1
Can your cat do any tricks?
2
My cat can sit.
3
Your cat can sit.
4
Winston sit.
5
Winston sit.
6
Winston.
7
Winston, get over here.
8
Hello.
9
Hi.
10
Hey, hey.
11
You like cats?
12
They're not my favorite.
13
They are sneaky and dirty.
14
They walk into their litter box and tell that shit and piss and they walk onto your counters.
15
And you're not, you can't tell me they're not.
16
I would say that would be my one big red flag, is that I'm not a big animal person.
17
I love them so much.
18
Any cat on the street, I'm like, hey kitty, kitty, how are you?
19
Are you a cat owner?
20
Not currently.
21
She went to the sushi bar in the sky.
22
- Have you ever thought about owning a cat?
23
- Yeah.
24
- What stops?
25
- I don't actually want a cat.
26
I only thought about owning one because I had mice.
27
It's your lucky day, you get to match dirty sneaky cat to owner.
28
- Oh, this is about to be hilarious.
29
- What are the types of cats?
30
- Fat and not fat?
31
- Yes.
32
How are you gonna match a cat to its owner?
33
Well, my strategy right now is to just enjoy the cat's energy,
34
and hopefully they will channel to me who their owner is.
35
Dogs look like their owners, so I guess maybe we can see if that's true for cats.
36
Let me bring the line of helims in.
37
Perfect.
38
- Hi.
39
- Hello.
40
All the cat people.
41
So everybody here loves cats.
42
Doesn't just own one.
43
Doesn't he even not love?
44
Cats, but has one?
45
Okay.
46
Yeah.
47
Yeah. Did you...
48
Hi little kitty kitty poos.
49
Hi!
50
Hi honey!
51
Oh sweet!
52
Okay, so I can like cradle.
53
We just have to get her off my boobies.
54
And I did own and breed cats as kids.
55
So it's totally fine.
56
Like they're not I don't think they're terrible.
57
So this one is a kitten.
58
It's not full grown, right?
59
Correct.
60
Where's mommy?
61
Oh, maybe the cat will tell me.
62
I think the pink collar is a stylistic choice, so we definitely need to maybe find someone that would have a a pink collar.
63
Actually, the purple pants is kind of perfect with the pink collar.
64
Like, you guys would match walking down the street.
65
Okay, let's go with Ian.
66
You look like you have a little new kitten.
67
Like, you know, got your new place.
68
Did you move recently?
69
- Like 2021.
70
- Okay.
71
No. I know I have so many dangly bits.
72
I'm kind of duck -holed.
73
She's too curious for me.
74
What's the personality of your cat?
75
My cat likes to cuddle and loves to play.
76
- Okay.
77
You have a very cute vibe, and this is a very cute cat with a cute collar, so I just feel like I'm gonna say it's yours.
78
- This is it.
79
You know, when the first time she looked at him, she did the slow blink, so I think maybe they already get along and they know each other.
80
Okay, here you go, buddy.
81
Oh, it's like a...
82
- A little chubby, is that okay to say?
83
Is it a little more?
84
- It makes some interesting noises.
85
- Oh, okay, that's okay.
86
We all have quirks.
87
- What do we have here?
88
- We got a hairless cat.
89
I could see maybe a guy choosing out this jacket for their cat.
90
Wait, what's the cat's name?
91
Flopsy.
92
- Oh!
93
- I'm holding a Manx cat.
94
I think they're called Manx cats, is that right?
95
- Sphinx.
96
- Sphinx.
97
See, she knows.
98
So I know someone who owns a hairless cat and she's super artistic.
99
I think someone who maybe is an artist or does music or something.
100
I mean, I see some artists in here.
101
I feel like this Sphinx cat belongs to you.
102
First of all, she knows the kind of cat already.
103
And also I thought with an alternative hairstyle, perhaps an alternative pet choice.
104
Are you artsy?
105
I do a lot of painting.
106
Okay.
107
I love music.
108
I bake and decorate cakes and stuff.
109
Hold on, let's see.
110
So because you don't want hair on the food, this is a semi -hairless cat.
111
I feel like this one's a good one.
112
The yellow corduroy with the yellow on your shirt.
113
I'm just, I'm feeling the Flopsy vibe.
114
Sure.
115
Alright.
116
Okay, well you get to hold Flopsy.
117
You can tell your Flopsy.
118
- Yeah, yeah, see look, he's like a natural with Flopsy.
119
- Yeah, yeah.
120
- They fit, they fit, they vibe.
121
- Oh, come on.
122
This looks like my cat.
123
- This is Winston.
124
- Come here, Winston.
125
It's okay, buddy, it's okay.
126
- This is a model cat.
127
This would be on the cover of a cat food bag.
128
And this sweater reiterates it.
129
It also kind of looks like a homemade sweater.
130
So maybe somebody that crochets.
131
It's eyes are red.
132
Yes.
133
It's really wild you guys.
134
Honestly.
135
This is probably a Persian.
136
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.
137
You want in?
138
There you go, Winston.
139
This is the kind of cat Mai used to be, and we used to do the lion cut on her also.
140
So it's kind of a high maintenance cat.
141
The hair who's high maintenance, maybe.
142
What was your name?
143
Come on over.
144
Should I go and get the cat or just leave him be?
145
No, I think Winston's okay.
146
I think that somebody made this sweater, which I think the cat really dislikes the sweater.
147
I think the consensus is we're gonna try to take it...
148
I don't wanna, I'm sorry, I don't wanna damage the cat.
149
Oh, can you not do any tricks?
150
- My cat can sit.
151
- You wanna take Winston out and see if we can make Winston sit?
152
This seems like it's gonna be a disaster.
153
- Yeah, let's do it.
154
- Winston?
155
Sit.
156
Oh.
157
Oh, this is...
158
This is a...
159
Okay.
160
Let me see something.
161
Winston, come here.
162
Okay.
163
Winston, sit.
164
Winston, sit.
165
Oh, this is your cat.
166
Because when someone listens to me, What's that?
167
Winston, get over here.
168
There we go.
169
All the girls I know with fun, vibrant hair, I'll crochet.
170
And since I think that the sweater was hand crocheted, I think that Winston is your cat.
171
Look at your little harness.
172
It's like you go on hikes and stuff.
173
Hi buddy.
174
- Get a little booty, okay?
175
- Oh, okay.
176
- Let's see, here we go.
177
Linda?
178
Oh my.
179
Linda sounds like a dragon.
180
Looks like a butterfly sounds like a dragon.
181
Oh, oh, that's like a hiss.
182
You don't like me.
183
Okay.
184
Based on that attitude, I mean, I'm gonna call you forward.
185
- Oh.
186
- Why did you call me?
187
- Well, at first you indicated you might not like, love your cat, and not that, Linda is unlovable because Linda seems very lovable.
188
Just the hisses maybe indicates an attitude, so.
189
- Do you think it has an attitude?
190
- No, the cat has an attitude.
191
- You wanna pick up the cat?
192
- Sure.
193
- 'Cause it doesn't look like it wants to be picked up.
194
So maybe the owner.
195
Okay.
196
I kind of like that.
197
Okay, no, Linda has some white hairs on her.
198
Not much.
199
Linda, you need to get your shit together.
200
Okay, I'm gonna say yes.
201
I'm gonna say yes.
202
Oh my goodness.
203
Oh, I like, okay, I kind of get the thing about cuddly with cats now, because I would definitely cuddle with this cat.
204
Well, I'm just gonna keep this one.
205
I'm not giving it back to its owner.
206
The owner is now me.
207
I have you.
208
and you i've been looking for your color palette this whole time come on over here come on over here Look, take this, Kat.
209
- Okay.
210
- Let's see.
211
What's this cast name?
212
Look at you guys.
213
Bom Bom.
214
Bun bow.
215
Oh, shoot.
216
The name's not giving you.
217
Hold on, wait, do you speak any other languages?
218
No. You don't?
219
Okay.
220
Okay, I don't think this cat is yours.
221
No, it is.
222
Alright.
223
- Okay.
224
- When you heard Bambao, what did you--?
225
- I mean, I just know it's an Asian food.
226
Out of the two options, you happen to be Asian, so I am going to do, I'ma be that person.
227
I'ma do it, okay.
228
- All right.
229
I don't want to.
230
- I don't want to, but okay.
231
Bum bow.
232
Listen, I'm gonna hand you off to this beautiful lady.
233
Please be good to her.
234
- There's a leg in the air.
235
- I know, look, this is the best.
236
- Okay, is this a safe way to hold the cop?
237
It's not gonna hurt the cat.
238
- No. - Can I lift though like this?
239
- Yeah, I think so.
240
- We'll start with that.
241
- Look, look at outside this baseball, look.
242
Do you hit two?
243
Yeah.
244
Oh, shit.
245
- That's ashtray.
246
- Okay, well, ashtray, you're definitely staying in here.
247
- I'm kind of just down to one person.
248
Come on up.
249
I think ashtray might actually belong to her.
250
- Let's have you have ashtray.
251
- Okay.
252
- Like this not just being the last one.
253
I think you would name your cat something quirky.
254
Like being like, you ashtray.
255
- You can head on back.
256
How many do you think you got right?
257
- I think I got four correct.
258
- Yeah?
259
Show of hands, who did Allie guess correctly?
260
No one?
261
What?!
262
The one person I got right-- Okay, see?
263
Three!
264
You wanna pair up with your proper cat?
265
This'll be fun to see.
266
I wonder who Linda belongs to.
267
Oh, hi everybody!
268
Oh, I had it all wrong except once.
269
I'm so glad I guessed you right.
270
Now this one!
271
I want to hear the story behind how we got here.
272
Okay, call it forward.
273
Alright, let's do this.
274
Oh, this one hits us too.
275
If you want to give him a little butt slap, he likes us.
276
It's the same thing.
277
My friend.
278
So what's the story behind this cat?
279
Oh, and it loves you so much.
280
Look at it.
281
It loves that beard.
282
So this bud was actually adopted by my fiance, and she kind of picked him.
283
I wouldn't have picked a hairless cat.
284
I want a Maine Coon.
285
But now he's here, and I love him.
286
Are you a dog person normally?
287
Or is this-- I do have a husky.
288
Oh, that's a fun contrast, the husky with this.
289
Yeah, yeah.
290
Yeah.
291
And as you can imagine, they didn't start as best friends, but now they are.
292
That's great.
293
Our husky will try to paw at him with his big paw.
294
Yeah.
295
And the cat will just like, bop, bop, bop, and slap him in the nose.
296
I was like, all right, I'm done.
297
That little patent thing is the weirdest thing, because I'm telling you, my friend too, she just sits there and be like, "Bong, bong, bong, bong, bong, bong, bong." I'm like, "What is going on?" You want to get one for the road?
298
That's for you, Pickle of Miracle.
299
- This is Pluto.
300
- I got you wrong.
301
Now Pluto seems like a little kitten.
302
- He's three and a half months old.
303
- Gotcha.
304
- Yeah.
305
- Did you just move into a new apartment?
306
- No, I'm in college.
307
- You're in college?
308
- So I was like, I need a buddy.
309
- Okay, see.
310
- Yep, see?
311
- Yep.
312
- Does he help you study?
313
- Yeah.
314
- That's gonna hold up the flashcards.
315
- He distracts me a little.
316
- Has he learned how to use cat GPT?
317
I don't want to get in trouble now.
318
- Yay!
319
Thank you so much.
320
It was so nice to meet you.
321
Bye, Kitty.
322
You put in school.
323
- This is Ashtray.
324
- Oh, you want to-- Oh, we got a head?
325
- Ashtray has a gold chain like you.
326
- Yes.
327
- And tell me the story behind his name.
328
smoke a lot of weed, so.
329
- Yeah, I was like, okay, they're asking me some of the weed.
330
- Oh look yeah look at you guys with your hands gold on.
331
Okay, I see it.
332
And then he likes to put his balls in my face.
333
Oh my gosh, she's teabagging you.
334
Thank you.
335
Bye Ashtray.
336
Bun Bao, you get over here.
337
How did you choose the name Bun Bao?
338
I love dumplings and he looks like it.
339
It's so good.
340
What language is that?
341
Oh yeah, I was gonna ask.
342
I don't want to be offensive.
343
Oh yeah.
344
But I didn't know you speak more than one language.
345
Yeah, it's Vietnamese.
346
Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha.
347
And he only knows Vietnamese.
348
Really?
349
Yeah, so he'll come, he'll like, if I tell him to come, I'll have to say in Vietnamese or he won't come.
350
That's fantastic!
351
Can you say it now?
352
I know you're holding him, but what would you say to him like in the house?
353
"Bum, bow !" Oh, "Light Eye?" Yes?
354
Mommy?
355
I was really ready to take him home seriously, but I know you already have a mommy, and I don't speak Vietnamese.
356
So, it's probably better.
357
- Now, what's behind this haircut?
358
- So, okay.
359
- Winston's little haircut.
360
- He used to be-- - Linda, leave Winston alone.
361
- He recently met my sister and I's other cat, Jojo, who just loves to attack his fur and cause so many knots that we had to shave him down.
362
- Oh no. - But they're friends.
363
Like you fight with your friends, right?
364
- No, not like that.
365
Not to worry about I have to change my whole entire look.
366
- So did you crochet the sweater?
367
- No, but I thought that was funny because - I do crochet.
368
- Oh, you do?
369
- Yeah, but I didn't make that sweater.
370
- Oh, you just bought it like that?
371
- Yeah, I just rub off.
372
- Oh, okay, well, it looks like you made it, so.
373
- He's not the spawn of Satan, he is a little angel.
374
And That was mean.
375
I mean, I thought his eyes were red, and I honestly don't trust cats anyway, so.
376
I still don't trust you, Winston.
377
And Linda don't like you.
378
And Linda scared me, so I'm gonna be with Linda.
379
That's fair.
380
- Linda, let's be blitzed her mom.
381
- Linda, I'm sorry I didn't pair you with your main man here.
382
- What is your vendetta?
383
- I don't know.
384
- What is going on?
385
Is she like that with other animals?
386
Now don't come up over here acting all funny.
387
Honey, Linda, you already hissed at me.
388
- So she is three years old.
389
She's a bomb bae.
390
- Okay.
391
- How did you choose the name Linda?
392
- So actually my name is Daniel.
393
So we rearranged the letters and then take the E out.
394
- Okay.
395
- Okay.
396
- And there you get Linda.
397
Math is hard.
398
- But I understand.
399
- So what does your cat mean to you?
400
- Uh, Linda's...
401
everything to me.
402
ever since I met her and Like we cuddle every morning and Yeah, she can go out.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
