My name is Alex and I am an ocelot. I am eight years old and I am usually found in caves because I like exploring them. Today I just found a brand new cave right next to my den but I don't feel like going in it now. Maybe tomorrow. I am writing this diary from a book and quill I found on the floor and I got the pictures from an abandoned camera.  I don't know why someone would like to throw them away but I am an ocelot after all so I don't know what humans are like. My Dad, my Mum and I have to collaborate a lot to survive though my Mum finds it tough to hunt for food sometimes.

Today we found out that mum is going to have a baby! I am so excited! I do wander what my mum and dad are going to name it. Today I went into the new cave it goes down very deep. When I got down very deep I saw a lot of stalagmites but I did not want to go down any deeper because I was scared that I might get lost. My dad and I are going down to explore the cave a bit more. I am curious about what might be down there.

So today Mum had the baby! We named it "Ox". Dad and I went into the cave and we discovered that there was something resembling a house. Suddenly we heard loud footsteps and a dark-skinned person with a turquoise T-shirt and purple trousers appeared. He started to make noises with his mouth which Dad and I did not understand. Before we could explore the house Dad said it was time to go and hunt for fish.

Today we found some open doors in the mouth of the cave, a chest inside that cave and a red carpet leading all the way down to the house inside the cave.  The doors of that house were open too so we went inside. The first and only room was very plain. All it had was a bed, a chest and an oven. The floor had yellow tiles and the roof had lots of spaced-out buttons. My Dad thought this was very weird. Suddenly we heard barking and my Dad told me to hide or run. So, I crept under a painting that was under the bed and found myself in another room. I was tired so I slept on a bed I had just found.
