Good joke about ham joe !       The ark took a long time to construct, and Noah was "a preacher of righteousness "during this time. He may have hired labour . He did,nt get the animals on board, God sent them. Sienese cats were not on board , they arrived by probably artificial selection a long time after. Probably not polars either , but representatives of the bear kind from which speciation to the various species. Insects were not in the two by twos as they are not creatures that breathe through their nostrils , as scripture indicates. But were they included they would take little room. Goodnight from here ...
