Epilogue

EPILOGUE Mamma and Papa had just returned from a weekend at the Glastonbury music festival and were exhausted! They could think of nothing more now than A WARM BATH, A CUDDLE with their TWO favourite cats and AN EARLY NIGHT. As Papa took the suitcases full of very dirty clothes upstairs, Mamma went to put the kettle on and find her furry

妈妈和爸爸周末刚从格拉斯顿伯里音乐节回来，精疲力尽！他们现在只想洗个热水澡，和他们最喜欢的两只猫抱抱，然后早点睡。 当爸爸把装满脏衣服的手提箱搬到楼上时，妈妈去把水壶烧上，发现她毛茸茸的

friends. BUT SHE COULDN'T SPOT THEM ANYWHERE! She tried the KITCHEN (where they'd normally be), their little HIDEY- HOLES under the beds, the SOFAS in the living room. No sign of them. It was then she heard a faint but distinct meow coming from the ATTIC ROOM. She climbed the stairs to the attic and found her cats curled up with a cute TABBY AND WHITE KITTEN nestled between them, meowing quietly. If she didn't know better, she could have sworn it was smiling at her! 'Papa, I think our family might have grown,' she called down the stairs, and picked the kitten up in her arms to give it a welcome cuddle. 'Who are you?' she asked.

朋友。但是她到处都找不到他们！她试了试厨房（他们通常在那里），试了试床底下的小洞，试了试客厅里的沙发。 没有他们的踪迹。就在这时，她听到一声微弱但清晰的喵喵声从阁楼房间里传来。 她爬上楼梯来到阁楼，发现她的猫蜷缩着，一只可爱的虎斑猫和一只白色小猫依偎在它们中间，静静地喵喵叫着。 如果她不知道，她可以发誓它在对她微笑！“爸爸，我想我们家的人可能又长大了。”她在楼下喊道，然后把小猫抱在怀里，给了它一个欢迎的拥抱。 “你是谁？”她问。

The new kitten gave her a little lick. Mamma put him on her shoulder and started to walk downstairs.

新来的小猫轻轻地舔了她一下。 妈妈把他放在肩上，开始往楼下走。

Looking back at his adopted brother and sister, Socks gave them a beaming grin. Toto returned a thumbs up. 'Welcome to the family!'

“袜子”回头看了看他收养的兄弟姐妹，对他们灿烂地笑了笑。 托托也竖起大拇指。 “欢迎来到我们家！”
