[0:01] Kitten: Kitten and Clucky are two best friends.
[0:08] Clucky: Trying to make sense of the world around them.
[0:12] Kitten: Adventures and discoveries around every bend.
[0:17] Clucky: Come along and explore with them.
[0:30] Kitten: Meet Kitten and Clucky.
[0:38] Kitten: Meow. Meow. Who's coming?
[0:44] Clucky: No one's coming for you.
[0:47] Clucky: They're here for me.
[0:49] Clucky: Today I'm getting adopted.
[0:52] Kitten: What? What's adopted?
[0:55] Kitten: Why would you want that?
[0:57] Clucky: You don't know what adopted is.
[1:02] Clucky: It's when a family gives you a forever home.
[1:06] Clucky: And you get out of this dump.
[1:09] Clucky: They come and pick you up and take you in.
[1:12] Clucky: They feed you and take care of you.
[1:15] Clucky: They give you a nice warm bed to sleep in.
[1:18] Clucky: And you can roam free in the yard or the house.
[1:22] Clucky: Nothing like these cold cages and bars that we're trapped behind.
[1:28] Kitten: Oh, that sounds wonderful.
[1:32] Kitten: I'd love to be adopted.
[1:37] Kitten: It would be so nice to get away from all this noise and have a soft spot to curl up into.
[1:43] Kitten: I've not slept well since they brought me in.
[1:47] Clucky: Stay back, kittens.
[1:49] Clucky: These folks are mine.
[1:53] Clucky: Besides, what would they want with a scrawny little gray kitten like you?
[2:00] Clucky: Not when they could have someone like me with a long, black, luscious fur.
[2:06] Clucky: I'm obviously the better choice.
[2:09] Clucky: The only reason I'm here is because my owner died and her stinking children claim they're allergic to cats.
[2:17] Clucky: My mistress would be heartbroken to see how poorly I have been treated.
[2:26] Kitten: Oh, I'm sorry. I don't know how all of this works.
[2:31] Clucky: I'll tell you how it works.
[2:34] Clucky: You curl up in your corner and stay out of my way.
[2:39] Clucky: This family is going to be mine.
[2:42] Clucky: They are my ticket out of this dump.
[2:46] Kitten: But don't they get to choose?
[2:49] Kitten: I mean, I heard the lady at the check-in counter tell them they could look around and pick any cat they like.
[2:56] Clucky: Oh, they do.
[2:58] Clucky: But I'm not going to let you get in my way.
[3:03] Kitten: No need to get your claws out. I was just asking questions.
[3:09] Clucky: Well, stop asking. Now go.
[3:13] Kitten: Oh, wow. Look at all the cats. There are big ones and small ones.
[3:18] Kitten: She looks like a nice girl.
[3:21] Kitten: Oh, that one has stripes. Look over there.
[3:25] Kitten: That one is so fat.
[3:27] Clucky: I told you to move back.
[3:30] Kitten: Are you sure I can only have...
[3:33] Mom: Yes, honey. We're only getting one.
[3:36] Kitten: How will I ever choose?
[3:38] Kitten: They are all so beautiful. I need a home.
[3:41] Mom: You will just know. Now take a look around.
[3:44] Mom: The keeper said we can open up the cages and pet them, too.
[3:48] Mom: However, only open up one cage at a time.
[3:51] Kitten: Okay, let's start here.
[3:54] Kitten: Aren't you a pretty cat?
[3:57] Kitten: Look at your long black tail. You have very pretty green eyes.
[4:02] Clucky: Yes, yes, I do.
[4:04] Clucky: Pick me and I will be the best cat for you.
[4:12] Kitten: Mom, look how she is rubbing up against the bars.
[4:17] Mom: She seems super friendly.
[4:20] Mom: She's a very pretty cat. I like her jet black fur.
[4:28] Kitten: Oh, Mom, do you see the little gray kitten back there?
[4:33] Kitten: She's all curled up in a ball.
[4:35] Kitten: Oh, look. She's peeking her head up.
[4:38] Kitten: It's okay, little kitty. It won't hurt you. Come on out.
[4:42] Kitten: Want me to pet you?
[4:44] Clucky: Stay away. These are my people.
[4:49] Kitten: But she's calling me.
[4:52] Kitten: Oh, Mom, she has the sweetest little meow.
[4:59] Mom: It seems like the black cat does not want you talking to this little sweetie.
[5:04] Kitten: Are you jealous?
[5:07] Kitten: Oh, the name on your cage says Sassy.
[5:11] Kitten: Sassy, don't be mean to the little gray.
[5:16] Kitten: Strange, there is no name on this cage. It only says kitten.
[5:20] Clucky: That's because she's a no one.
[5:24] Kitten: Come on, little kitten. It's okay. You are safe.
[5:29] Kitten: Mom, do you think I can open the cage and reach in?
[5:34] Mom: Yes, the keeper said it was okay to do.
[5:36] Mom: Just go slow. She looks a little scared.
[5:39] Kitten: Okay.
[5:44] Kitten: Here, kitty, kitty.
[5:46] Clucky: Oh, she's reaching out a paw.
[5:50] Clucky: No, stay back. I want her.
[5:54] Clucky: You are not the boss of me.
[5:56] Clucky: She is nice and I'm going to be nice to her.
[6:01] Mom: Now, Miss Sassy, settle down. Maddox is not going to hurt the little kitten.
[6:06] Clucky: Like I'd care if she hurt her.
[6:10] Clucky: She just wants to get to know her.
[6:13] Clucky: There's a nice kitty.
[6:16] Clucky: What a nice gentle fur you have.
[6:19] Kitten: Oh, your fur is so soft.
[6:23] Kitten: Mom, look at her long bushy gray tail. It's almost as fluffy as a squirrel's.
[6:29] Kitten: Can I hold you? Come here.
[6:33] Kitten: Oh, there's a good girl.
[6:35] Kitten: Mom, look. She has a little white heart-shaped spot on her chest.
[6:42] Kitten: Please pick me. I think we would be the best of friends.
[6:46] Kitten: Mom, this is the one.
[6:49] Mom: Are you sure you don't want to look around some more?
[6:52] Mom: There are lots of other cats here.
[6:54] Mom: Miss Sassy is walking around in her cage, hoping you'll take another look at her.
[6:58] Mom: She's a lovely cat.
[7:01] Kitten: No more. This is the one.
[7:04] Kitten: I can feel it. I'm going to call her Kitten Adeline Daniels.
[7:10] Clucky: I have a name.
[7:12] Kitten: Adeline means kind-hearted and she has a white heart on her chest.
[7:20] Kitten: I think that's perfect.
[7:23] Kitten: I have a name and I'm going to my forever home.
[7:36] Mom: Now here you are, Kitten. A nice soft bed for you in your own little shed.
[7:42] Kitten: Meow.
[7:44] Mom: Don't worry. You won't be cold because we have a nice heating pad in here.
[7:49] Mom: Also, you won't be hungry or thirsty because your food and water are right here.
[7:54] Mom: I will be out to visit you every morning and we can spend the day together.
[7:59] Mom: We've got all weekend.
[8:01] Kitten: I'm so excited.
[8:03] Kitten: Meow.
[8:05] Mom: It's too bad you can't come to school with me. I'm going to miss you while I'm there.
[8:10] Kitten: Meow.
[8:12] Maddox: Maddox! Maddox! Come to the house. It's time for dinner.
[8:18] Maddox: You can go visit Kitten again after you eat.
[8:22] Maddox: Well, you heard Mom. I've got to go. Let's get you settled in.
[8:28] Maddox: I wish you could live in the house with me, but Dad's allergic to cats.
[8:33] Maddox: At least you won't be totally on your own. You're right next door to the chickens.
[8:37] Maddox: Don't eat them, okay?
[8:40] Maddox: Okay. I'll see you after dinner.
[8:45] Maddox: Bye! I do hope she comes back.
[8:51] Kitten: So, this is my new home. It's so much more peaceful than the pound.
[8:59] Kitten: This bed feels so soft. It seems to be just the right size for me to curl up into.
[9:07] Kitten: Oh, yes. It's just perfect. So soft.
[9:14] Kitten: Huh? What's that over there?
[9:18] Kitten: Is that a scratching post?
[9:23] Kitten: Oh, I love how it feels when I run my claws down it.
[9:29] Kitten: I will never have dull nails again.
[9:32] Kitten: Oh, what's that over there? It looks like a little tower.
[9:39] Kitten: Is that for me to climb? I bet I can see the whole yard from up there.
[9:46] Kitten: I'm going to climb it. Jump. Up. Up.
[9:52] Kitten: Oh, I made it to the top.
[9:55] Kitten: Attack! Invaders! Sound the alarm!
[9:59] Kitten: Stay back! I know Taekwondo!
[10:04] Clucky: Who are you?
[10:07] Kitten: Me? Who are you?
[10:10] Kitten: Are you an alien invader?
[10:14] Clucky: I have never seen you before, and I've lived here since I was hatched.
[10:19] Kitten: Please, meow.
[10:22] Kitten: Explain yourself before I unleash my two best friends.
[10:26] Kitten: That's what I call my wings. This is karate, and this is chop.
[10:31] Clucky: Whoa!
[10:34] Clucky: Take it easy there. I'm not here to hurt you.
[10:38] Kitten: How do I know that?
[10:41] Kitten: You just leapt up here on my perch with your sharp claws and your pointy teeth.
[10:46] Kitten: Stay back. I'm warning you.
[10:50] Clucky: Be careful. This ledge is not very big.
[10:53] Clucky: I don't want you to step backward and fall off.
[10:56] Kitten: Oh, really?
[10:59] Kitten: Maybe that was your plan all along.
[11:02] Kitten: Catch me off guard and have me fall to my death.
[11:06] Clucky: Well, I have news for you. I'm a rooster, and I have wings.
[11:11] Clucky: I can fly. Well, maybe not fly, but I can certainly glide from high places.
[11:18] Clucky: And I always stick the landing.
[11:21] Kitten: How could that be my plan? I didn't even know you were up here.
[11:27] Clucky: Will you please be careful? This ledge is not very big.
[11:31] Clucky: You claim you didn't know I was up here, but maybe you're just pretending to be surprised, so I'll trust you.
[11:40] Kitten: What? That doesn't even make sense.
[11:45] Kitten: Listen, I think we got off on the wrong foot.
[11:48] Kitten: My name is Kitten Adeline Daniels.
[11:52] Kitten: Maddox, the girl who lives in the house, rescued me from the Humane Society.
[11:57] Kitten: She has adopted me and made me my own little space in the shed below.
[12:02] Clucky: Maddox, you say? Well, that sounds like something she would do.
[12:09] Clucky: And you do have the family name, but I don't know.
[12:14] Clucky: You look mighty suspicious.
[12:17] Kitten: Suspicious? What do I look suspicious of? I'm a small grey kitten.
[12:24] Clucky: A small grey kitten with very long claws and very pointy teeth.
[12:30] Clucky: Like the wolf in Little Red Riding Hood. We all know how that ended.
[12:35] Kitten: I'm just a small grey kitten. You can trust me. Look how little I am.
[12:41] Clucky: That's what you want me to think. And then when I let my guard down, then pow!
[12:48] Kitten: Ah! Falling! Ah!
[12:52] Clucky: You're on the edge!
[12:55] Kitten: Ah! Is this how it ends for me? I'm too young to die!
[13:01] Clucky: Hold on with your claws. I'll help you.
[13:04] Kitten: What? What's happening?
[13:06] Clucky: Come on, Brewster. You've got to help. And we can get you back on this arch together.
[13:13] Kitten: Ah! What?
[13:16] Clucky: Come on. A little bit further. You got it.
[13:22] Clucky: Are you okay?
[13:25] Kitten: Okay? You saved my life. I'm going to hug you.
[13:31] Clucky: Whoa! Whoa! Easy there.
[13:33] Clucky: I'm not really a hugger. Your feathers are tickling my nose.
[13:39] Clucky: Forgive my suspicions before, kitten. You have my humblest apologies.
[13:45] Clucky: Let me properly introduce myself. I am Sir Cluckington Daniels of Carrington.
[13:54] Kitten: Well, it's nice to meet you, Sir Cluckington.
[13:58] Clucky: There's no need to bow. It's not a royal title.
[14:03] Clucky: You can call me Clucky. That's what my friends call me.
[14:07] Clucky: And since you saved my life, I'd say we're friends.
[14:12] Clucky: I'm the only rooster in the neighborhood.
[14:15] Clucky: See down there? Those are my hen friends. Say hello, ladies.
[14:19] Bridget: Hi. I'm Bridget.
[14:22] Brigitte: Hello. I'm Brigitte.
[14:24] Bella: Cheerio. I'm Bella.
[14:27] Hens: Hi.
[14:29] Clucky: This here is Kitten Adeline Daniels. She just moved into the shed next to our coop.
[14:35] Clucky: She's not as scary as her teeth and claws make it appear.
[14:39] Hen: Are you sure? Those teeth look awfully sharp.
[14:43] Hen: You're not going to eat us in our sleep?
[14:46] Hen: Or pounce on us in the yard?
[14:48] Kitten: I assure you, I'd do no such thing.
[14:50] Clucky: She speaks true, ladies.
[14:53] Clucky: She just saved me from falling off this perch to my death.
[14:58] Clucky: How about we meet up tomorrow and I'll show you around?
[15:02] Kitten: That would be wonderful. Thanks, Clucky.
[15:05] Clucky: No problem. I'll see you tomorrow. I'd better get back down.
[15:10] Clucky: It's starting to get dark and the ladies get worried if I'm gone too long.
[15:15] Kitten: Okay.
[15:16] Kitten: Bye, Clucky. Hasta mañana, Kitten.

[16:01] Amy Daniels: It's the Kitten and Clucky Joke of the Day!
[16:08] Amy Daniels: Hey, Kitten. Who's the funniest animal on the farm?
[16:13] Kitten: I don't know. Who?
[16:15] Amy Daniels: A comedy hen.
[16:18] Clucky: Oh, Clucky.
