Bye, Dad! Bye, Papa!
All right, bye baby.
Have fun in Sweetwood!
[magical music]
Today's the day!
I'm so excited!
Ooh, love your artwork, Beaky!
[Beaky chirping]
Yeah, the sign looks great!
What's all this for?
It's Healthy Fur Day!
Oh.
Um, I have no clue what that is.

[laughs] Healthy Fur Day is

when I spend the whole day


looking at Sweetwood

animals' fur


so I can help them

take care of it


and keep it clean

and healthy!

Well, I have fur!
Can I come?
Fur sure. [laughs]

Get it?

-Yeah! Good one, Popcorn.


Oh, do you have a tangle

on your fur, Zigzag?

Uh, oh, I-I guess I do!

Well, I can comb that

tangle out for ya.


You can be our first

patient of the day.


Oh well, I, I, I bet

you're too busy,


or-or maybe

I'm-I'm too busy,

but, um, maybe later bye!

Uh, why is she hiding

behind that bush?

I am not hiding!
I mean, gotta go!
[Beaky chirping]

[gasps] Healthy Fur Day

has officially started!

Uh, Vida?
Nobody's here.

Oh well, we just have

to get the word out!

And I've got just the song.

Oooh, me first!
Cool! Healthy Fur Day!
I want to feel fur-bulous!

I know I don't

have fur per se,


but do you think you

could look at my shell?

Absolutely!

It's just as important

to keep a healthy shell.

Okay, Koa, you're up first!
Woohoo!
Right this way, to the salon.
What are they doing in there?
So Koa, tell me about your fur.
My fur's fine,

it's this weird weather

that's the problem!

Weird weather?
Yeah, it keeps snowing!
But only on me!
Ah, I see.

My diagnosis is...

you have dandruff.

Dandruff is little flakes of-
Snow?
[laughs] Nope, dry skin!

So what do I do

about dandruff?

[gasps] Is it bad?
It's nothing to worry about.

We have just the

tools for the job.


Dandruff shampoo

and a scrubber!


Oh, what are they

doing to Koa?

[Koa laughing]
Oh, that tickles!

[laughs] Doesn't it

feel good though?


We're scrubbing all

the dry skin off.

[laughs] I do feel better!
Ooooh, wow!
Actually...
[gasps] I feel gorgeous!
Woohoohoo!
Oh thanks, Vida.
And thanks, Popcorn.
Happy Fur Day!
Bye-bye!
[Koa humming]
Pssst! Koa!
Oh oh! Huh?
Who said that?

I saw Vida doing

something to your fur

and I was just wondering...
did it hurt?
Did it hurt?
[laughs] Not at all!

But-but-but, what was the

thing they used on you?

Oh, the scrub brush?

It tickled a little

but afterwards,

I felt fabulous!
Or should I say...
♪ fur-bulous! ♪
[Koa laughs]
Whoa.
Are you going in?

Uh, no, not right now

but-but maybe later,

or-or, maybe-maybe not.
Okay, see ya!
Eh, I wish I felt fur-bulous.
[bell dings]
[Zigzag zooming]

Okay Kipp and Fergie,

tell me about your fur.


Well, our fur

has been kinda-

Itchy!
Really itchy!

Is there something

wrong with it?


Hm, I think you

need a check-up.

Let me take a closer look.
Magnifying glass, please.
Magnifying glass!
Ah, I see the problem.

My diagnosis is,

you've got fleas.

Oh hi!
F-f-fleas?
Yep. Tweezers, please.
Tweezers.

Fleas are tiny insects that

can live in animals' fur

and make you really itchy!
Ooooh.
Wait, how'd we get fleas?

They probably jumped

on you 'cause fun fact:


fleas can't fly but they

can jump really high.


That's how they get

from animal to animal.

Yippee!

Once I remove all these fleas,

you won't feel itchy anymore.

Oh good!

And I've got just the

tool for the job.

A flea comb!

Oh whoa, she's

combing their hair.

I bet that hurts!
[gentle cheery music]

Woo! There!

That was the last flea.

Buh-bye, fleas!

Bye bye!

-See ya!

Let's bounce!
That was it?
Yep, that's right!
And now...

♪ You're all better,

you're all done


♪ Now go out and have

some fun [giggles] ♪


Now you won't feel

itchy anymore.

Thank you!
Woo! Thanks, Vida!
Wow, not a single itch!
[playful music]

Fipp! Kergie!

Oh, I mean Kirfy!

Argh! Kipp! Fergie!
[giggles] Oh hey, Zigzag!
I saw Vida combing your fur.
Oh! Yeah?
Did it hurt?
Nope, didn't hurt at all.

Uh, do you know you have

a big tangle in your tail?

Uh yeah, but it's no big deal.

I'm just gonna wait for

it to get untangled.


Zigzag, wouldn't it be easier

to ask Vida to comb it out?

Yeah, it's-
♪ Bum bah dah bah ♪
Healthy Fur Day!
Uhhhh...
Oh, here she is now!

Fergie, Kipp, I forgot to give

you a bottle of flea shampoo.

[Zigzag gasps]

It helps keep the fleas

from coming back.

Oh, thanks! Bye Vida!
Oh, thanks!
See ya, Zigzag!

Oh hi, Zigzag!

Ready to come in yet?

Nope, I uh, uh, nope nope.
Gotta go.
Okay, come back...
uh, later.
Hm.

Where'd all the muddy

footprints come from?


Oh Vida, we've got a

lot more patients.

Hi Vida!
I think I need a bath.
[water burbles]
[cheery playful music]
Oh, so clean!
[hair dryer whirs]
[everyone laughs]
[playful upbeat music]

I know I don't

technically have any fur,

but I feel fur-bulous!
[laughing]
Fur-bulous.
Tidbit's there too?
I gotta see this.
Whoa, whoa! Ahh! Ahhh!
Zigzag!
[birds chirping]
Zigzag, are you okay?
Yes, but, look at me!
Oh, that's a lot of tangles.

I was too nervous

to come in all day


'cause I thought it would hurt

when you combed out my tangle


and now I've made

it even worse!


Why did you think

it would hurt?


Well, it's hard for

me to sit still!

And when I move around,

you might pull on my

hair by accident.

That hurts.

Hm, then we just

have to find a way

to help you sit still.
Come on!

You'll feel better

in one, two, three!

Um, how 'bout that?
Thanks, Popcorn!

I always have the right

tool for the job,

and this time, it's this!
Um, a blob of play clay?

[giggles] Yeah, you

can play with this


while I get your

tangles out.

If your hands are busy,

it might be easier

for you to sit still.

[laughs] Ooooh, gooey.
Our last patient of the day!

Yep! And I have all

the tools I need,

a toy for Zigzag,
a comb,

and a spray bottle

for tangles.


This will help me comb out

the tangles easy-peasy.

Are ya ready?

Oooh and I can do that

and I can do, huh?

Oh oh yeah, I'm ready.
[cheery upbeat music]
That's one! That's two!
Three.
Four.
Five.

Whoa, how many

tangles are there?

Halfway there! A-six!

A-seven!

And eight,
nine,
ten!
Take a look, Zigzag!
What am I looking at?
Wait a second.
No more tangles!
You did it!

[laughs] Aw, I'm

glad I could help.


And I made

something for you!


Vida:

Is that...me?


Yep! Thanks for

helping me feel

♪ fur-bulous! ♪
[everyone laughs]
[Vida humming]

And done!

Whoa!
My portrait!

Popcorn the portrait!

My nose looks... familiar.
Kinda like...
My thumb?
Yeah! I should know,

I've got a nose

for these things.

[giggles] Get it? Nose.
[grunting, exhaling]

Oh! Um, hi, Dad!

Hi, Papa!


Are you trying to scratch

an itch or something?


[laughs] We're, uh, getting

our exercise, Vida.

Come on out and join us!
Uh, no thanks.

I was gonna read about

animals in my room.

Indoor activities are great

but it's good to get

outside and exercise too.

It makes your mind and body...
♪ Feel great! ♪

Plus, we're doing stretches

in the shape of animals.

Well, why didn't you say so?
[upbeat music]
I'm in!
[upbeat music]
[laughs] Nice one.
Fantastic!

[upbeat music]

[grunting]

I'm doing the "crab walk".
You try.
[grunting]
[chuckling]

Ooh, you're looking

pretty crabby!

My turn!

This is called

the "frog jump".

You do it like this.
Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit!
Like this? [grunts]

Ah, ah, ah!

You gotta ribbit.


[in unison] Ribbit,

ribbit, ribbit!

Much better.
[laughs] Isn't exercise fun?

Yeah, especially when it

has to do with animals.


I'll practice more when I

get back from Sweetwood.

Bye, Dad! Bye-bye, Papa!

Bye, Vida!

-Ribbit!

I mean, bye!
[gentle music]

Hey Vida, what did the

frog wear to the dance?

I dunno, what?
A jumpsuit!
Get it? A jumpsuit!
Good one, Popcorn!
Oh! Hi, Zigzag!
Is everything okay?

[sighs] I was supposed to

play hide-and-seek with Banjo,

but he's not feeling good.
Oh no.
I wonder what's wrong.

Let's go visit

him and find out.

Okay.
[gentle music]

There's a good bush for

your hide-and-seek game.

You're right!

I sure hope Vida can figure

out what's up with Banjo.

Hello! It's Vida the Vet!
Oh, Vida!
Thank goodness you're here!

Oh, you'll have to

excuse the mess.


Banjo was supposed

to clean today.

Mommmm, I'm sick.
How ya feeling, Banjo?
[groans] Totally bogus.
Huh?

"Bogus" is teen-talk

for not good.

Oh!

I'm sorry you're

not feeling good.

[heart beating]
Everything sounds fine.
That's even better!
And in here too.

Well, Banjo doesn't

seem sick, so-

There's nothing wrong!

We can play hide-and-seek

after all, Banjo!

But I still don't feel good.

Sorry buddy, I'm just

gonna stay inside.

[Zigzag groaning]

Oh, you always stay

inside, Banjo.


You never seem to

leave the house!

Hmm. That's interesting.

Banjo, tell me what

you do every day.


I wake up, eat some pancakes,

then work on my paintings.


Whoa!

-Wow!

Yeah, painting's my life.

What else is hidden

in these piles?

[sighs] No one knows.
Hmm. Okay.

After you're done painting,

what do you do next?

Then it's bedtime.

I eat dinner,

brush up, floss,

and go to sleep!

Did you get enough

sleep last night?

Yup, got my usual shuteye.
Well, this is a toughie.
We're gonna be here all day!
[Zigzag groans]
Hmm. Wait a sec.
Banjo, do you ever exercise?
Nah, not really. [yawns]

I've been working on this

new painting all month.

Huh?
How is that even possible?

Oh, every day I

ask him to clean.

Every day.
That's it!

Painting is a great

indoor activity, Banjo.

Very creative.
Very.
But you have to exercise too.
Whoa. I do?

Oh yeah, it makes your body

and your mind feel better.

My diagnosis is...

you feel tired because

you need more exercise.


♪ Inside activities

are very fun


♪ Like reading books

or painting the sun


♪ But sitting still

all day just isn't wise

Okay dudes, I'll try it.
My buddy's gonna feel better!
Woo!

But wait, I don't know what

kind of exercise to do.

Don't worry, Banjo.

We can help you find

something you like


and you'll feel

better in , , !

Gnarly.

"Gnarly" is teen

talk for "awesome"!

Don't ask me why.
Here Vida,

I totally want you to

have this finger painting


as a sign of

my appreciation.

Awwww. Wait a sec!
Are those fingerprints?
They sure are!
Fun fact:

Koalas have fingerprints

just like humans.

I love it!
Thanks, Banjo.

Everyone ready to

get some exercise?


Oh yeah!

-Woohoo!

Sure thing.
[upbeat music]

Okay, to get our bodies

moving let's start with...Tag.

Yessss! I love Tag!
I'll be it.
Ready? , , , go!
[laughs] Run, Popcorn!

Zigzag:

Here I come!


Popcorn:

I wasn't ready!

[laughing]
Hmm.
[laughing]
[intriguing music]

Vida:

Um, Banjo?


Don't you wanna

play Tag with us?

Oh, my bad.

I totally got distracted

by these flowers.


Their colours are like,

so beautiful.

That's okay.

Why don't we switch

things up and play catch?

Sounds like a ball!
Get it? A ball. [laughs]
Zigzag, think fast!
I got it! Yesss!
All right, get ready, Banjo.
Banjo? Ready?
He walked off again.
[playful music]
Oh, there you are!

It's your turn to

catch the ball, Banjo.


Wow, I never realized how

many leaves were on a tree.


A lot.


I gotta paint 'em sometime.


Maybe we should try some

other kind of exercise.

What about doing cartwheels?
Look, I'm a wheeeeel!
[exhales] Wow, I'm good!

Hey Banjo, how many

cartwheels can you do?

Whoa, wait up!
I'm not done admiring you!
You're like, so paintable!
It's hopeless!

Me and Banjo are never

gonna play hide-and-seek.


We're never gonna

play anything.


There must be something

he likes doing.

[gasps] Of course!

Banjo, I know what

exercise you can do!

No way. What?

Something you're

already doing.

Standing?
Thinking?
Koala-ing?
Nope. Walking.

Walking is a great

way to exercise.

Ah, that was my next guess!
You can walk outside

while you look for

something new to paint.


Oh, like the flowers and trees

and the little butterfly?

[laughs] Exactly!
Radical!

What's "radical"

teen talk for?


That means we

figured it out!

Woo! Radical!
[upbeat music]

Whoa. This log will make

an excellent painting.

I call it: "Excellent Log."
Mm, yes. Really loggy.
[laughing]
'Scuse me, friends!

Just gettin' my exercise

while I collect my acorns.

You forgot...
She's gone.

Oh, I could totally

paint that.

[pencil scribbling]
Mm-hm, good technique.
I call it: "Suddenly Acorn."
Nice. Now can we play?
Hold up. I got a good one!

I call it:

"Walking Buddies."

Aw, I love it!
Wow, you're good!
I look amazing!
[laughing]
Uh-huh.

Well, you found a way to

exercise, so I think...


♪ You're all better,

you're all done


♪ Now go out and

have some fun! ♪

[giggling]

Aw. I have so much

energy after that walk.


Like my mind and body

both feel awesome!


I'm gonna do it

all the time!


Wanna do it

again right now?

Nah.
Oh okay.

I wanna play hide-and-seek

with my buddies!

Yes! I'm hiding first!
[whooshing]

Ready or not,

here I come!
