[1:03] Amy Daniels: Trying to make sense of the world around them.

[1:07] Amy Daniels: Adventures and discoveries around every bend.

[1:12] Amy Daniels: Come along and explore with them.

[1:16] Amy Daniels: Season 5, Episode 6. Kitten's Tale, Part 2.

[1:23] Amy Daniels: Back in my day.

[1:25] Amy Daniels: In our last episode, Kitten was sharing with Clucky, the hens, Hazel, and Feral.

[1:30] Amy Daniels: Her story about how she ended up in an animal shelter.

[1:33] Amy Daniels: If you missed Kitten's Tale, Part 1, you may want to go back and listen before jumping into this episode.

[1:39] Amy Daniels: Now we resume our story where Kitten left off.

[1:42] Amy Daniels: She had just fallen in the water when her box boat sprang a leak.

[1:46] Clucky: Oh, no. Little dude, where did you go?

[1:49] Clucky: Oh, no. The box just dropped out.

[1:52] Clucky: Little dude, where are you?

[1:55] Clucky: Oh, no. Kitten, did you drown?

[1:58] Kitten: Of course not, Clucky. She is sitting here telling us the story.

[2:02] Bridget: Right. Good point, Bridget.

[2:04] Bridget: What happened when you went into the water then?

[2:07] Feral: That irresponsible creature. How dare he let you fall in the water.

[2:11] Feral: There could be horrible creatures in there.

[2:14] Kitten: Feral, it was not his fault. The box broke.

[2:17] Kitten: It had been sitting in the water for a day.

[2:19] Kitten: Cardboard is not meant to be used as a boat.

[2:22] Bridget: Of course. He should have known this.

[2:25] Kitten: Feral, Blue was obviously trying to help Kitten by pushing the box upstream.

[2:31] Kitten: I don't think it's really fair to think that a river otter would know that a cardboard box would not last in water.

[2:36] Kitten: After all, it brought Kitten down the river.

[2:39] Feral: My precious Kitten was in danger, Brigitte. He should have done more to protect her.

[2:44] Bridget: Really, Feral, I think you are overreacting a bit.

[2:47] Feral: I am not overreacting. That means to respond more emotionally or with more feeling than necessary.

[2:54] Feral: I have a lot of feelings about Kitten's safety, and I think this Blue should too.

[2:59] Kitten: Can we get back to the story now?

[3:02] Kitten: What did you see when you went into the water, Kitten?

[3:05] Kitten: It was all so sudden. One minute, Blue was pushing the box.

[3:10] Kitten: And suddenly I was underwater, and all I could see was the murky water and bubbles.

[3:15] Kitten: I think I faintly heard Blue calling me, but I couldn't tell up from down.

[3:21] Kitten: I was frantically pawing at the water, and then finally my paw connected with something solid.

[3:27] Bridget: Did you hit bottom?

[3:30] Bridget: Or maybe a rock?

[3:32] Kitten: I was not sure at first. It was solid and bumpy, and then I think it started to move.

[3:37] Kitten: I was being pulled up by my paw, and it caught on something that I thought was a rock.

[3:42] Kitten: All of a sudden, my head broke the surface of the water, and I could breathe again.

[3:47] Clucky: Oh, thank goodness. I was holding my breath. I can breathe again too!

[3:53] Kitten: Oh, Clucky, I was doing that too. Were you frightened? I would have been terrified.

[4:00] Kitten: It all happened so quickly. I didn't really have time to be scared, Hazel.

[4:05] Hazel: I think I would have found time.

[4:08] Hazel: I'm afraid to ask. What pulled you out of the water? What was your paw caught on?

[4:13] Kitten: It was a common snapping turtle.

[4:16] Feral: A Cholera serpentine! Oh my, those are known for their powerful snapping jaws and snake-like necks.

[4:23] Feral: They also have rigid shells that can vary from smooth to bumpy.

[4:27] Bridget: Your paw must have caught on one of the shell ridges.

[4:31] Kitten: Shell ridges? You are right. My paw did catch on its shell.

[4:36] Kitten: However, he turned out to be a very uncommon character.

[4:39] Bridget: Oh, do tell us what happened.

[4:42] Ted: Who disturbed my slumber?

[4:45] Kitten: Ow! What?

[4:48] Kitten: What? What does that mean? You don't know?

[4:52] Ted: Back in my day, people knew what words meant. Now, what didn't you understand, missy?

[4:58] Kitten: I'm sorry. I just fell out of a box, and I can't swim, and you brought me up to the surface.

[5:05] Kitten: And I don't know what you mean by disturb your slumber? What does that mean?

[5:13] Ted: It means bother. And wake up. Interrupt. You woke me up, and now you are bothering me. Go away.

[5:21] Kitten: Uh, okay. It's just that my paw is stuck on your shell, and I'm trying to go away, but I can't swim.

[5:28] Ted: Do you think you could take me over to that patch of land?

[5:31] Ted: What do you mean you don't swim? You're in the water right now.

[5:34] Kitten: Yes, but my paw is caught on your shell. You are keeping me from going under.

[5:39] Ted: Back in my day.

[5:43] Kitten: Meow? Um, are you okay?

[5:46] Ted: Huh? What's going on? What are you doing there?

[5:50] Kitten: I told you that my paw is stuck on your shell.

[5:53] Blue: Whoa, little dude. How did you end up this far downstream?

[5:58] Kitten: Oh, Blue, you found me.

[6:00] Ted: Who are you, young whippersnapper?

[6:03] Blue: Slow your chomp there, Gramps. The kitten and I are bros.

[6:07] Ted: You don't look related.

[6:09] Blue: No, bro. Not like brother bros. Like bro-bros.

[6:13] Ted: What language are you speaking, Otter? Kids today.

[6:17] Blue: Name's Blue.

[6:19] Ted: How old are you? Um, Mr. Turtle?

[6:23] Ted: My name's not Mr. Turtle. It's Ted. I'm a common snapping turtle.

[6:28] Ted: Mr. Turtle's my father. He's a hundred and two.

[6:33] Blue: Your father's a hundred and two? How old are you?

[6:37] Ted: I'm just a spry 85. Just had my birthday last week. The kids came.

[6:47] Ted: Are you still with us, Ted?

[6:49] Ted: Huh? You still here?

[6:51] Blue: What was that, dude? You just stopped talking.

[6:55] Ted: Well, um, thank you for saving me from the water, Ted.

[6:58] Ted: I was not trying to. I was down in the mud in the shallows over there waiting to catch my next meal.

[7:04] Blue: You can breathe underwater?

[7:06] Ted: No, but I can hold my breath for almost an hour.

[7:09] Blue: Whoa! I can only hold my breath for about eight minutes.

[7:13] Ted: My cousin in Canada tells me he sometimes has to hold his breath for six months when he's frozen under the ice up there.

[7:20] Blue: Gnarly, dude!

[7:22] Ted: So then you swim to the surface to take a breath?

[7:25] Ted: Nope.

[7:29] Ted: Radio silence, dude. Totally drifted off the radar again.

[7:33] Blue: So, Ted, if you don't swim to the surface, how do you breathe?

[7:38] Ted: My neck is really long and flexible. I just stretch up and take a breath, then sink back down below the water and wait.

[7:45] Blue: What do you wait for?

[7:47] Ted: Food.

[7:48] Blue: What do you eat?

[7:49] Ted: Pretty much anything that comes along.

[7:52] Blue: Lou, do you think you can help me get my paw un-stuck from Ted's shell?

[7:55] Blue: Let me take a look.

[7:58] Blue: Dude! Your neck is really long! You just scoped a full 360 to check out her paw! Legendary, man!

[8:07] Blue: I see. You've got your paw stuck in the crack on the rim of my carapace.

[8:12] Kitten: What is a carapace?

[8:14] Ted: Don't they teach you whippersnappers any words these days?

[8:18] Kitten: I'm only about eight weeks old. There's a lot I don't know.

[8:22] Ted: Carapace means hard upper shell.

[8:25] Kitten: Oh, thank you. How did you get this crack? It looks like there's a pretty big chunk missing from the edge of your carapace.

[8:33] Kitten: Was it from an epic battle?

[8:36] Ted: No. Back in 1941, when I was a little snapper, my shell was not yet hard.

[8:47] Blue: Ted! Bro! Come in, bro! We lost you again! Eh?

[8:54] Blue: You were telling us about the crack in your shell. I mean, carapace. Then you kind of stopped.

[9:00] Ted: Right. I was crawling out of my nest and a seagull swooped down and picked me up.

[9:05] Hazel: Oh my! How scary!

[9:07] Ted: It was. My shell was very soft and I had just hatched. I wiggled and a small chunk of my carapace broke off.

[9:14] Ted: The darn bird took the chunk with him.

[9:17] Blue: That sounds gnarly, dude! Were you really high? Did you have an epic wipeout?

[9:23] Ted: I did fall back into the swamp, if that's what you're asking, sonny.

[9:28] Ted: I've had that missing piece in my carapace ever since.

[9:32] Blue: Bummer, dude!

[9:34] Ted: I must say I'm pretty grateful for the missing piece, since if you had not come to the surface, I don't know if I'd have been able to find my way out of the water.

[9:41] Ted: I've hooked many tasty snacks in that spot on my carapace over the years. Fortunately, my neck can swerve around that far so I can reach whatever gets caught there.

[9:51] Blue: What do you think is the best way for me to get my paw out?

[9:55] Ted: Would you like me to bite it off? That should fix it. I can chomp it in one bite.

[10:00] Ted: It would be really fast and I would get a little snack too. Everyone wins!

[10:05] Blue: What?

[10:06] Blue: Bruh! You did not just drop that! You can't be serious!

[10:09] Kitten: Snackin' on her flipper! Bad mojo, dude! I need my paw! We gotta find a different line, brah! I'm sure if I just wiggle it a little bit... Lou, maybe if you could use your paw to help me? Maybe if we got closer to the shore, I could put my other paws on the ground! Nah, I think biting it off is the best thing. It's the simplest solution. And I'm hungry. My jaw's really strong and my bite will be quick.

[10:38] Hazel: Mon Dieu! Did he bite off your paw? Have I not noticed?

[10:43] Kitten: Of course not. Kitten is sitting here with four paws telling us the story.

[10:48] Lou: Are you sure? Kitten, do you have all parts of your paws?

[10:52] Rhonda: Maybe she is missing a toe? Have you ever checked?

[10:56] Hazel: No wonder you never told us this story! It's horrible! Have you been hiding a missing paw for the four years we've known you?

[11:05] Ted: I think this story is fascinating! I'd describe it as scary, not horrible. Kitten, you're so brave! You say so many things when you were young!

[11:17] Hazel: I agree with Hazel. I don't think this story is horrible either, but Kitten, what happened to your paw?

[11:22] Kitten: Meow! I did not lose my paw! When Ted snapped the last time, he was demonstrating how strong his jaw muscles were!

[11:31] Lou: Oh, that is a relief! I have been mowing your paws so often! I feel I should have noticed if there was one missing!

[11:39] Rhonda: Can you please tell us how you managed to get away with all four paws?

[11:44] Kitten: Yes, please! It's not looking very good. Well, all of a sudden, there was a disturbance in the water.

[11:52] Ted: What was that?

[11:54] Kitten: Don't know. I felt it too, brah. It felt like something just cruised past me underneath.

[12:00] Lou: Creepy vibes, man!

[12:03] Rhonda: Me too! So, what do we have here? A trio of treats, sis! It is my lucky day!

[12:13] Ted: Python! Bail out, man! Don't stop paddling!

[12:18] Kitten: Not today, sonny. You won't find me in the mud.

[12:22] Lou: Whoa! Help! He's taking me under!

[12:25] Kitten: Full throttle, brah! Be there in a slash!

[12:29] Ted: This is when I wish I had arms! Now just hold still and let me wrap around you!

[12:36] Kitten: I'm a good swimmer and Turtle is one of my favorite meals!

[12:46] Lou: You got my puffery!

[12:48] Kitten: Move it, brah! That nasty slitherer went for Ted first!

[12:52] Ted: I'm gonna paddle you to shore! Check out the gnarly timber!

[12:55] Kitten: I'm gonna chuck you over and you're gonna scale up like a legend!

[13:00] Lou: But it'll find us!

[13:02] Kitten: Hit the branches, dude! I'm gonna draw his line away from you! Jump, dude!

[13:09] Ted: No, Blue! It's after you!

[13:12] Kitten: Meow!

[13:14] Lou: Oh, nice move! Grab that snake to hit the tree in the water!

[13:17] Kitten: Oh, please get away!

[13:19] Rhonda: Help!

[13:25] Ted: I see one over there!

[13:28] Kitten: I think it is after something. Do you have the tranquilizer ready? It looks like a big one. Maybe ten feet long.

[13:36] Lou: All set. Go around to the left. I'll try the right.

[13:41] Ted: I hit it!

[13:43] Kitten: I see it slowing down. Quick! Let's grab it before it goes under. I don't want it to drown.

[13:49] Lou: Pythons can hold their breath for thirty minutes.

[13:52] Kitten: I'm not sure if that's true if they are knocked out.

[13:55] Lou: Good point. Did you see if it caught the otter it was chasing?

[13:59] Kitten: I don't know. I hope not. I like otters.

[14:03] Rhonda: Did you hear a cat meowing?

[14:05] Ted: I don't think so, but there was a lot of commotion. Come on, let's go collect the snake. Then we can look around for other things.

[14:13] Kitten: Oh, Blue, I hope you're okay.

[14:15] Rhonda: Meow.

[14:16] Kitten: Hello.

[14:19] Spoonbill Sisters: Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack.

[14:26] Lou: Wait. Kitten, what happened with the python, Bivitatus? Did Blue get eaten? How did you get out of the tree? What are those weird noises you are making?

[14:40] Kitten: I'm getting there. The people walked off to go get the python. And they were gone for a while. I was up in the tree too, fighting to move or make a sound. Everything happened so fast with Blue and the python. They were moving so quickly. I didn't see what happened to Blue when the people shot the dart at the big snake. Blue and the snake moved so fast they were out of sight of my tree. And the people were soon out of sight too. And all I could hear was the water and the insects. I must have dozed off because the next thing I remember is my fur was dry and sticking up all over. And I was hearing these strange birds making noises below my tree.

[15:14] Spoonbill Sisters: Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack.

[15:20] Rhonda: Oh my god! I'm like totally bugging!

[15:24] Shonda: Like me too, Shunda! This like little patch of shore is full of my favorite water beetles.

[15:29] Rhonda: Ew! Beetles, Rhonda! As if!

[15:33] Shonda: Oh my god! I just snagged a little minnow!

[15:36] Rhonda: At least you found a spot with some variety.

[15:39] Shonda: Stop being like such a hater, Rhonda! You eat beetles too!

[15:44] Rhonda: Ew! Not if I can help it! Like gag me with your spoonbill!

[15:49] Kitten: Oh! Those must be Platalea ajaja, or Rosie at spoonbill. They are a large wading bird known for its pink plumage and distinctive spoon-shaped bill.

[15:54] Hazel: Thanks, Hazel. That helps me picture them better.

[15:60] Kitten: No problem. Yes, Hazel. They were spoonbills. Three sisters. And I peeked up around the frond on the palm tree I was in.

[16:11] Rhonda: There was a frog up there with you?

[16:14] Kitten: What? No. Frond. It's what you call the big leaves of a palm tree.

[16:19] Rhonda: Oh, that makes more sense. The spoonbill sisters did not appear to be dangerous, so I thought I'd climb down and see if they'd help me figure out what happened to Blue. I started to climb down the palm tree, and I clipped and landed with a plop.

[16:31] Shonda: Oh my god! What was that?

[16:33] Rhonda: Oh my god! Londa, look at that cute little fluffball!

[16:36] Shonda: I like big fur and I cannot lie. Our feathers just help us fly. But when a creature walks in with fluffy, fluffy fur, I just want to pet them.

[16:45] Rhonda: Like where, Rhonda?

[16:46] Shonda: Oh my god! Like, see it? You were like right. It's so fluffy, like I could die!

[16:51] Rhonda: Like, where are you looking, Shonda?

[16:54] Shonda: Like over by the palm tree, Londa.

[16:57] Rhonda: Oh, I like see it. Like, to-le-fluff-tastic.

[17:01] Shonda: Like, gag me with your spoonbill. That word is heinous!

[17:05] Rhonda: Like, totally agree, Shonda. Fluff-tastic.

[17:09] Shonda: Like, what were you thinking, Londa?

[17:11] Rhonda: Like, whatever.

[17:13] Kitten: Um, excuse me? I was hoping you could maybe help me?

[17:17] Shonda: Oh my god! It, like, talks!

[17:20] Rhonda: Oh my god! Your fur is so fly! Like, what do you need help with, little fluffy one?

[17:26] Kitten: Well, um... Wait! Before we hear, like, your problem, we must, like, take a selfie!

[17:32] Shonda: A what?

[17:34] Rhonda: Oh! You were totally right! Gather around our fly-furry friend. Strike a pose!

[17:39] Kitten: A pose?

[17:41] Shonda: Yeah, like, one wing out and bills up!

[17:42] Kitten: Okay! Like, selfie-click!

[17:45] Shonda: Selfie-click?

[17:47] Rhonda: Now, like, the other wing up. Get my good side.

[17:50] Kitten: And... selfie-click!

[17:52] Shonda: What exactly is a selfie-click?

[17:54] Rhonda: Like, all the fly-girls do it.

[17:56] Shonda: Yeah, like, at the pier, all the totally rad girls make their excessive duck-faces and, like, take a trillion selfies.

[18:03] Kitten: How do you not know about selfies? Like, oh my god! You like living under a rock or something? Like, it's so iconic, you know?

[18:10] Rhonda: Like, totally!

[18:12] Kitten: I feel like there's a bigger piece I'm missing here.

[18:15] Shonda: Like, whatever! Okay, but that's done now. So, like, spill!

[18:20] Kitten: I don't have anything to spill?

[18:22] Rhonda: No, like, tell us your problem.

[18:24] Kitten: Oh, okay. Well, I'm lost.

[18:28] Spoonbill Sisters: Awww!

[18:30] Kitten: Also, my otter friend Blue, who was helping me, may have been eaten by a big snake. He swam off that way.

[18:37] Shonda: He swam off that way? Like, snake? Like, around here? Do you think, like, it's still around?

[18:45] Kitten: The truck is parked a little past that palm tree.

[18:48] Rhonda: That palm tree by those spoonbills?

[18:50] Kitten: Yeah, head that way.

[18:52] Shonda: Sorry, little furry friend. We have to, like, fly. Humans are, like, coming this way. Like, good luck!

[18:59] Kitten: Yeah, wait! I can't fly! Meow! Meow!

[19:04] Rhonda: Hello?

[19:06] Shonda: I told you, I heard meowing!

[19:08] Rhonda: Let's set the cage down for a minute. I hear it now, too.

[19:12] Kitten: There, by the palm tree. A little grey kitten!

[19:16] Rhonda: Oh, poor thing! How did it get all the way out here?

[19:20] Shonda: Who knows? We better take it to the pound. There is no way it will survive long out here.

[19:26] Kitten: Mais bien sûr! So that is how you ended up in the pound! I always knew you were brave!

[19:31] Rhonda: But wait! Did you ever find out what happened to Bloom?

[19:34] Kitten: Actually, I did.

[19:36] Rhonda: How did you manage that?

[19:38] Kitten: Well, the trappers, who were very nice, by the way, they sent me in the back of their truck while they loaded up the python in the back. She was really sleepy, but I was able to talk to her a little bit while they packed up.

[19:48] Rhonda: I'm afraid to ask. Did he get eaten? If so, I feel like maybe the great doll was right, and I should have spoken about him more kindly.

[19:58] Kitten: The conversation went like this. Grrrrrr!

[20:04] Python: Grrrrrrr!

[20:06] Kitten: Excuse me? Did you wake up? I need to know what happened to my friend? Did you hurt him?

[20:20] Unknown speaker: Please, the otter you were chasing. Did you hurt him?

[20:31] Unknown speaker: So you didn't catch him?

[20:45] Unknown speaker: Oh, he got away. Oh, thank goodness.

[20:49] Unknown speaker: Why would a kitten care about an otter?

[20:52] Unknown speaker: He was my friend. He was helping me find my way home.

[20:56] Unknown speaker: Oh, I had a home once.

[21:01] Unknown speaker: You did? How did you end up here?

[21:04] Unknown speaker: I was called Dolores. I had a home with a boy.

[21:10] Unknown speaker: He bought me from the pet store when I was very small.

[21:16] Unknown speaker: Just over two feet long.

[21:20] Unknown speaker: That must have been a long time ago. You're much bigger now.

[21:24] Unknown speaker: No, it was not. Burmese pythons, which is what I am, grow very fast.

[21:33] Unknown speaker: That was the problem.

[21:36] Unknown speaker: Why is growing fast a problem?

[21:39] Unknown speaker: It was a problem for Timmy's mom.

[21:44] Unknown speaker: Timmy was my boy.

[21:47] Unknown speaker: My first year with Timmy was spectacular.

[21:54] Unknown speaker: He brought me lots of my favorite foods.

[21:58] Unknown speaker: And he would take me out of my habitat to play.

[22:03] Unknown speaker: He was always giving me things to squeeze.

[22:10] Unknown speaker: He loved to watch me wrap around things and squeeze them.

[22:17] Unknown speaker: His favorite was water balloons.

[22:21] Unknown speaker: He would fill them up with warm water and I would wrap around them.

[22:27] Unknown speaker: I would squeeze them until they popped.

[22:32] Unknown speaker: I loved that.

[22:34] Unknown speaker: That sounds nice. What happened?

[22:37] Unknown speaker: The first year I lived with Timmy, I grew to six feet in length.

[22:44] Unknown speaker: By year two, I was almost eight feet long.

[22:49] Unknown speaker: His mother said I was too big and had to go.

[22:54] Unknown speaker: She was worried I might hurt Timmy, but I would never do that.

[23:00] Unknown speaker: I did try to squeeze the dog one time, but that is because it would not stop barking.

[23:10] Unknown speaker: After that, Timmy's mom decided I had to go.

[23:17] Unknown speaker: So they let you go in the swamp?

[23:19] Unknown speaker: Not exactly.

[23:21] Unknown speaker: She had lined up a zoo to take me.

[23:25] Unknown speaker: I was to be a pet on display.

[23:29] Unknown speaker: Timmy was very upset.

[23:32] Unknown speaker: He did not want me to go.

[23:36] Unknown speaker: How did you feel about it?

[23:38] Unknown speaker: I was sad to be leaving Timmy, but the zoo did not sound that bad.

[23:45] Unknown speaker: So then what happened?

[23:47] Unknown speaker: How did you end up here?

[23:49] Unknown speaker: Timmy was really upset.

[23:53] Unknown speaker: He did not want me to go.

[23:55] Unknown speaker: He could not convince his mom to let me stay.

[23:59] Unknown speaker: He decided that he'd rather let me go in the wild than to have me taken away.

[24:06] Unknown speaker: He opened his bedroom window, and then he took me out of my habitat and brought me to the window.

[24:15] Unknown speaker: He said he wanted me to be free.

[24:19] Unknown speaker: I did not want to go.

[24:21] Unknown speaker: I curled around him in a big hug.

[24:25] Unknown speaker: Then he threw my dinner out the window.

[24:28] Unknown speaker: He said it was a meal for the road.

[24:32] Unknown speaker: I gave him one last squeeze, then I was off.

[24:37] Unknown speaker: How long ago was that?

[24:39] Unknown speaker: It's hard to know.

[24:42] Unknown speaker: I don't have anyone keeping track of time for me.

[24:46] Unknown speaker: It has been a while.

[24:49] Unknown speaker: When I left, I was only 8 feet long, and now I am 13 feet long.

[24:57] Unknown speaker: Wow, how long will you get?

[24:59] Unknown speaker: Hard to know, but I've met a few pythons over 18 feet long.

[25:07] Unknown speaker: That is just so sad.

[25:10] Unknown speaker: How could they just put her out in the wild to fend for herself?

[25:14] Unknown speaker: She's a giant snake.

[25:15] Unknown speaker: It does not seem like she has a problem fending for herself.

[25:18] Unknown speaker: She's huge.

[25:19] Unknown speaker: Do you know how long 13 feet is?

[25:22] Unknown speaker: A chicken is like 6 inches wide.

[25:24] Unknown speaker: You would need 26 chickens standing right next to each other to be as long as that snake is.

[25:29] Unknown speaker: And don't forget, it tried to squeeze the dog.

[25:32] Unknown speaker: She would have eaten Blue, Ted, and I if she had gotten the chance to.

[25:36] Unknown speaker: The only reason she was talking to me was because she was tired from the medicine that she was shot with, and she was in a cage.

[25:42] Unknown speaker: So brave, kitten. I can't believe you talked to her.

[25:46] Unknown speaker: I had to find out if she had eaten Blue.

[25:48] Unknown speaker: So you never saw Blue again?

[25:51] Unknown speaker: No, the trappers cleaned up and took me to the pond.

[25:54] Unknown speaker: After that I was adopted by medics, and Blue never visited the pond that we lived by in Florida.

[25:59] Unknown speaker: I think of him sometimes.

[26:01] Unknown speaker: You do? What do you think?

[26:04] Unknown speaker: I think that I am very grateful that he helped out a little kitten.

[26:08] Unknown speaker: He saved me more than once, and his actions led me to meet all of you.
