Wait until I tell you about all the cats we had!

讓我來告訴你我們有的貓！

Hahaha!

哈哈哈！

Just a heads up though. Some of these cats are dead.

事先說明，有些貓已經過世了

They all lived nine happy lives. None of them had a painful death.

他們都有幸福快樂的九條命，沒有任何一隻痛苦的過世

...

...

Except for one... maybe... we don't know.

除了一隻...或許...我們不知道

We'll get into that.

我們等等會提到他

Hahaha,

哈哈哈

So, cats!

所以，貓咪

Some people think that cats are jerks and not as loyal or loving as dogs.

有些人認為貓是混蛋 而且不像狗一樣忠誠或可愛

And they're right.

而他們是對的

But if you think about it,

但如果你想一想

Cats im-PURR-ove our lives every day!

貓讓我們的每一天更完“毛”美

Think back to YouTube in 2006,

回想起2006年的Youtube

What was popular?

什麼最熱門？

Cat videos.

貓咪影片

If it wasn't for cats, we wouldn't have YouTube as a platform

如果不是為了貓，我們根本不會用Youtube這個平台

Which, I could make the argument is another jerk thing that cats did.

同時，這個論點是也是另一個貓做的混帳事

Now, I'm a cat lover,

我是愛貓者

and anyone who says they dislike cats has obviously never snuggled up with a cat

任何不喜歡貓咪的人很明顯不曾揉貓

and had a purr in your chest as you pet it for so long that you both fall asleep,

而且一邊摸他 讓他在你胸口呼嚕直到你們都睡著

and all your anxieties melt away, and the only thing you care about is your fragile feline friend.

所有的焦慮都消失 你唯一在乎的是你柔弱的貓夥伴

Or they're allergic.

或過敏

Honestly, I think I'm slightly allergic to cats as well.

老實說，我對貓也有輕微過敏

'Cause every time I snuggle up with one,

因為每次我磨蹭貓咪

my eyes get all watery,

我的眼睛開始流淚

my nose gets all stuffy.

我的鼻子開始堵塞

But like...

但你想

*SnNNniFFFFFFff*

(吸

I can deal with that.

我可以接受

Maybe this is what love feels like.

或許這就是戀愛的感覺

People like to put everybody into 2 categories,

大家喜歡把所有人分成兩種

Either you're a dog person,

狗派

or a cat PURR-erson,

或貓

00:01:16,500 --> 00:01:18,340 but why do I have to pick just one?

“毛”派

Can't I look at these two animals and say

但為什麼我只能選一方？

that both of them have good qualities that make them amazing pets,

為什麼不能看著這兩個動物並說

why can't I pick both?

雙方都有值得成為絕佳寵物的好特質

I...

為什麼不能兩邊都選？

I'm bisexual for animals!

我...

...wait...

在動物上我是雙性戀！

That being said, here's all the cats I had growing up.

...等等...

So our family had just moved to our new house

話這麼說，這些是我成長過程中有的貓

and we're all getting ready to go to church,

當我們剛搬進新家

when my older brother, who was outside for some reason, instead of getting ready,

全家準備出門上教堂時

heard noises coming from a bush.

而我的哥哥不知道什麼原因在院子 當他該準備出門時

And when he went to investigate, he found a little baby tabby kitten.

聽到從草叢傳來的聲音

He told my parents about the cat and they said, "It's mom is probably looking for it,

當他上前一看 他發現一隻小虎斑貓

but if the cat was still there when we come back from church,

他告訴爸媽而爸媽說 “他的媽媽或許在找他”

then we can let it inside."

“但如果我們從教會回來後他還在”

And after we got back,

“我們就養他”

my brother checked the bush,

回家後

and the cat was still there!

我哥查看草叢

So, we took her in, we fed her,

貓咪還在！

and we decided to name her Shady after Eminem's "The Real Slim Shady", because she was

所以我們帶他進家門 喂他

an obnoxious cat, and didn't like us at all.

決定命名為Shady取自痞子阿姆的“The Real Slim Shady“

"Yeah, but you so cute though!"

因為她是隻無禮的貓 而且一點都不喜歡我們

And that's how our family got our one and only cat.

“是啦但是你超可愛的”

One cat is enough, there were no more cats.

而這就是我們第一隻也是唯一一隻貓的由來

Until one night, when I was sitting at the kitchen table,

一隻就夠了 沒有其他貓咪

and through the window of the back door,

直到某天晚上，當我坐在餐桌

I saw two yellow eyes staring at me.

從後門的窗戶

And as a kid, I still thought monsters were real!

我看到兩個黃眼睛瞪著我

So I pointed it out to my family, "Hey, there's eyes outside."

還是小孩的我還是以為怪獸是真的

And everyone turned and was like,

所以我指給家人看說 : “看，有眼睛在外面”

"What the?"

所有人轉頭看一臉

So we opened the back door,

"什麼鬼？"

and a piece of the night just walked into the house

所以我們打開後門

like it lived there or something.

一片夜晚就這樣走進屋子

"Does this mean we have bad luck?"

像他住在這裡之類的

Apparently, just waltzing in our house uninvited is a very effective strategy to get adopted,

“這是壞運的意思嗎？”

because she ended up living with us for the rest of her cat life.

顯然，不被邀請的情況下滑進屋是很有效的領養策略

My older sister loved Sailor Moon,

因為她最後和我們度過剩下的貓生

and in the show there was this black cat named Luna-

我姊姊喜歡美少女戰士

Spoiler Alert: Luna's actually an alien that can turn into a human sometimes,

在劇情裡有一隻名叫露娜的黑貓

but most of the time she's just a cat-

暴雷警告：露娜其實是可以變身成人類的外星人

so we named the cat after her!

但在多數時候她只是隻貓

And little ol' Luna fit great in our home.

所以我們把她這樣命名

We were your standard nuclear family with two cats.

小貓露娜和我們家很合得來

Just two.

我們是個有兩隻貓的標準核心家庭

We never got another cat ever again.

只有兩隻

UNTIL ONE DAY this other cat appeared in our backyard,

不會再有其他貓

we put Luna's and Shady's food bowls outside,

直到某一天 其他貓出現在後院

which meant our backyard was basically a cat sanctuary for any cat that could jump our fence,

我們把露娜和Shady的飯碗放在外面

and sometimes we would see this calico cat hanging out in our backyard.

這代表後院基本上是跳得過圍牆的貓的秘密基地

We didn't know if she already had a home,

有時我們會看到這隻三花在我們後院

and she would run away from us if we got close,

我不知道她是已經有主人

so...

而當我們接近時她會馬上跑走

We left out a third food bowl for her.

所以...

And then she invited some of her siblings along,

我們幫她留了第三個飯碗

cause two other cats decided to chill in our backyard.

然後她邀請她的一些兄弟姊妹過來

And one of the cats was a boy,

因為新增了兩隻會在後院閒晃的貓

which meant we had to get all five cats

其中一隻是公的

And just like that, we more than doubled the amount of cats we had.

這代表我們要把全部五隻結紮

We were FELINE pretty good.

就這樣，我們有翻倍的貓咪

Three more cats added to the family,

我們覺得"喵"常好

cause why not?

我們家庭新增了三隻貓

That's the PURR-fect amount of cats if you ask me!

因為，何不呢？

Haha,

如果你問我 這是完"毛"美的貓咪數量

I'm gonna name them-

哈哈

NO!

我要幫牠們命名為

What?

不！

We're not getting three more cats.

蛤？

Two is enough.

我們不會再多養三隻貓咪

Wha? We can't just kick them out.

兩隻已經夠了

*facepalm* We're gonna find them a new home,

蛤？我們不能就這樣趕他們出去

but we're not keeping them.

我們會幫他們找個新家

... *sighs* Okay.

但我們沒有要養他們

Also, you're not allowed to name them.

...(嘆) 好吧

wHaT?

同時，你也不可以幫牠們命名

If you name them, then you'll get attached to them.

ㄏ蛤ㄚˊ？

And we're not keeping them.

如果取名，你會對他們產生感情

So since our mom banned us from naming the cats,

而我們沒有要養他們

we called them: the Calico cat,

因為媽媽禁止我們取名

and the two other ones.

我們叫他們：三花,

And we kept on calling them this until our mom found them a new home.

和另外兩隻

Turns out that their new home was OUR home,

我們持續這樣叫他們，直到替他們找到新家

cause my mom never found them a new home!

結果他們新家就是我們家

So we just left them food outside, and they were happy with that relationship.

因為媽媽不曾幫他們找個新家！

They would let you pet them, sometimes,

所以我們放食物在後院，他們對這樣的關係感到開心

and even sit on your lap, but if you tried to pick them up,

他們會讓你摸，有時候

they would hiss and bite you.

甚至坐在你腿上，但如果你試圖抱起來

They did not like being picked up. Or being inside.

他們會哈氣和咬你

They were feral cats.

他們不喜歡被舉起，或待在室內

One time it was raining, so we thought it would be a

他們是野貓

good idea to bring the calico cat inside, but she freaked out!

有一次在下大雨，我們覺得

She hissed and scratched us,

抱三花進屋是好主意，但她抓狂了

She hated being inside more than she hated the rain.

她邊哈氣邊抓我們

And BY THE WAY, cats can be VERY loud.

比起下雨她更討厭在屋內

Like, as loud as dogs.

而且聲明一下，貓可以非！常！吵！

They just never raise their voices.

像，狗吠一樣吵

They're too proper for that.

他們只是選擇不大聲

So since she didn't like being inside,

這樣太失禮了

We just...

因為她不喜歡在室內

...put her back outside in the pouring rain.

所以我們就

We ended up naming the boy cat Spot,

把她放回下大雨的屋外

the other cat we named Pepper,

最後我們幫公貓取名為斑點

and the calico...

另一隻叫胡椒

...we didn't change her name.

而三花

We named her Calico.

...我們沒有改她的名字

That's like naming a dog Golden Retriever or Chihuahua.

我們叫她三花

I don't know if that's sad, but,

就像取名狗狗為黃金獵犬或吉娃娃一樣

you know what is sad?

我不知道這聽起來有沒有很糟，但

One day Spot just...

你知道什麼很糟嗎？

disappeared.

有一天班點就...

He stopped showing up to the house, and we never saw him again.

消失了

I hope he found a good home, but, who knows, y'know?

他不再出現在院子，而我們再也沒見過他

no i'm sorry but actually i don't know

我希望他找到一個好人家， 但，誰知道？你懂的

Maybe he went off to start a second life-

不我很抱歉但事實上我不知道

or a fifth or sixth life-

或許他去開啟他的第二人生

haha, get it, cause they have nine lives...

或第五或第六---

wow apparently James isn't funny anymore maybe it's because of all the puns

哈哈懂嗎？因為貓有九條命...

Yeah, but he's probably dead.

*哇,看來James因為他的爛雙關而無趣了*

And then...I was in high school when Shady died.

是啦但他或許去世了

She had a good home with us, but...

然後...在我高中的時候Shady去世了

It was her time to go.

在我們家她有很好的生活,但...

So we were down to three cats and we never got another cat ever again.

該是她離開的時候了

BUT THEN ONE DAY my parents are out on a walk,

所以貓咪數量減少到三，而我們再也沒有新的貓

and my mom saw a scrawny black kitten on the side of the road and she said,

但是有一天當我父母在散步時

*gasp* "Can we keep it?"

媽媽在路邊看到一隻瘦巴巴的小黑貓，然後她說

But my dad said, "NO! KEEP WALKING, KEEP WALKING."

(吸氣)“我們可以養嗎？”

And then on their way back from the walk,

但我爸說: ”不行！繼續走，繼續走“

for some reason my dad didn't take a different route,

然後在回程路上

the cat was still, there, meowing at them!

某些原因爸爸沒有選擇其他路線

So my parents brought her home, and my twin sister named her Pepsi.

貓咪還在那裡，對著他們喵

My sister really loved Pepsi.

所以我父母帶她回家，我的雙胞胎姊妹替她取名為Pepsi

I was more of a Coke person myself.

我姐妹真的很愛Pepsi(百事)

But when my sister went off to college,

我比較喜歡可口可樂

and I stayed home for community college,

但我姐妹去上大學時

we let Pepsi outside one day...

我留家念社區大學

...and she didn't come back.

某天我們讓Pepsi出門

We didn't know how to tell my sister that our cat was missing...

...然後她不曾回來

...so we didn't.

我們不知道怎麼跟她說貓咪不見

But we were all really worried,

...所以我們沒說

we put up "Missing" posters,

但我們都非常擔憂

And after almost two months of being missing,

我們貼尋貓啟事

SHE JUST APPEARED IN THE BACKYARD!

兩個月的失蹤後

I don't know what happened in that two month period,

她就這樣出現在後院！

she looked fine, maybe she got adopted by another family,

我不知道那兩個月發生了什麼

and now some poor family is missing their cat Salem.

她看起來還好，或許被另一個家庭收養

Maybe she went out looking for my sister and got lost,

而現在有可憐的家庭在想念他們的貓Salem

maybe she started acting in some Japanese TV shows, who knows?

或許她去找我姐妹然後迷路

But, we found her.

或許她去一些日本電視劇演出，誰知道？

We didn't even tell my sister that our cat had been missing until after we found Pepsi,

但，我們找到她了

so,

我們甚至沒跟我姐妹說貓不見過，直到我們找到她

she wasn't very happy about that.

所以，

Then, Luna passed away.

對於這件事她不是很開心

It was sad, but...

然後，露娜過世了

cats don't live forever.

很傷心,但...

Sorry.

貓咪不會永遠活著

Sailor Moon wasn't even a good show anyway.

抱歉

Now longtime Odd1sOut fans might know this next story.

反正美少女戰士也沒那麼好看

My older brother found another kitten at the gym he worked at,

而Odd1sOut老粉或許知道接下來的故事

brought her home, and named her Azula.

我哥哥在他去的健身房找到另一隻小貓

But the name Azula didn't stick because we found out Azula was a dude.

帶他回家並命名她為Azula

I was the one, by the way, who saw Azula's...

但Azula這個名字沒有持續，因為我們發現他是公的

firebenders...

順道一提，我就是那位，看到Azula的...

...and told everyone,

火箭筒...

just wanted to get that part of the story straight.

...和告訴大家

So, Azula's name had to change, and while this was happening,

只是想迅速解故事的這個部分

we had a French foreign exchange student living with us,

所以，Azula必須改名，在這段期間

and she didn't know the word for "kitten",

有個法國交換學生和我們一起住

so she called him, "Ze Baby Cat",

她不知道英文”小貓“的詞

and so we all started calling him the "Baby Cat", and now that's his name, Baby Cat,

所以她叫他 ”寶寶貓“

that's how we got his name, Baby Cat.

所以我們持續叫他”寶寶貓“，而這就是他的名字

Since we're on the topic of pets, I have something that I probably should have mentioned a while ago.

這就是他名字的由來

For the most part, I try to keep this channel goofy and lighthearted,

因為我們在談寵物的話題，我有些先前就想說的話

which is probably why I waited so long to tell you this,

多數時候，我試著讓這個頻道保持古怪和輕快

but around Christmas of 2017, my dog Georgie passed away.

或許是為什麼我這們久才告訴你們這個

You might remember her in some of my older videos,

但2017聖誕節前後，Georgie過世了

she was 13 years old, and just like the cats, it was her time to go.

你或許記得她曾出現在一些舊影片

Yes, it was sad, but, that's what happens to pets.

她13歲而且就像那些貓，是她該走的時候了

They become your best friend, but they're not in your life forever.

沒錯這很難過，但這就是有寵物必定發生的

So if you have pets, remember to appreciate them now.

他們變成你最好的朋友，但他們不會永遠在你生命裡

I wouldn't have changed anything about Georgie's life.

所以如果你有寵物，記得珍惜當下

She was a good dog.

我不會想改變Georgie生命裡的任何事

Sorry, that part got a little...

她是隻好狗狗

PURR-sonal!

抱歉，這段很有點...

Haha!

私人 (Purr=貓咪呼嚕雙關)

*Clap*

哈哈！

And my dog, Poppy, did not take Georgie's death very well,

(拍)

so my parents had to get an emotional support dog

我的狗Poppy不太能接受Georgie過世的事實

for their dog, and they got Jacks, cause he likes to jump,

所以我父母為了他而找了一隻情感支持犬

so he was their "Jumping Jacks". Aww, what a good name.

取名為Jack因為他喜歡跳

Hello everyone. It's been a while since I posted one of this things.

所以他是跳跳捷克，歐多麽好的名字

Between Thanksgiving and YouTube Rewind, I've been pretty busy.

嗨囉各位，距離上次上傳這些已經間隔了很久

Speaking of YouTube Rewind...

在感恩節和YouTube年度回顧這段期間 我很忙碌

what you guys think of it?

說到YouTube年度回顧...

I mean, I liked it.

你們覺得如何？

And I'm not just saying that because I had a speaking role in the video.
