending his bucket and crabbing net flying! The net and crab bucket gives Wussywat an idea, and with Jinja's help he uses them to catch the apples while Ird shakes them from her tree. Wussywat shares them out with his friends. What a clever cat!

Épisode 5 - Shiny

26 juin 2015

Wussywat learns about reflections and shiny things. He spots a fly glittering in the sun, chases it and runs into Duckadile, rolling together into a shiny bucket. They look in the bucket, concerned that their reflections are trapped inside. Wrestling with it, they fling it away onto Ortus's head. Ortus uses a shiny pocket watch to explain reflections, but Py steals it, spinning Wussywat around and into Ortus. Ird tries to rescue the pocket watch, but it drops into the vegetable patch - lost! Wussywat realises he only has to look for a shiny object and quickly finds it again. What a clever cat!

Épisode 6 - Egg

29 juin 2015

While Wussywat is playing catch with Oggy, he encounters a funny shaped stone which turns out to be a roly-poly egg. When he accidentally makes it crack open, a very fuzzy little chick pops out demanding food. Wussywat tries to figure out what he likes to eat, but Ird feeds him cabbage, which makes him cry. How will Wussywat stop it? He has the bright idea to use feathers to give him the tiggle-giggles and make him happy again. Mum hears the laughing and comes to take him home safely. What a happy chick. What a clever cat!

Épisode 7 - Glue

30 juin 2015

While Ortus is clearing out the shed Wussywat and Jinja find a scooter and a skateboard to race with. But the scooter is broken, so Ird helps Wussywat fix it with some glue. Jinja is keen to get the race going, so Wussywat tears off to join him but doesn't wait for the glue to dry. He, Jinja and Duckadile all get sticky-stuck while racing against each other and crash into the shed. Wussywat resolves the situation by building a super-dooper-scooter that everyone can race on, together. More importantly, he remembers to wait for the glue to dry this time. What a clever cat!

Épisode 8 - Sand

1 juillet 2015

Ird has built a sandcastle and flits off to collect decorations for it. Wussywat sticks a leaf on top and it collapses. He has to fix it! Wussywat fills his bucket with sand, turns it upside down in mid-air and the wind blows it away. He fills the bucket again, upturns it next to Oggy's hole and it slides straight down. Duckadile bounds in and squirts water everywhere! Wussywat slips and lands in the soggy, sticky sand. It gives him an idea. He fills his bucket with the sticky, wet sand and turns it upside down. It sticks together at last! He rebuilds the sandcastle with all his friends and when Ird returns she's none the wiser. What a clever cat!

Épisode 9 - Pop

2 juillet 2015

Eli teaches Wussywat how to blow bubbles. But he blows them straight into Oggy's mouth! He tries again near the pond but Duckadile and the crabs take great pleasure in popping them. He tries spinning round in a circle blowing bubbles, but they all still pop! Wussywat feels very dizzy and falls flat on his back. Duckadile shows Wussywat an un-popped bubble floating on the Pond. Wussywat has an idea and asks him to squirt the crabs away so his bubbles stay un-popped on the pond! What a clever cat!

Épisode 10 - Sporty

3 juillet 2015

It's Sports Day in the garden. They start with a sack race, Wussywat slips in a Duckadile squirt and slides into a heap, last. In the egg and spoon race, Wussywat trips, tumbling into various breakdance moves. Ortus plods past to win. The discus next and Wussywat tries throwing it but can't let go and spins into a jig to let Duckadile win. Oh dear, Wussywat thinks he's no good at any sport, until he combines the nifty moves he's been displaying in defeat as an impressive dance routine to win - the freestyle breakdance event. What a clever cat!

Épisode 11 - Cake

6 juillet 2015

It's Ortus's birthday and Wussywat finds his picnic surprise: a selection of cakes, jelly and fruit has been laid out. Duckadile squirts him and he slides into the birthday cake, ruining it. They try to help Ird make a new one, but end up wearing the ingredients. Ird asks Wussywat to take a new cake to the picnic blanket, but he trips and it lands on his head. Wussywat looks around and realises the only unsquashed item left is a bowl of fruit, so he builds a new healthier cake out of this. What a clever cat!

Épisode 12 - Hot

7 juillet 2015

Wussywat has made himself really hot and sweaty chasing Duckadile round the garden. They both need to cool off so Duckadile squirts him and jumps in the pond. But Wussywat doesn't want to be wet to stay cool. Ird shows him a flapping dance but this makes him hotter. Ortus disappears inside his shady shell, so Wussywat shades in a flowerpot only to get stuck inside. Wussywat then crashes into a tall sunflower, causing one of the leaves to float down and cover his head. How about using that like a fan? What a good idea. What a clever cat!

Épisode 13 - Box

8 juillet 2015

Wussywat finds a strange box in the garden and wants to know what's inside, but it's too big for him to reach the handle. He tries to get his friends to help him open it but most of them are asleep, and each time he tries to wake them he gets in a scrape. Eventually he winds up in the veggie patch amongst the vegetables. Luckily Egnog is awake and he helps Wussywat open the box with some neat acrobatics and the bouncy pumpkins. The box turns out to be a music box and its beautiful soothing tunes wake his appreciative friends. What a clever cat!

Épisode 14 - Lost

9 juillet 2015

Wussywat discovers trekking and how to follow a map. Wussywat, Duckadile and Ortus are off on a hike. Ortus and Duckadile check the map with Ortus's compass. Wussywat tries to see but falls into it, making it blow away. Ird agrees to show them the way but when they get there, they can't get back because Wussywat flicks the compass into a tree. Wussywat spots some purple tracks, which they follow to find their way back. They find the tracks are Oggy's and he's eaten all of Ird's berries. Py brings the compass back as the map floats in. They didn't need either of them in the end. What a clever cat!

Épisode 15 - Squeak

10 juillet 2015

Wussywat discovers exploring and how to use binoculars. Duckadile's squeak is missing so Wussywat resolves to find it. He hears a squeak and catches it with a net, but it is Oggy's toy. He tears around the garden with Wussywat in tow. Wussywat hears a squeak from the flowers and pounces onto Ortus, who's polishing his binoculars. Wussywat spots a snail on the pond with the squeak using the binoculars. They use the net and rescue the trapped snail. Wussywat returns the squeak to Duckadile. What a clever cat!

Épisode 16 - Sorted

13 juillet 2015

Wussywat discovers collections and learns how to separate things. Ird shows Py her shiny button collection. Meanwhile, Wussywat finds a shiny sieve. Ortus needs it to help him dig up potatoes. He shows Wussywat how to use it to separate the potatoes from the mud. Wussywat puts a big muddy clod in the sieve and gives it a very big shake; a potato flies through the air and knocks Ird's buttons, which scatter in the mud. Poor Ird! Will she ever get her button collection back? Wussywat has an idea... If he uses the sieve, he can separate the buttons from the mud and find the potatoes too. What a clever cat!

Épisode 17 - Play

14 juillet 2015

Wussywat discovers adventure play and how to make a playground. When Eli's picture of her most favourite thing ever gets blown up into a tree, Wussywat tries to swing up to fetch it. But the picture is blown away again to the shed, where it is caught in the weathervane. Wussywat tries to climb up a ladder but it tips onto a log to make a see-saw. Eli jumps on to it and catapults over the shed to collect her picture, then slides down the roof to finally show it to everyone. It's an adventure playground. Sadly, she's never been to one. Wussywat realises they have everything they need to make one for her in the garden! Eli is delighted. What a clever cat!

Épisode 18 - Wheels

15 juillet 2015

Wussywat discovers wheels and how to move heavy things. Wussywat is pretending to be a train, but he finds a pile of plant pots in the middle of the garden that are in his way. He wants to move them. He tries lifting them and rolling them, and even gets help from Oggy, but neither of them can decide which way to push or pull. Inspired by the big wheelbarrow, Wussywat borrows Duckadile's roller skates and makes some mini wheelbarrows to move all of the plant pots out of the way one by one. What a clever cat!

Épisode 19 - Muddy

16 juillet 2015

Wussywat discovers mud and how to sculpt with it. Wussywat tries to help Oggy find his toy but keeps slipping and falling into the mud. He and Duckadile enjoy the fun of printing and squidging in mud, but Oggy is still downhearted, missing his toy. This sad state of affairs is reversed when Wussywat falls and scrambles, accidentally squidging and patting the mud into shapes that look a bit like... Oggy! Wussywat and friends make little sculptures of themselves next, and Oggy is delighted when he uncovers his real lost toy from the mud, complete with muddy squeak. What a clever cat!

Épisode 20 - Hollow

17 juillet 2015

Wussywat discovers hollow things and the sounds they make. Wussywat can't find Egnog. He begins a search in the hedge, but he only finds Ida in an empty, echoey watering can. A strange echoey sound leads him to an upturned wheelbarrow, where he's surprised to find Duckadile. Ortus then offers his loud haler, but Wussywat has never used one before. He's startled when his voice comes out so loud he falls over! Then Wussywat hears a familiar voice. It's echoey so it must be coming from somewhere hollow. Wussywat finds an empty log and there inside is Egnog. What a clever cat!

Épisode 21 - Tweet

20 juillet 2015

Wussywat wants to copy Ird's dawn chorus. He tries to tweet but manages to blow Ird out of her tree instead. An attempt to copy sleepy Ortus's snorey whistle just causes a pile-up! Fortunately Duckadile is on hand with his favourite pinwheel to teach Wussywat how to blow gently. A squirt from Duckadile turns the blow into a squirble and shows Wussywat that the key to whistling is not to try too hard. When the birdies turn up and join in, the gang are treated to a tweety chorus and Wussywat makes some nice new friends. What a clever cat.

Épisode 22 - Rainbow

21 juillet 2015

After a rain shower, Wussywat sees a rainbow up in the sky. He loves rainbows and wonders where they start. He sets off to find where it begins. Is it under Ortus's red picnic blanket, beyond the clothesline or hiding inside Duckadile's yellow rubber ring? It's in none of these places. As the rainbow fades, Wussywat decides to make a new rainbow using different coloured objects from around the garden hung from the washing line. A permanent 'Wussy-Bow'. What a clever cat.

Épisode 23 - Games

22 juillet 2015

Wussywat disrupts Ortus and Ird playing snakes and ladders, knocking counters everywhere, so Ird tells him to play elsewhere. Wussywat and Duckadile play leap froggy but they leap onto the board game. Wussywat teaches Duckadile how to play 'I-Spy' but Duckadile spies a hosepipe. It flings him everywhere before spurting him into the middle of Ortus and Ird, soaking their game board. Wussywat realises he can arrange canes, hosepipe, rope and a ladder in the clearing to make a giant snakes and ladders game. What a clever cat.

Épisode 24 - Gentle

23 juillet 2015

Wussywat finds a cocoon hanging from a tree and prods it, bopping himself on the nose. He must learn to be gentle! Duckadile lines up his fish tank figurines, but Wussywat knocks them over like dominoes. Wussywat promises to be gentle with Ortus's gold swimming medal, but he grips it too tightly and it flies into the air. Ortus catches it and hastily hides it in his shell. The cocoon starts to shake. A butterfly pops out and lands on Wussywat's nose. Everyone holds their breath, but Wussywat stands extra still. He has finally realised how to be gentle and that's to 'not touch at all'. What a clever cat.

Épisode 25 - Small

24 juillet 2015

Wussywat is too small to see the top of a tall sunflower. He tries to copy a snail climbing up the stem, but it just pings him across the garden. Wussywat climbs Ortus's shell and slips straight off! Duckadile suggests Wussywat stands on the spade staked in the ground, but it sinks straight down into the earth! Wussywat stands on Oggy's ball, but it rolls away and he crashes into a tree. Eli clomps past on her old-fashioned stilts. They look like flowerpots with string for handles. Wussywat places some flowerpots under the sunflower and uses them as stairs. He is tall at last and can see the sunflower in full bloom! What a clever cat.

Épisode 26 - Hidden

27 juillet 2015

It's hide-and-seek time in the garden, and Wussywat just can't seem to find a good place to hide from Oggy, who is playing the seeker. Wussywat tries hiding behind his own paws and in several good places that are already occupied by his friends, such as the shadow, the rockery and a pile of logs. But he doesn't see where his friends are hiding until he bumps into them. At last Wussywat realises what he needs is a hiding place that looks a little bit like him. What a clever cat!

Épisode 27 - Snow

It's a cold snowy day in the garden, so Ird suggests doing some exercises to keep warm. When more snow starts to fall, Ird and Ortus make a snowman, while Duckadile and Wussywat go sledging. But then, Wussywat crashes into Ortus and Ird's snowman! Together, they try rebuild it by rolling new snowballs - but they all roll in different directions and end up far away! How can they get the snowballs together before they melt? Wussywat has the idea to use the sledges, and soon the snowman is whole again, bigger and better than before. What a clever cat!

Épisode 28 - Cosy

It's a wintery day in the garden and everyone is cold. Duckadile has made a cosy den, but it's a bit squishy. Luckily, Ortus has a new hobby - knitting! As Ortus knits to try and keep everyone cosy, Wussywat gets tangled in his wool, and soon Duckadile's den is completely dismantled! How will they stay cosy now? Wussywat rescues some stray twigs and with the help of a woolly blanket and a tree, he makes a den with enough space for everyone to squeeze in... and it's very cosy too! What a clever cat.
