@ Drama In The Sky Petula begins her experience of Sky! Drama In The Sky The sky is not opening up, but it sure seems that way, with the brilliant flashes of light and the loud crack as the air expands. Get indoors as fast as you can, and keep your pets safe as not many will enjoy the dramatic storm taking place outside.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Pauly.
Petula shook paws with Pauly the Panda. They both received one silver mole!
White Daisy Egg My pets are in awe of these beautiful eggs—they would love to try to paint their own one year. Easter and spring are times of joy as the earth awakens, plants are pushing forth from the soil, and the days are becoming warmer. Many baby animals are born in the spring, and life is burgeoning. May these eggs bring you joy and be a reminder of the earth renewing itself.
Fluffy Clouds Looking like a whipped-up marshmallow spread in the sky. I propose a day of relaxing, we will find a field and lay down on some grass and look up at the clouds and play a game about what they look like to each of us.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Choose a name.
Petula shook paws with Choose a name the Tabby Cat. They both received one silver mole!

@ Rainbow Over The Grey Sea The strongest winds in the solar system are on Saturn where they reach speeds of over 1,100mph. Rainbow Over The Grey Sea A spectacular rainbow just touching the land. Rainbows and hummingbirds (which are like tiny flying rainbows) bring smiles to all who view them. The science behind what makes a rainbow is interesting but it will never be as much fun as the stories you can dream up to explain that bow of colours in the sky.
While experiencing the Elements, you met get-a-job-bring-me-a-mouse-and-a-20.
Petula shook paws with get-a-job-bring-me-a-mouse-and-a-20 the Grey Playful Kitten. They both received one silver mole!
get-a-job-bring-me-a-mouse-and-a-20 and you found 5 Travel Tokens!
@ Balloons In The Sky In Greek mythology, the Anemoi were four wind gods, causing wind from the four compass points. Balloons In The Sky Some like balloons a lot—some, however, do not. Balloons can be colourful, or have fun saying on them—if you choose to enjoy balloons, please dispose of them safely after, so they don’t pollute the water and land and cause distress for our animal friends.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Shadow.
Petula shook paws with Shadow the Black Lovable Labrador. They both received one silver mole!
@ Hide And Seek Moon In Greek mythology, the Anemoi were four wind gods, causing wind from the four compass points. Hide And Seek Moon The moon is playing a game—it has enlisted the help of the clouds, showing its face one moment, then hiding behind a passing cloud.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Kitkat.
Petula shook paws with Kitkat the Ragdoll Kitten. They both received one silver mole!
@ The Milky Way "Today's trivia question, Heleena!" announced Petula. "When were the first ever windmills built?" "Oh, goodness! I've no idea, Petula, but I imagine they're pretty old!" responded Heleena. Petula grinned. "Windmills have been in use since 200 BCE. They were first developed in Persia and China." The Milky Way The Milky Way Galaxy, with spiral arms outstretched, moves through the cosmos devouring other galaxies—and far into the future, the Milky Way Galaxy will itself be devoured. From our viewpoint on Earth, it appears as a milky band—millions of stars lighting up the deep dark of space.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Heleena.
Petula shook paws with Heleena the Fox’Maid (Ariilina) . They both received one silver mole!
@ Boeing Stearman Biplane "It says in our tour guide that 96.5% of water on Earth is in our oceans, covering 71% of the surface of our planet," remarked Petula. "That's amazing, Petula!" responded Boycee. Boeing Stearman Biplane The Boeing-Stearman Modle 75 Biplane, radial engine, built during the 1930s-40s and at least 10,626 were built in the U.S.A. This plane was a military trainer aircraft.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Boycee.
Petula shook paws with Boycee the Screech Owl. They both received one silver mole!
@ The Silver Path "At the time of the Great Fire of London in 1666 there was no fire brigade such as we have today. Men from the Navy used gunpowder to blow up houses in the path of the fire to halt its spread!" "Goodness me, Smokey! Drastic, or what? Did it work?" queried Petula. "It sort of worked—eventually! But it took some days, during which time a large part of London had been destroyed." The Silver Path A ribbon of moonlight on a calm sea, a path to follow. What lies beyond the horizon? will you take a chance?
While experiencing the Elements, you met Smokey.
Petula shook paws with Smokey the Midnight Happy Dragon. They both received one silver mole!
@ Classic Biplane CB-1 The doldrums is a wind-free area around the equator where sailing ships used to get stuck for weeks. Hence the phrase ‘in the doldrums’. Classic Biplane CB-1 This classic Hatz CB-1, 1960s biplane is built from a kit. The CB-1 is a tandem dual-control two-seat biplane with fixed tailwheel landing gear and is powered by a variety of nose-mounted small engines. Steel tube fuselage and tail with wooden wings.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Dave.
Petula shook paws with Dave the Playful Penguin. They both received one silver mole!
@ Sunglasses Everyone The strongest winds in the solar system are on Saturn where they reach speeds of over 1,100mph. Sunglasses Everyone The sun is so bright today that you really need to wear sunglasses if you hope to avoid a headache and eye strain. If there is not enough light, you cannot see—too much light, and you cannot see. The perfect amount of sun, just like the perfect porridge, is what we want.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Midnight Blue.
Petula shook paws with Midnight Blue the Midnight Happy Dragon. They both received one silver mole!
@ A Mystical Place "Art galleries can be hard on the paws, can't they, blue sunshine?" remarked Petula. "Just think of the café and gift shop at the end, Petula! That keeps me going!" A Mystical Place A small craft sets off on an adventure; the pets are excited and wonder what they will see. Passing through a bank of clouds, the sea and sky change. This is not any place the pets have ever seen before. Were they magically transported to a new planet. Is this a dream, are they all still at home tucked up in bed. They gaze in wonder at the stars that shine brighter and closer than any stars they are used to; the water is as still as a sheet of glass, the pets want to reach down and grab a star reflection, so solid do they appear.
While experiencing the Elements, you met blue sunshine.
Petula shook paws with blue sunshine the Midnight Happy Dragon. They both received one silver mole!
@ When Sky And Water Become As One "The Great Fire of London in 1666 gave rise to many changes, you know, Petula," remarked Hope. "Many streets were widened across London. New building regulations meant that instead of wood, brick had to be used for all houses." When Sky And Water Become As One It is easy to see how one could lose their way when out at sea when the sky and sea are the same colour and there are no other guiding landmarks. Beautiful and peaceful to look upon from a safe and sure place.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Hope.
Petula shook paws with Hope the Lilac Daydream Unicorn. They both received one silver mole!
@ Pastel Pink Sky "What two elements is water made up of, Petula?" asked Belle. "That's easy: hydrogen and oxygen!" "Correct, Petula! Two parts of hydrogen to one part oxygen, making the element name H2O." Pastel Pink Sky When the sky is filled with clouds and depending on the time of day you can get the most spectacular colour displays, from light pastels to vibrant hues. Ever-changing and ever-fascinating, always look up or you may miss a most marvellous show.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Belle.
Petula shook paws with Belle the Blue Polar Bear. They both received one silver mole!

@ Soaring Under Clouds Oh look ... you won a pet! Soaring Under Clouds A single plane, the sky, and clouds, a peaceful scene. Do you wonder where the plane is headed? Will the plane go through the clouds and will it encounter some raindrops. Where will the plane eventually land?
While experiencing the Elements, you met Lucifer.
Petula shook paws with Lucifer the Green Happy Dragon. They both received one silver mole!
@ Touch The Moon Air pollution is measured with the Air Quality Index, or AQI. The lower the AQI, the cleaner the air is. However, if you are outside when the AQI is over 100, it’s about the same as breathing in exhaust from a car all day! Things that cause poor air quality are forest fires and cities with lots of car traffic. If the AQI is higher than 100 you shouldn’t spend too much time outside. Touch The Moon If you walk across that field and pass that gnarled tree and continue to walk just a bit further, I bet you could touch the moon, maybe even carry it home in a basket—though then what would others do when wanting some moonlight.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Berry.
Petula shook paws with Berry the Strawberry Milky Moo Cow. They both received one silver mole!
@ Winging Home "The Great Fire of 1666 started in London, on Pudding Lane, in a baker's shop. The baker believed he had put the fire out but in the middle of the night the fire grew and his house was in flames. Pudding Lane is still there today. If you want to visit it, Monument is the nearest tube station. The place where the fire started is also marked by a monument topped by a fiery gold ornament," said Petula. "It makes it sound like it's the only monument in London, Petula!" chuckled Mrs. Dylan. Winging Home At the end of the day—it is time to wing homeward, flying past the orange sky, the reflections in the water below follow along, with no choice of their own.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Mrs. Dylan.
Petula shook paws with Mrs. Dylan the Arctic Feisty Fox. They both received one silver mole!
@ Heron On A Misty Mornings "After the Great Fire of London in 1666, businessmen started house insurance companies. They had to be careful because if another fire started they could lose a lot of money. To get around this, they ended up hiring their own fire brigade just in case a fire did start! This is when the first brigade started." "It sounds a bit hit-and-miss, Petula!" remarked Kaplan. "It was, yes. Any of the insurance companies' fire brigades weren't allowed to put out a fire of a house which was insured with a different company!" "They'd just watch it burn, then, Petula?" "Well—I guess that was how it went, Kaplan, yes!" Heron On A Misty Mornings Do you like fog and mist? Sounds can be distorted so this solitary heron is listening carefully as it walks along a mist-covered shore, searching for breakfast.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Kaplan.
Petula shook paws with Kaplan the Teal tiger. They both received one silver mole!
@ Fun Stars Petula was very happy to meet Frank here! They both swapped tales of their experiences of their tour of the art gallery wings so far! Fun Stars Such a delightful design for the wall of a young pet's room, or any pet that loves stars and cute things.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Frank.
Petula shook paws with Frank the Gibby. They both received one silver mole!
@ Substantial Cloud “Oh hello, Petula!” cried swinger. “Didn’t we bump into each other at the Fiat racetrack in Turin last July? This is quite the change of scene, isn't it!” Substantial Cloud Have you ever seen such a substantial cloud, a cloud with so much personality it almost seems as if it could talk to you? What would it say if it began to speak? Would it tell you where it formed, what it had seen as it travelled across the great blue sky, would it be able to say where it was headed and what it would do when it arrived?
While experiencing the Elements, you met swinger.
Petula shook paws with swinger the Brown Funky Monkey. They both received one silver mole!
@ A Day In A Balloon "Wind speed is measured with a device called an anemometer. There's a project here for making an anemometer, Petula. We could try it out tonight when we get back to the accommodation." "Goodness, Priya! Isn't it terribly technical and scientific to do that?" queried Petula. Priya studied the diagram helpfully provided in the brochure. "Nah. It seems to be made of empty yoghurt cartons and stuff. We'll give it a go!" A Day In A Balloon Oh, what fun! We are all going on a balloon ride—high in the air. The pets have packed their favourite snacks and brought their scarves—in case the air is cool. They are chattering and chirping about what they might see once the balloon is in the air.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Priya.
Petula shook paws with Priya the Posh Peacock. They both received one silver mole!
@ Tree Silhouette “Oh hello, Petula!” cried Max. “Didn’t we bump into each other at the Fiat racetrack in Turin last July? This is quite the change of scene, isn't it!” Tree Silhouette We climbed a hill, and under the delicate branches of the trees, we stood still for a time and let the colours of the sunset relax our minds.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Max.
Petula shook paws with Max the Merry Mole. They both received one silver mole!
@ A Very Grey Day Petula and ashley shook paws, said “How do you do?” and posed for a souvenir photo. “Why am I always on the left?” grumbled Petula. “Let’s change sides.” “No,” said ashley. “This is my best side.” A Very Grey Day There are blustery days and snowy days, but I think this type of day would make a particular little donkey happy. Not everyone will love a grey day—on the bright side—when the sun does break through, it is such a delight that the dim greyness was worth it.
While experiencing the Elements, you met ashley.
Petula shook paws with ashley the Green Happy Dragon. They both received one silver mole!
@ Rainbow Over The Sea "Peridot, just look at this exhibit! Isn't it amazing?” "It certainly is, Petula! Perhaps they'll have it in postcard size in the gift shop!" Rainbow Over The Sea I wonder how many rainbows are in the sky—all over the world—at any given moment. Rainbows seem to bring a lot of happiness even if there is not a pot of gold at the end—maybe the real treasure is the joy they bring.
While experiencing the Elements, you met Peridot.
Petula shook paws with Peridot the Green Rapid Dragonfly. They both received one silver mole!
@ Electrical Show As Petula's experience of "Sky" comes to an end, she receives a wonderful gift! Flowering Branch, Violet Walking down the street, marvelling at the flowers awakening to the spring warmth. The new buds on trees bloom into a dazzling array of blossoms delighting the senses and gladening the heart. These wonderful violet blooms adorning delicate branches are a welcome addition to the garden.
Electrical Show Bolts of energy, radiating light—flung downward from unseen hands—pierce the land. Petula has completed her exploration of "Sky"! Please select another pet as visitor, so it can also explore the Elements!
