1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: Jum mission with Jones and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 2: It's been an interesting break. I will say that I

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 2: got COVID.

4
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 1: We're going to talk about our COVID experiences. Late I

5
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: didn't have COVID, but we'll talk about all that.

6
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 2: My cat went missing, ruthless cat.

7
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 1: Is Rufus the older one.

8
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,080
Speaker 2: He's the older one. He's the one that I got

9
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 2: off my sister.

10
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 3: Remember years ago, my sister moved to Jubai and couldn't

11
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 3: take the cat with her, so we ended up with

12
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 3: the cat.

13
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: So how long have you had Rufus?

14
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 3: Well since what year is now twenty twenty two? We

15
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,559
Speaker 3: got him when he was two years of age, so maths.

16
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: But how old is he now.

17
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 2: Well, he would be eighteen. He just turned eighteen last year,

18
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 2: so you've had him for a long time. Yeah.

19
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 3: And he's a great cat. And he was one of

20
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 3: those cats that belonged to the world. So when we

21
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 3: first in our first house, he would just wander the

22
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 3: streets and people would befriend him and they'd give him

23
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 3: food and stuff because he was a very affectionate cat.

24
00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 3: And then we moved subsequently from one hand to another

25
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 3: and to our most recent house and at the last place.

26
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 3: There was a French guy that used to live in

27
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 3: front of us, and when we moved, he didn't know

28
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 3: we'd moved. He didn't even know we owned Rufus, and

29
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 3: he was very upset the Rufous had gone missing.

30
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 2: Did he think it was he said, the cats is.

31
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 3: Gone, and oh no, they've moved to another place. So

32
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,839
Speaker 3: the new place that we're been in for probably about

33
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 3: four years now, lady next door, Tracy, has sort of

34
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 3: adopted Rufus and one day the people next door to

35
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 3: her said, oh, what's your cat's name and can we

36
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 3: feed him? And she's, well, he's not my cat, but

37
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,320
Speaker 3: his name is Rufus, and yes, you can feed him.

38
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 1: So three people were feed him.

39
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 3: There was all these and that's how we lived his life.

40
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 3: People say, are going to keep him inside? The cat

41
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 3: would not stay inside the house. And he was always just,

42
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 3: I guess a pet where you didn't really think much.

43
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 2: To do about him.

44
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: He just you're a perfect pet.

45
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 2: He was the perfect pet.

46
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 3: And then on the twenty third of December, we were

47
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 3: heading off to go up north and I dropped off

48
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 3: some cat food around at Tracy's place to to give

49
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 3: to Rufus for Christmas. And there he was sunning himself

50
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 3: on the front driveway there, and I said, I made

51
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,519
Speaker 3: roof you, look afterself, Merry Christmas, and gave him a

52
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 3: bit of a pat And as I walked away from him, as.

53
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: I can knock everything, sorry, knocked a cup of tea

54
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 1: off them. Think I'm not used to Sorry, I keep going.

55
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 2: I'm walking away. I look back at him.

56
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:25,839
Speaker 3: I had this feeling that this would be the last

57
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 3: time I'd see him, and it was so. And then

58
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 3: Tracy came and knocked on my door just recently and

59
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 3: she said, have you seen him? I said, no, I

60
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 3: haven't seen him since the twenty thirty. She said that

61
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 3: was the last time I've seen him as well.

62
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: So is this how cats pass away?

63
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 2: Yeah?

64
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: I believe so, meaning that they just go somewhere.

65
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 2: They and they're not like a dog or look at me,

66
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 2: look at me. It's just like they just go. That's

67
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 2: what they do. And that's sad, you know.

68
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: And when do you, like, when did you acknowledge that

69
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: that was it?

70
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 2: Well?

71
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 3: Today I'm acknowledging it now because I usually when I

72
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 3: leave for work in the morning, he would be there.

73
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 3: It said, I go get I made our way and

74
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,839
Speaker 3: then so I looked at building sites and things like that,

75
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 3: and people are very understanding. I said to the scaffolder

76
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 3: at the building side, I said, ah, my cat. You

77
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 3: know when I was explaining. As I was talking to him,

78
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 3: I started to get a bit welled up in mind,

79
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 3: and how do you? And he was very sympathetic. Well

80
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 3: how do I knowledge?

81
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 1: Or well, how do you feel? How's the family feeling? Sad?

82
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 2: I'm sad.

83
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: Will you get another cat?

84
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 2: No, No, that's it.

85
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 3: There's the cranky cat that lives at home at the

86
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 3: moment the other one.

87
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 1: Will that one miss it?

88
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 2: No, it hasn't even noticed. He's gone. That's terrible.

89
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 3: It'd be like me in this world, I said, suddenly disappear.

90
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 3: You pat me on the head.

91
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 1: See you left your little can of whiskers for Christmas?

92
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, you just knock a cap of tea over.

93
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to hear that.

94
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 2: I know. It's sad, isn't it?

95
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: It is sad.

96
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 2: So he disappeared in twenty twenty one. I'm putting it

97
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 2: down to twenty twenty one.

98
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 3: It's not a twenty twenty two thing, because I want

99
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 3: to be very optimistic about this year. O.

100
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 1: The cat bit of shopping up. I'm sorry to hear that.

101
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 2: Thank you for your sympathy. Jonesy and Amanda's domination
