A clothes moth just like Veronica

One day when I was tidying my bedroom, as I picked up a pillowcase I found a not very pretty dirty yellow moth.

She was very small; the same size as my fingernail. I found that she couldn’t fly so I took her to my Wendy House and put her in the box I used for Buzza the bee when he couldn’t fly.

I read about moths in my book and found she was a Common Clothes Moth and ate leather, paper, dried flowers, carpet and fruit.

I gave her some raw cooking apple and paper and left her in her box.

The next morning when I woke up, I found that she had gone. I was pleased to have kept her for a little while and guessed that Mother nature sent any animal to me to look after if she had too many to look after herself.
