ʻO ka popoki a me nā holoholona ʻē aʻe ma ka hale hoʻokahi

 ʻAʻole māʻona ka hapa nui o mākou i ka noho ʻana o hoʻokahi holoholona i loko o ka hale, a ma hope a ma hope paha ua hoʻomaka nā manaʻo ʻoluʻolu o ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi pōpoki ʻē aʻe. A i ʻole he ʻīlio. A i ʻole he manu, he iʻa, he hamster… he crocodile. Akā, pehea e noho ai ka pōpoki i ka hale hoʻokahi me nā holoholona ʻē aʻe? Ma mua o ka hoʻoholo ʻana e hana i kēia kaʻina, pono ʻoe e kaupaona hou i nā mea āpau, a hou. ʻAʻole lawa ka lawe ʻana i kahi mea lawe i loko o ka hale, e kāhea aku i ka pōpoki a ʻōlelo: "ʻO kāu hoaaloha hou kēia, e noho pū ʻo ia me mākou a hiki paha ke pāʻani me kāu mau mea pāʻani. Hauʻoli ʻoe?” ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole e hauʻoli ka pōpoki! E mākaukau no ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻo ia, ʻoi loa, e pale ikaika i kona ʻāina mai ka hoʻouka ʻana o kahi malihini. Kiʻi: pōpoki a ʻīlio ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻonoho hou ʻana i kahi mea hou no kekahi mau lā "ma ka quarantine". No laila hiki iā ia ke loiloi i ke kūlana ma mua o kona hālāwai ʻana me ka poʻe kahiko. A laila e hoʻokomo iā ia i loko o ka mea lawe a hoʻokuʻu i nā "'ōiwi" e hele mai e hana i kahi hoʻolauna pōkole. E kamaʻilio wale nā ​​holoholona i mua o kou alo no kekahi mau pule. E hooikaika i ka hana maikai ma na aoao elua. Ma keʻano he kūlana, ināʻike nā pipi a iʻole kahi'īlio a me kahi'īlio,ʻaʻohe pilikia. Akā hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa nā pēpē ʻelua mai ka pā hoʻokahi - ma kēia ala e pale aku ai ʻoe i nā pilikia me ka kamaʻāina. 

Inā hoʻolauna ʻoe i ka pōpoki a i ʻole ka pipi a me kahi ʻīlio makua i kekahi i kekahi, pono ka ʻīlio ma ka lei a ʻike i nā kauoha kumu ("Noho", "E moe i lalo", "Fu" a me "ʻAʻole").

 Ma ke kumu, hiki i nā pōpoki ke noho ma ka hale hoʻokahi me nā pōpoki a i ʻole nā ​​ʻīlio ʻē aʻe. Inā hoʻoholo ʻoe e hoʻohui i ka zoo me nā manu a i ʻole nā ​​​​rodents, ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī o nā mea āpau. Ma ke kiʻi: he pōpoki a me ka hamsterHele mai ka instinct hahai holoholona me ka popoki ma ka hoʻonohonoho kumu a ʻaʻole pio i kou makemake. No laila, no kekahi manawa hiki iā ia ke hoʻohālikelike pono ʻole ʻo ia i ka parrot a i ʻole hamster, akā i ka manawa mua ʻaʻole ia e nalo iā ia. ʻO kāu hana ʻaʻole wale ka pale ʻana i nā holoholona liʻiliʻi mai kahi predator, akā e hoʻomanaʻo hoʻi ʻo ka hele ʻana o kahi pōpoki he koʻikoʻi mau no ka manu a i ʻole nā ​​​​iole hoʻonaninani. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, loaʻa iā lākou nā manaʻo a me nā manaʻo. A hiki i ke kaumaha ke alakaʻi i ka maʻi nui. No laila, pono ka mālama ʻana i nā holoholona i loko o nā lumi like ʻole, a ʻoluʻolu paha i ka haku ʻana o nā mea hoʻolimalima, a poina e pili ana i ka hoʻohui ʻana i nā mea hou. Inā hiki i kāu pōpoki ke komo i ka māla a manaʻo ʻoe e hānai i nā manu hihiu, e kau i nā mea hānai manu a i ʻole nā ​​hale manu ma nā wahi hiki ʻole i ka mea hahai holoholona ke hele aku. A i ka manawa o ka hānai ʻana i nā moa, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka palena ʻana i ka neʻe ʻana o nā pōpoki.
