1 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: Hello, friends, and welcome to sleep Tight Stories. This is 2 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 1: a story about a cat named Yuki. Yuki loves living 3 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: with her mom. She has the best of everything and 4 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: loves her life. One day, her mom says she is 5 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:42,199 Speaker 1: bringing Yuki a great, big surprise. Yuki can't wait. What 6 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: could it be? Yuki and coro Yum yum, yum yum yum. Oh. 7 00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: Mom has certainly outdone herself this morning. This is absolutely 8 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: the best breakfast I have ever had in my whole life, 9 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,759 Speaker 1: Yuki thought, as she gobbled down everything in her bowl 10 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: as fast as possible. The raspberries, the coconut, and the 11 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: banana flavors are simply the best, she thought as she 12 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: slowly walked away, licking her nose as she went. After 13 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: a breakfast like that, I think it best that I 14 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: make my way to the living room window and take 15 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 1: a rest on the sofa. I do need my beauty 16 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: sleep and the sun is shining just perfectly in the window. Princess. 17 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: I hope you enjoyed your breakfast, said Nico, her mom, 18 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: as she took a photo of her for her social account. 19 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: Don't be too long. Only while I am gone, I'll 20 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: be back from work with some new food from Chalmet 21 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 1: for you to try, and a great big surprise for you. 22 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: Be good and see you later. Nko gave Yuki a 23 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: quick scratch on her head as she went out the 24 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: door to catch a taxi to work. Yuki stretched me 25 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: out and promptly fell asleep. Yuki was a young cat 26 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: who ate nothing but ice cream. She ate ice cream 27 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: for breakfast and dinner every single day of the week. 28 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: Her favorite was Abaloni flavored, but lately she was leaning 29 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: towards miso at least for dinner. Breakfast was always fruit 30 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: flavored because her mom wanted her to be healthy and 31 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: fruit is good for you. Being the princess and a 32 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: popular cat on social media, she was pampered and spoiled 33 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: with all the toys and luxuries that a cat of 34 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: her station could desire. She had all manner of toys, 35 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: scratching posts, brand name clothes, and a comfy bed in 36 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: every room. One was even in the shape of an 37 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: ice cream coat, which she could climb inside of. She 38 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: used to have a climbing track that she could use 39 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: to explore the whole apartment, but she started finding it 40 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: difficult to climb and jump when she got a little older. Besides, 41 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: as a princess, should she need to climb and jump 42 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: to day was going to be just like any other day. First, 43 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: Yuki would sleep in the living room while the sun 44 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: shone on her bed. Then she would slowly make her 45 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: way into the dining room, where she would lay in 46 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: another bed and clean herself. Cleanliness was very important to Yuki, 47 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: and she would groom herself for a couple of hours 48 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: every day. One time, she had missed a spot of 49 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: ice cream on her coat and Niko gave her a shower. 50 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: She never wanted to experience that again. After a day 51 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: of relaxation, Yuki's stomach, which was her internal clock, started 52 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: to make noises. She knew her human mother would soon 53 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: be home and it would be time to eat, followed 54 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: by an evening of being pet and top in the 55 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 1: soft tones she loved. It also meant dressing up in 56 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,239 Speaker 1: various costumes that her human mom would make her wear 57 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: and all the photos that would follow. She didn't mind 58 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 1: too much as long as she didn't have to wear 59 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: that costume that made her look like a dog. She 60 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: did not like dogs. Yuki heard the door handle and 61 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 1: the door chime. That could only mean one thing. It 62 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:37,799 Speaker 1: would soon be time to eat again more ice cream. 63 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: I wonder what flavor it will be tonight, she thought 64 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: as she slowly got up and stretched. Oh yeah, it 65 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: also meant that her mom was home, which was nice, 66 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: but Yuki always thought of her stomach first. As she 67 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 1: slowly walked to the front door, he noticed her mom 68 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: was carrying a strange box and the box was moving, 69 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: and then she noticed the smell. No, it couldn't be. 70 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 1: It couldn't hi, Yuki, I have a big surprise for you, 71 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: just like I promised this morning, said Niko as she 72 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: bent down to pet Yuki as she rubbed against her hair. 73 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: Standing straight up. I have to work in the office 74 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: again and will only be working from home a couple 75 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 1: times a week. And I am worried that you might 76 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: be lonely while I am gone. So I got you 77 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: a little brother to keep you company during the day. 78 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: He's still very young, but he has already been trained. 79 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: Oh no, it's true, Yuki thought. She could see his eyes, 80 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: hear his yelping, and smell all that awful scent. It 81 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 1: was a dog. Why I'm not lonely. In fact, I 82 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: love having this whole apartment to myself all day. If 83 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: she was so worried, she could have gotten me another 84 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: stuffed toy to cuddle with, but not this. And then 85 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: the situation got worse as Nico opened the crate to 86 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: let the puppy out. Yuki, I want you to meet Kor, 87 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: and the labrador puppy ran out and headed straight for Yuki, 88 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: and before she could protest, arch her back or hiss, 89 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: Kor was on top of her, licking her head and 90 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: chewing on her ears before leaving her alone to run 91 00:07:54,560 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: all over the apartment. So cute, look, Yuki, he loves 92 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 1: you already. Yech, no way, I am letting that happen 93 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: again as she ran to the relative safety of her 94 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:16,679 Speaker 1: ice cream shaped bed. When Koro came over, she hissed, 95 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: which made him stop at first, but eventually, with all 96 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: the happiness that only a puppy has, he ignored Yuki's 97 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: protests and squeezed right in there with her, licking her 98 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: head before falling to sleep. Oh my, you two look 99 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 1: so cute together, said Niko as she was taking pictures 100 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 1: to share with her friends and on her social account. Oh, 101 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: thought Yuki, why must I be tortured so? Sometime through 102 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: the night, the puppy must have gotten up and left you, 103 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: Yuki alone. Maybe he ran away, she hoped. Her stomach 104 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: started making rumbling noises as she was extremely hungry, as 105 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: she was at every meal time. Yuki and Korro, your 106 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: breakfasts are ready. Just then, Yuki heard what sounded to 107 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: her ears like a herd of elephants slipping and sliding 108 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: down the hall. Coor got there first and was eating 109 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 1: so fast that his mouth was almost a blur. Yuki 110 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:44,319 Speaker 1: arrived and started eating her bowl of fruit flavored ice cream, 111 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: this time strawberry. As Nico came by and said, I 112 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: have to rush out the door this morning as I 113 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: have an early meeting. You two be good together. At 114 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: the same time she went out the apartment door, Horo 115 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 1: had finished his bowl of kibble and was licking the 116 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 1: bowl vigorously with food all over his face. Ah no manners, 117 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: not Yuki, as she carefully but quickly gobbled down her food. 118 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: But before she could finish, Coro's head was in her bowl, 119 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 1: quickly finishing the ice cream and then proceeding to lick 120 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 1: the bowl clean before he ran off into the living room. 121 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 1: Yuki stood in shock, not believing what had just happened. 122 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: She shook the tension from her body and slowly walked 123 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: out to the living room, hoping that if she had 124 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: a nap, perhaps this nightmare she was in would end. 125 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: She walked to the living room and was about to 126 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: climb up onto her bed on the sofa when she 127 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: saw that the dog was all already there asleep. Say 128 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: would this nightmare ever? And Yuki was forced to lay 129 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: on the floor. Imagine me, a princess, a star of 130 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: social media, being forced to lay on the floor while 131 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: that stinky dog gets to lay in my bed. What 132 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: is my world coming to? Something must be done. As 133 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 1: she lay there, she started formulating a plan. Yuki looked 134 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: up to make sure Kra was still asleep. Ugh he 135 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: was lying on his back with his head hanging off 136 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 1: the edge of the couch. She slowly got up and 137 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: slinked to the kitchen to hatch her plan. She was 138 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: going to get him to come into the kitchen while 139 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: she hid behind the fridge, and as soon as he 140 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: came in, she would scare him so badly he would 141 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: hide in the bedroom until dinner. To get his attention, 142 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: she rattled his food dish, a sound no dog can resist. 143 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: As She quickly ran to her hiding place with a 144 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: great big thump. She heard him rushing out to see 145 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: if there was more food as he sniffed around. She 146 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: waited and waited, and then just as he turned his 147 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: back to her, she jumped out and led out as 148 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: loud a hiss as she could muster. He ran off, 149 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: barking loudly down the hallway towards the bedrooms. Huh, that 150 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: will do it, she thought. He'll hide in there all 151 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: day and I can have my bed back and have 152 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: a proper sleep. But before she could leave the kitchen, 153 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: Coro came running back as fast as he had left 154 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: and started running around Yuki. Jumped on top of her, 155 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: pulled on her ear, and gave her a great big lick. 156 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 1: He then ran out to the living room, jumped up 157 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: on Yuki's bed, and smiled at her before he promptly 158 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: fell back to sleep. That night, Yuki had a terrible sleep. 159 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: She had the worst nightmare. She dreamed that she was 160 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: in a room full of labrador puppies who were constantly 161 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: licking her, making her whole body wet so disgusting. Yuki, 162 00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: and Korro your breakfast already, he heard, yet again what 163 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: sounded like a herd of elephants, slipping and sliding down 164 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: the hall. Yuki made it to her dish in time 165 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: to see Coro finish up his food and lick the 166 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: bowl around the floor. She settled in to enjoy her breakfast, 167 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: keeping one eye on the dog and the other on 168 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: her bowl. Coro ran off down the hallway, ignoring Yuki 169 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: as she quickly ate good, maybe now I can eat 170 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: in peace. Before she could finish her thought, Kor ran 171 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: back into the kitchen, slipped on the floor, banged into Yuki, 172 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: and dumped what was left of her ice cream all 173 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: over the place. He then proceeded to quickly lick it 174 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: all up before running into the living room, where he 175 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: laid down on the couch to have a nap. This time, 176 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: Yuki was angry and was determined to scare him badly 177 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: enough that he would hide in the bedroom all day, 178 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: so she carefully picked up his bowl and silently carried 179 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: it into the bathroom. This time, I will jump on 180 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: top of him. That will surely work. She rattled his 181 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: bowl and with great effort, jumped on top of the 182 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: bathroom counter and crouched down low so that he couldn't 183 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: see her. She heard him run first to the kitchen, 184 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: slipping and sliding, and then turn around and run down 185 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: the hallway towards the bathroom. Wiggling her body. She was 186 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 1: poised to strike in he came, and as she pushed 187 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: off to jump, she slipped and promptly fell straight into 188 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: the toilet. She started me owing loudly. This is so terrible, 189 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: she thought. The toilet the water, and I can't get out. 190 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: I could be stuck in here until mom comes back, 191 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: which could be seemingly forever. And then Kro reached into 192 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: the toilet, grabbed Yuki's neck with his mouth and pulled 193 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: her out onto the floor, grabbed a nearby towel and 194 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: covered her. Yuki let out a long meow of thanks. 195 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: That night, when Niko came home, she noticed the huge 196 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: mess and called Yuki and Korro to the bathroom and 197 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: asked which one of you made this mess in the bathroom? 198 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: Was it you kor was it you Yuki. Yuki had 199 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 1: never been in trouble before and wasn't sure what to 200 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: expect from her human mom. Would it affect the ice 201 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 1: cream supply? Then Kro stepped forward with his head down 202 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:23,679 Speaker 1: you naughty dog. Nico said, don't do this again. Okay, 203 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: I will close the bathroom door from now on, but 204 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: try harder to be a good pop. He took the 205 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 1: blame and saved me from my mistake. Yuki thought, maybe 206 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: he isn't so bad after all. The next morning, during breakfast, 207 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 1: Yuki offered Coro some of her ice cream, and they 208 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: both shared the bed in the living room, and over 209 00:17:55,359 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 1: time became inseparable friends. And that's the end of our story. 210 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,400 Speaker 1: Good Night, sleep tight.
