那天早上，农场除了干草棚里的活动外，非常安静。 Except for the activity up in the hayloft... the farm was pretty quiet that morning.
楼上的吵闹声并没有打扰到睡在谷仓里的狗。 The noise upstairs didn't disturb the dogs that slept in the barn.
他们可以在任何情况下睡觉。 They could sleep through anything.
但是很多其他的动物都被头顶上的奔跑吵醒了。 But a lot of the other animals were awakened... by all that scurrying overhead.
有些人就接受了。 Some of them just accepted it.
有些人很生气。 Some were pretty annoyed.
还有一些人在暗中策划报复。 And a few quietly plotted revenge.
但在干草棚里，气氛却大不相同。 But the mood was very different up in the hayloft.
农场猫……刚刚产下第一窝幼崽。 The farm cat... had just given birth to her first litter.
她决心要做一个好母亲。永远不要对她的小猫大喊大叫。 She was determined to be a good mother... and never yell at her kittens.
但这种方法不会持续太久……因为Milo，她的一只小猫…从一开始就是麻烦。 But that approach would not last very long... because Milo, one of her kittens... was trouble from the very beginning.
他一会走路……他开始在干草棚的边缘徘徊。 As soon as he could walk... he began wandering to the edge of the hayloft.
“麦洛，亲爱的，”他的妈妈说，“这不是一个好主意!” "Milo, dear," his mother said, "that's not a good idea!"
“回来，麦洛!”她喊道。 "Come back here, Milo!" she yelled.
米洛在家庭之外遇到的第一个动物是奥蒂斯……谷仓里的一只小狗。 The first animal Milo met outside of his family was Otis... one of the barn puppies.
“你是一只看起来很奇怪的猫，”米洛说。 "You're a strange-looking cat," Milo said.
“哦，我不是猫。我是一只狗，”奥蒂斯回答。 "Oh, I'm not a cat. I'm a dog," Otis replied.
麦洛想弄明白这一点，于是说: Milo tried to figure this out and said:
“哦，好吧，一条狗。我明白了。但是…真的，在内心深处，我们都是猫，对吧?” "Oh, all right, a dog. I understand. But... really, deep down inside, we're all cats, right?"
“不,”奥蒂斯吠叫。“没有。内心深处，我是一只狗。 "No," Otis barked. "No. Deep down inside, I'm a dog.
我是一个狗。” I'm a dog."
然而，他们似乎知道他们会多么需要对方……米洛和奥蒂斯成了最好的朋友。 Nevertheless, as if they knew how much they would need each other... Milo and Otis became best friends.
很快，对麦洛来说，这是一个大日子的开始。 Pretty soon, it was the beginning of a big day for Milo.
小猫们现在已经足够大了，可以离开干草棚，看看谷仓外面的世界。 The kittens were now big enough to leave the hayloft... and see the world beyond the barn.
像往常一样，麦洛遇到了麻烦。 As usual, Milo got into trouble.
他是第一个开始喊吃的。 He was the first to start calling out for food.
“麦洛，吃完你的早餐……否则小狗就会被吃掉!”他的妈妈喊道。 "Milo, finish your breakfast... or the puppies will get it!" his mother yelled.
对麦洛来说，她似乎经常大喊大叫。 It seemed to Milo she yelled a lot.
“麦洛，你听到了吗?” "Milo, did you hear me?"
“麦洛，我已经告诉过你很多次了……请不要踩在鸡身上。” "And Milo, I've told you again and again... please, don't walk on the chickens."
“现在，仔细听着，”米洛的妈妈说……再一次试着轻声说话。 "Now, listen carefully," Milo's mother said... once again trying to speak softly.
“这是码头，下面是河。 "This is the dock and down there is the river.
现在，你永远，永远不要太靠近码头的边缘。 Now, you must never, never go too close to the edge of the dock.
每个人都明白了吗?” Everyone understand?"
“太近是什么?”米洛问道。“这是?这是不是太……?” "What's too close?" Milo asked. "Is this? Is this too clo...?"
“麦洛，回来，”他的母亲要求他。 "Milo, get back here," his mother demanded.
但是米洛，他被河水冲走了。 But Milo, he was swept away by the river.
他妈妈不得不去追他。 And his mother had to go after him.
“你们都回码头去。”她命令道。 "All of you, back on the dock," she ordered.
“现在。我不在的时候你要乖一点。麦洛，麦洛，我来了!” "Right now. And behave while I'm gone. Milo, Milo, I'm coming!"
“哦，麦洛!”他妈妈说。 "Oh, Milo!" his mother said.
“看看你。你没事吧?” "Look at you. Are you all right?"
“是的,”米洛呜呜呜。 "Yes," Milo meowed.
“你能跟我回岸边吗?” "Do you think you can follow me back to the shore?"
“我……我…我想是的，”米洛说。 "I... I... I think So," Milo said.
“好吧，小心点。”母亲命令道……并开始游泳。 "All right, be careful," his mother ordered... and began swimming.
“好吧。” "All right."
“好吧。我不会大喊大叫的，”他妈妈说。 "All right. I'm not going to yell," his mother said.
“我很高兴你没事。 "I'm just glad you're all right.
现在把自己擦干，像这样……跟我回家吧。” Now dry yourself off, like this... and follow me back home."
“我们不能游回去吗?”米洛问道。“那很有趣。” "Can't we swim back?" Milo asked. "That was fun."
“米洛!在这里!” "Milo! Get over here!"
几个月过去了，农场里嗡嗡作响……伴随着夏天的声音。 The months passed, and the farm was humming... with the sounds of summer.
麦洛和奥蒂斯长大了，可以自己在外面玩了。 Milo and Otis grew big enough to play outside by themselves.
麦洛有一些新的藏身之处，他迫不及待地想试试。 Milo had some new hiding places he couldn't wait to try out.
奥蒂斯在院子里嗅了一会儿。 Otis sniffed around the yard for a while.
“你在管子里，麦洛。再试一次。” "You're in the pipe, Milo. Try again."
“他是怎么做到的?”米洛很好奇。 "How does he do that?" Milo wondered.
他又试了另一个地方。 And he tried another spot.
“哦，不是穿靴子的猫的老把戏，”奥蒂斯呻吟道。 "Oh, not the old puss-in-boots trick," Otis groaned.
“猫在罐子里!”奥蒂斯喊道。 "Cat's in the can!" Otis shouted.
然后麦洛就溜到另一个藏身处去了。 And Milo slipped off to another hiding place.
骗过狗的鼻子可不容易。 It wasn't easy fooling a dog's nose.
奥蒂斯立刻开始追踪他的踪迹……然后又找到了他。 Otis started following his trail immediately... and found him again.
麦洛尝试了一个更硬的地方。 Milo tried a harder spot.
但奥蒂斯也在那里找到了他。 But Otis found him there too.
现在麦洛需要一个绝妙的主意。 Now Milo needed a brilliant idea.
他想到了一个奥蒂斯永远闻不到他的地方。 He thought of a place where Otis could never sniff him out.
它工作。 It worked.
但麦洛怀疑这是否真的值得。 But Milo wondered if it was really worth the trouble.
第二天，鸡舍里一片哗然。 The following day, the henhouse was in an uproar.
麦洛和奥蒂斯去看看是怎么回事。 Milo and Otis went to see what all the commotion was about.
突然，一只鸡的声音响起: Suddenly, one chicken's voice rang out:
“好吧,你μ。 "Okay, you mu.
清除!清除!” Clear out! Clear out!"
所有的母鸡都咯咯叫着离开了……因为那是歌洛莉亚说的一只又抓又啄的小鸡……到鸡舍的最上层。 And all the hens left in a clucking flurry... because that was Gloria talking... a young chicken who had scratched and pecked her way... to the top rung of the henhouse.
歌洛莉亚想一个人待着是有原因的。 Gloria had a good reason for wanting to be alone.
“好了，伙计们，”格洛丽亚咯咯地笑着说。“我的第一个蛋。 "There it is, fellas," Gloria cackled. "My first egg.
奥蒂斯，我去传话的时候，你看着点。” Keep an eye on it, Otis, while I spread the word."
奥蒂斯非常认真地对待观察鸡蛋的任务。 Otis took the egg-watching assignment very seriously.
“你听说歌洛莉亚的事了吗?” "Did you hear about Gloria?"
“哦,先有蛋?所以它终于发生了。” "Oh, the egg? So it finally happened."
“她是待在家里还是回去工作?” "Is she staying at home with it or is she going back to work?"
“你想让我把它踢回去吗，奥蒂斯?”米洛问道。 "You want me to kick it back to you, Otis?" Milo asked.
“现在,停止!”奥蒂斯说。“我不小心踢了它。 "Now, stop that!" Otis said. "I kicked it by accident.
我们不能开始玩蛋游戏。现在，别管它了。” We can't start playing games with the egg. Now, just leave it alone."
“看，这一点都不好笑，”奥蒂斯说。"歌洛莉亚给了我们一份工作" "Look, this isn't funny," Otis said. "Gloria gave us a job to do."
“我们还要在这个鸡窝里呆多久?” "How long do we have to stick around this henhouse?"
“直到歌洛莉亚回来。” "Until Gloria comes back."
也许你没有意识到，麦洛……但这对我来说是重要的一天... .“因为”“嗯，也许你没有意识到……今天我要成为一只看门狗。” Maybe you don't realize it, Milo... but this is a major day for me... . "because“" Well, maybe you don't realize that... this is the day I've become a watchdog."
当然，看到一只狗和一只猫在看一只蛋……引来了一群看热闹的人……和寻找刺激。 Naturally, the sight of a dog and a cat watching an egg... brought the usual string of gawkers... and thrill-seekers.
一些奇怪的声音把麦洛从鸡舍里带了出来。 Some strange noises brought Milo out of the henhouse.
这是怎么回事? What was all this about?
“嘿，你能把那个拿出来吗?”米洛说。 "Hey, could you out that out?" Milo said.
“嘿!” "Hey!"
但鸟儿不理他。 But the bird just ignored him.
“嘿! "Hey!
你唱歌很臭。你会辞职吗? Your singing stinks. Will you quit it?
你好。” Hello in there."
“奥蒂斯，奥蒂斯，奥蒂斯，奥蒂斯。过来，奥蒂斯。”一只青蛙呱呱地叫道。 "Otis, Otis, Otis, Otis. Come here, Otis," a frog croaked.
“这是什么?”奥蒂斯说。“我应该坐在鸡蛋上。” "What is it?" Otis said. "I'm supposed to be egg-sitting."
“奥蒂斯，是你的猫友。他把整个农场都搞疯了。 "Otis, it's your cat buddy. He's got the whole farm crazy.
赶快做点什么吧。奥蒂斯,来吧。” Do something, and quick. Otis, come on."
青蛙说得对。 The frog was right.
在那一刻，米洛在逗一只螃蟹……它摇摇摆摆地穿过农家院子。 At that moment, Milo was teasing a crab... that was waddling through the farmyard.
但这一次，有人打败了麦洛。 But this time, someone got the best of Milo.
“他活该。”青蛙呱呱地说。 "He deserved it," the frog croaked.
“嘿，他是我的朋友，”奥蒂斯说。 "Hey, he's my friend," Otis said.
“他还是活该。” "He still deserved it."
看管蛋的麻烦在于你必须时刻保持警惕。 The trouble with guarding an egg is you have to always be on guard.
在外面，米洛和奥蒂斯突然想起: And outside, Milo and Otis suddenly remembered:
“鸡蛋!” "The egg!"
“冻结!”奥蒂斯吠叫。 "Freeze!" Otis barked.
“敢碰那个蛋，你就死定了!” "Touch that egg and you're dead meat!"
“我是认真的，朋克!”奥蒂斯咆哮道。 "I mean it, punk!" Otis growled.
“只是尝试。让我的狗狗们开心。” "Just try something. Make my doggy day."
“放松。我不碰…你的臭鸡蛋。”刺猬抱怨道。 "Lighten up. I didn't touch... your cruddy egg," the hedgehog grumbled.
“可能烂。” "Probably rotten anyway."
麦洛只想再看那只奇怪的动物一眼。 Milo wanted just one more look at that weird animal.
这声音引来了一群当地的窥探者。想挖点丑闻出来 The noise attracted a group of local snoops... looking to dig up some scandal.
但米洛的注意力却在别的地方。 But Milo's attention was focused somewhere else.
“麦洛，”奥蒂斯说，“我想我们要有孩子了。” "Milo," Otis said, "I think we're having a baby."
小鸡擦干身子，看着奥蒂斯，叽喳叫道: The chick dried itself off, looked at Otis and cheeped:
“妈妈!妈妈!妈妈!妈妈!妈妈!妈妈?” "Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy?"
“哦，不，我不是你妈妈，”奥蒂斯说。“你妈妈是只鸡。” "Oh, no, I'm not your mommy," Otis said. "Your mommy's a chicken."
其他动物告诉奥蒂斯，他最好赶紧把小鸡带到歌洛莉亚那里。 The other animals told Otis he'd better take the chick to Gloria, and quickly.
他所做的。但是小企鹅总是回到奥蒂斯身边。 Which he did. But the chick kept coming back to Otis.
“妈妈。” "Mommy."
“妈妈，妈妈，妈妈，妈妈。” "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, Mommy."
“我告诉过你，我不是你妈妈，”奥蒂斯一遍又一遍地说。 "I told you, I'm not your mommy," Otis said again and again.
“现在回到歌洛莉亚那里去吧。 "Now go back to Gloria.
你明白吗?你是胆小鬼，不是狗。一只鸡。” Do you understand? You're a chicken, not a dog. A chicken."
“汪，”小鸡偷看。“汪,汪,妈妈。” "Woof," the chick peeped. "Woof, woof, Mommy."
再一次，他们试图让这只糊涂的小鸡……加入其他鸡的行列。 Once again, they tried to make the mixed-up chick... join the other chickens.
“好吧，你想成为一只狗吗?”奥蒂斯吠叫。“这是你必须要做的。 "Okay, you want to be a dog?" Otis barked. "Here's what you've got to do.
你必须是一个粗暴的，坚强的…“卑鄙的斗狗，像这样。” You've got to be a rough, tough... "mean, fighting dog, like this."
那小妞一点也不喜欢这个声音。 The chick didn't like the sound of this at all.
“好吧，小狗。”奥蒂斯命令道。“轮到你。试一试。试试看吧。” "Okay, puppy," Otis ordered. "Your turn. Give it a try. Give it a try."
“妈妈，小鸡妈妈。”小鸡偷看着，跑向歌洛莉亚。 "Mommy, chicken mommy," the chick peeped, and ran to Gloria.
“哦，它起作用了，”奥蒂斯想。 "Oh, it worked," Otis thought.
“我会想念他的。我会想念他的。 "I'll miss him. I'll miss him.
但至少他最后发现自己是一只鸡。” But at least he finally found out that he is a chicken."
“你确定你知道我们要去哪儿吗?”奥蒂斯问道。 "Are you sure you know where we're going?" Otis asked.
“当然。码头就在这边，你从来没见过河。 "Sure. The dock is right this way, and you've never seen the river.
“来吧，”麦洛说。 "Come on," said Milo.
奥蒂斯预感到麻烦就要来了。 Otis had a feeling there was trouble ahead.
“哇，看看这个东西，奥蒂斯，”米洛说。 "Wow, look at this thing, Otis," Milo said.
“你觉得我们能吃吗?” "Do you think we can eat it?"
“谁会吃这样的东西?”奥蒂斯回答……然后继续向河边走去。 "Who would eat something that looks like that? " Otis replied... and continued on to the river.
然后事情就发生了。 And then it happened.
当奥蒂斯坐在码头上浪费时间的时候… When Otis was just sitting on the dock, wasting time...
奥蒂斯擦干身子，回来算账。与……那件事。 Otis dried off and came back to settle the score... with that... That thing.
米洛,与此同时……偶然发现了一个绝佳的藏身之处。 Milo, meanwhile... stumbled on an excellent hiding place.
他确信这次奥蒂斯再也找不到他了。 He was sure Otis would never be able to find him this time.
“奇怪!”米洛喊道。 "Surprise!" Milo shouted.
“我终于骗到你了!” "I finally fooled you!"
“麦洛，”奥蒂斯叫道，“离开那里……在事情发生之前。” "Milo," Otis barked, "get out of there... before something happens."
但是做的事情。 But something did.
“快,跳的!这将是有趣的!”米洛喊道。奥蒂斯不知道该怎么办。 "Quick, jump in! This'll be fun!" Milo shouted. Otis didn't know what to do.
“嘿，这太棒了。来吧!快点,奥蒂斯!跟我来。” "Hey, this is great. Come on! Hurry up, Otis! Come with me."
也许米洛玩得很开心，但奥蒂斯很害怕。 Maybe Milo was having a terrific time, but Otis was pretty scared.
他知道他必须去救麦洛，所以他沿着河边跑……努力跟上，但没成功多少。 He knew he had to rescue Milo so he ran alongside the river... trying to keep up, and without much success.
然后奥蒂斯看到前面有一座桥。 Then Otis saw a bridge up ahead.
如果他快点，也许他能从桥上跳下去，跳进箱子里。 Maybe he could jump off the bridge into the box if he hurried.
但他来得太晚了。现在只有一个办法能追上麦洛了。 But he was too late. There was only one way to catch up with Milo now.
“对,男孩。” "On, boy."
我们开始吧。 Here we go.
神。 God.
但这也不起作用。奥蒂斯只是游得不够快……和河……把麦洛带到更下游的地方。 But that didn't work either. Otis just couldn't swim fast enough... and the river... took Milo farther downstream.
米洛其实并不担心，直到他失去了奥蒂斯的视线。 Milo wasn't really worried until he lost sight of Otis.
突然，他听到灌木丛中有什么东西在动。奥蒂斯吗? Suddenly he heard something moving in the bushes. Was it Otis?
绝对不会。 Definitely not.
麦洛试图在盒子里低着身子，这样熊就看不到他了。 Milo tried to duck low in the box so the bear wouldn't see him.
但是盒子正飘向饥饿的动物。 But the box was drifting right towards the hungry animal.
“好险，”米洛抬起头说。 "Close call," said Milo, poking his head up.
但不幸的是，这太快了。熊看到了盒子里的东西。 But unfortunately much too soon. The bear saw what was in that box.
然后是奥蒂斯。 Then came Otis.
他勘察了现场，他知道有时候狗也会…狗该做的事。 He surveyed the scene and he knew sometimes a dog's gotta do... what a dog's gotta do.
突然，奥蒂斯开始游走……自言自语说:“我在做什么? Suddenly Otis started swimming away... and said to himself, "What am I doing?
那只熊是我的十倍大。” That bear is 10 times my size."
奥蒂斯想出了一个更合理的计划。 And Otis came up with a much more sensible plan.
他跑上河岸，把熊从米洛身边引开。它工作。 He ran up on the riverbank, leading the bear away from Milo. It worked.
熊跟着他，忘记了……橙色的猫在漂浮的盒子里。 The bear followed him and forgot all about... the orange cat in the floating box.
麦洛继续往前走，但他有点担心了……因为河水开始变快了……越来越快。 Milo kept drifting along, but he was getting a little concerned... because the river was beginning to move faster... and faster.
米洛一切都好，除了身上湿了。 Milo was all right, except for being wet.
他已经跟丢了奥蒂斯……他离家越来越远了。 He'd lost track of Otis now... and he was drifting farther and farther from home.
当月亮升起的时候…河水把麦洛带进了森林深处。 By the time the moon rose... the river had carried Milo deep into the forest.
他不时看到树丛中有几只眼睛在闪烁。 Now and then, he saw some eyes flashing among the trees.
他听到了神秘的叫声……和咆哮……在夜里哭泣。 And he heard mysterious hoots... and growls... and cries in the night.
他沿河而下的旅行不再有趣了。 His trip down the river wasn't fun anymore.
它变成了一种孤独和可怕的东西。 It had turned into something lonely and frightening.
他开始希望自己没有跳进这个盒子……他开始希望自己能回家。 He began to wish he'd never jumped into this box... and he began to wish he was home.
在水里，米洛可以看到月亮的倒影。 In the water, Milo could see the reflection of the moon.
它似乎和他一样在颤抖……在这个寒冷、雾蒙蒙的夜晚。 It seemed to be trembling as much as he was... in the chilly, misty night.
睡觉是不可能的。 Sleep was not possible.
他在黑暗中继续前行。希望能找到早晨……就在拐弯处等着。 He drifted on through the darkness... hoping to find the morning... waiting just around the bend.
当日光……麦洛看到河岸上有一个农场。 When daylight came... Milo saw a farm on the riverbank.
在那快乐的一刻，他以为自己回家了……欢呼雀跃。 For one happy moment, he thought he was home... and cried out for joy.
但他又看了看。 But he looked again.
那些牛都是陌生人……他想起他已经远离他的农场了。 Those cows were all strangers... and he remembered he was far away from his farm.
他不知道什么时候才能再见到它。 He didn't know when he would ever see it again.
奥蒂斯没有放弃追逐……绝对不是。 Otis had not given up his chase... not by a long shot.
他沿着河岸奔跑，穷追不舍。 He was running along the riverbank in hot pursuit.
为了打起精神，他开始唱一首狗行军歌。 To keep up his spirits, he began singing a dog marching song.
狗来了强壮而勇敢，汪汪。 Here comes the dog Strong and brave, woof.
狗来了，你的命… Here comes the dog Your life he...
然后他决定跳过整个过程。 He then decided to skip the whole thing.
奥蒂斯沿河而行，直到河水流入湿地。他来到了一个令人生畏的地方……一个他从未见过的地方 Otis followed the river until it flowed into the wetlands... and he came to a forbidding place... a place like none he'd ever seen before:
枯枝沼泽……一个沼泽，里面有骷髅树…没有叶子或树枝生长……那里没有生物可以生存……除了可怕的枯木鸟 The Deadwood Swamp... a bog where skeleton trees... grew without leaves or branches... and where no creature could live... except for the dreaded Deadwood birds.
其中一个坐在一个熟悉的木箱上。 And one of them was perching on a familiar wooden box.
“好吧，小混混。”奥蒂斯吼道。 "Okay, punk," Otis barked.
“有盒子。现在，猫在哪里?” "There's the box. Now, where's the cat?"
“可怜的猫。猫好伤心，”小鸟叫道。 "Poor cat. Cat so sad," the bird croaked.
“看盒子里。” "Look in the box."
奥蒂斯做好准备，偷看了盒子里的东西……只看见一根黑色的羽毛。 Otis prepared himself and peeked in the box... and saw only a solitary black feather.
鸟儿咯咯地叫着飞走了。 And the bird flew away, cackling.
事实上，米洛根本不在枯木沼泽附近。 In fact, Milo was nowhere near the Deadwood Swamp.
他的箱子被卡住后，他跑了。 After his box got stuck there, he ran.
他以最快的速度逃离了那些鸟儿。 He ran from those birds as quickly as he could.
现在他发现自己在一个燃烧的山谷里。 Now he found himself in a burning valley.
地面很热，烟熏得他眼睛刺痛。 The ground was hot and the smoke made his eyes sting.
他必须离开那里。 He had to get out of there.
麦洛一直跑到一片开阔的草地上。在那里他看到了一种从未见过的动物。 Milo ran until he came to an open meadow... where he saw a kind of animal he'd never seen before.
他觉得很饿，立刻想: Feeling pretty hungry, he immediately wondered:
“那是你能吃的东西吗?” "Is that something you can eat?"
好吧，也许不是，但即使这种生物不是食物…也许他藏了一些。 Well, perhaps not, but even if this creature wasn't food... maybe he had some hidden away.
“喂，有人吗?”狐狸叫道。 "Hello, someone there?" the fox called.
麦洛把自己藏得很好。 Milo kept himself well-hidden.
“哦，好吧，该午休了。” "Oh, well, time for lunch break anyway."
这正是麦洛想听到的。 Which was exactly what Milo wanted to hear.
他尾随着狐狸，等着看看它的午餐菜单上有什么。 He trailed the fox, waiting to see just what was on his lunch menu.
“我必须非常小心，”麦洛想。 "I must be very careful," Milo thought.
“我必须确保不让别人看见我。 "I must make sure I stay out of sight.
最重要的是，我必须保持绝对的沉默。” And above all, I must keep absolutely silent."
“我知道我把它放在这附近的某个地方了。”狐狸说。 "I know I put it around here somewhere," the fox said.
“哦，在那儿!” "Oh, there it is!"
麦洛垂涎三尺……当他看到狐狸抱着一只丰满多汁的麝鼠。 And Milo's mouth watered... when he saw the fox holding a plump, juicy muskrat.
狐狸感到有人在看着他。 The fox felt someone watching him.
“你好。那里是谁? "Hello. Who's there?
在这么美味的一顿饭上冒险是没有意义的。” No sense taking chances with a lovely meal like this."
他开始埋葬他的午餐…他认为没人能找到它。 And he began burying his lunch... where he figured no one would ever be able to find it.
“是的，给你，我亲爱的麝鼠。 "Yeah, here, my precious muskrat.
“你在那里应该是安全的，直到晚饭时间。”狐狸说。 "You should be safe there till dinnertime," the fox said.
麦洛慢慢地从树上爬下来。看着狐狸跑过地平线。 Milo crept slowly down the tree... and watched the fox run over the horizon.
然后，一落地……麦洛知道如何用爪子抓住一个大……美味的午餐麝鼠。 And then, once on the ground... Milo knew just how to get his paws on a big... tasty muskrat lunch.
与此同时，奥蒂斯穿过了湿地……去一个满是蛤蜊洞的海滩。 Otis, meanwhile, had traveled through the wetlands... to a beach full of clam holes.
蛤蜊也许能帮他，但狗是怎么跟蛤蜊说话的呢? A clam might be able to help him, but how does a dog talk to a clam?
他记得有一个每个人都懂的魔法词……那就是“请”。 He remembered there was one magic word everyone understood... and that was "please."
于是他走到一个蛤蜊洞前说: So he marched up to a clam hole and said:
“请原谅我。” "Excuse me, please."
但奥蒂斯遇到了比蛤蜊更大的问题。 But Otis had a bigger problem than rude clams.
云越来越黑了……一阵冷风吹过乡间。 The clouds were getting darker and darker... and a chilly wind was whipping across the countryside.
米洛离海滩有几英里远。卷入了同样的风暴。 Milo was several miles from the beach... caught in the same storm.
他有点湿了……没有奥蒂斯，他感到非常孤独……但至少他是安全的。 He got a little wet... and he felt awfully lonesome without Otis... but at least he was safe.
在岸边……奥蒂斯就没那么幸运了。 At the shore... Otis was not so lucky.
潮水涨得太快了。奥蒂斯坐过的那块石头完全被水包围。 The tide came in so fast... that the rock Otis had been sitting on... was completely surrounded by water.
很快，他的干燥的岩石就会被水淹没。 Soon his dry rock would be underwater.
海滩很远，海浪汹涌。 The beach was far and the water was rough.
他永远也游不到岸边。 He'd never be able to swim to shore.
水越来越高。 And the water was growing higher.
现在水已经淹到他的爪子了。 Now the water was up to his paws.
他必须试着游泳。 He'd have to try to swim.
他深吸了一口气，但正当他准备跳入水中时…… He took a deep breath, but just when he was ready to dive in...
“哦，别再来了。”海龟咯咯地说。 "Oh, not again," the sea turtle gurgled.
“每次涨潮……有些傻瓜被困在这里了。” "Every time the tide comes in... some fool gets stuck out here."
奥蒂斯不确定这只乌龟想要什么。 Otis wasn't sure what this turtle wanted.
“我说，听着，你到底要不要搭车回岸上? "I say, look, do you want a ride back to shore or not?
我是说，你不知道我是来救你的吗?” I mean, don't you know I came out here to save you?"
“不，”奥蒂斯说，“我不知道。” "No," Otis Said, "I didn't know that."
“好吧，现在你知道了。相处。” "Well, now you know. Get on."
“现在，待在岸上，那才是你该待的地方。”海龟嘟囔着。 "Now, just stay on the shore, where you belong," the turtle grumbled.
“谢谢你救了我，”奥蒂斯说。 "Thanks for saving me," Otis said.
“谢谢,什么都没有。 "Thanks, nothing.
下次涨潮时，我就得去救别人了。 Next time the tide comes in, I'll have to rescue somebody else.
一个生命。” What a life."
“你救了我的。” "You saved mine."
“我几乎每个月都会存钱。你知道吗?” "I save someone just about every month. Did you know that?"
“不，”奥蒂斯说，“我不知道。” "No," said Otis, "I didn't know that."
“好吧，”乌龟说，“现在你知道了。 "Well," said the turtle, "now you know.
“哦，亲爱的，回到海里去。” "Oh, dear, back to sea."
在清新明亮的天空下……奥蒂斯继续寻找米洛。 Under a fresh, bright sky... Otis resumed his search for Milo.
他看到远处有一只他认为可能有用的动物。 He saw in the distance an animal that he thought might be helpful.
“上帝。 "God.
更好的!” Much better!"
“对不起，”奥蒂斯喊道，“我在找我的一个朋友。” "Excuse me," Otis called out, "I'm looking for a friend of mine."
“我想找人一起玩。”狐狸说。 "I'm looking for someone to play with," the fox said.
“想和我比赛过河吗?” "Wanna race me across the stream?"
“我没时间，”奥蒂斯说……察觉到这只狐狸不会有任何帮助。 "I haven't got time," Otis said... sensing this fox wasn't gonna be any help.
”等。你到底是什么动物?” "Wait. What kind of animal are you anyway?"
“当然，我是一只狗。”奥蒂斯回答。 "I'm a dog, of course," Otis answered.
“你怎么可能是一只狗呢?”你没有尾巴。” "How can you be a dog? You have no tail."
奥蒂斯是愤怒。 Otis was outraged.
“我当然做的。看。” "I certainly do. Look."
“你管那叫尾巴?”这是一条尾巴。” "You call that a tail? This is a tail."
说完，狐狸笑着跳开了。 And with that, the fox jumped away laughing.
米洛,很远……偶然发现一条看起来很安全的路。 Milo, far away... stumbled upon a road that looked clear and safe.
他惊叹于这条由木头和铁筑成的道路。于是决定沿着这条路走，看看它会把他带到哪里。 He marveled at this road made of wood and iron... and decided to follow the road and see where it would take him.
但后来… But then...
麦洛及时地躲开了。 Milo had ducked just in time.
“那是什么?”“它可能会从我身上碾过去。” "What was that?" he wondered. "It could've run right over me."
但米洛下定了决心。 But Milo was determined.
他下定决心，要沿着树林和铁路走。 He made up his mind to follow the wood and iron road.
不过他肯定会继续留心寻找另一个这样的……吵闹的动物。 Although he'd certainly keep on the lookout for another of those... noisy animals.
铁路把米洛带到一片开着野生棉花花的草地上。 The iron road led Milo to a meadow of wild cotton blossoms.
现在麦洛已经很累了。 Now Milo was plenty tired.
也许有人能帮他找个安全的地方休息一会儿。 Maybe someone could help him find a safe place to rest for a while.
也许这样的人…她的 Maybe someone like... her.
“你看起来又累又渴，”一只鹿低声说。 "You look tired and thirsty," a deer whispered.
“跟我来。 "Follow me.
鹿唱着:“和我一起穿越云海。” "Bound with me through fields of clouds," the deer sang.
“我不确定猫会不会跳，”米洛说。 "I'm not sure cats know how to bound," Milo said.
“好吧，让你的心引导，你的脚步会跟随。 "Well, just let your heart lead and your feet will follow.
我们会像微风一样跳跃。 And we'll bound and leap, like a gentle breeze.
跳跃着，像被释放的微风。跳跃，当然还有跳跃。” Bound and leap, like a zephyr set free. Bound, and of course, leap."
“嗯，我不知道。我做的时候看起来不太对劲。” "Well, I don't know. It just doesn't look right when I do it."
“跟我玩吧，朋友。来,嬉戏。嬉戏。” "Frolic with me, friend. Come, frolic. Frolic."
“好了，好了，看，我找到了。我嬉戏。 "Okay, okay, look, I've got it. I'm frolicking.
我嬉戏。你看到了什么?” I'm frolicking. You see?"
“你现在可以停止嬉戏了，”鹿低声说。 "You can stop frolicking now," the deer cooed.
她把麦洛带到森林里一个池塘的凉水旁。 She showed Milo to the cool water of a forest pool.
“我觉得我有点累了，”米洛说。 "I think I'm a little tuckered out," Milo said.
“是的，嬉戏过度是可能的，”鹿喃喃地说。 "Yes, it is possible to over-frolic," the deer murmured.
“来，我带你去一个可以休息的地方。” "Here, let me show you a place where we can rest."
小鹿带着米洛来到一处柔软、长满青苔的地方……在森林地面上。 And the deer took Milo to a soft, mossy spot... on the forest floor.
米洛很快就睡着了。 And Milo was asleep within moments.
奥蒂斯知道他在正确的轨道上。 Otis knew he was on the right track.
他跟在米洛后面……从枯木沼泽到狐狸的草地 He had trailed Milo... from the Deadwood Swamp to the fox's meadow.
而现在，如果他继续…也许他终于能找到他思念已久的朋友。 And now, if he just kept going... maybe he'd finally find the friend he missed so much.
但现在，漫长的一天结束了……艰苦的旅行。 But now, it was the end of a long day... of hard traveling.
夜幕降临……麦洛决定在树上过夜是最安全的。 As evening was falling... Milo decided the safest place to spend the night would be in a tree.
他坐下来，看着太阳下山。想知道什么样的生物会开始活动……天黑后。 He settled down and watched the sun set... wondering what sorts of creatures would begin stirring... after dark.
“你在这里做什么?”一只奇怪的鸟对米洛说。 "And what are you doing up here?" a strange bird said to Milo.
“我想是为了躲避尖啸猫头鹰吧。” "Hiding from the screech owls, I suppose."
“对不起，对不起，”麦洛说。 "Sorry, sorry," Milo said.
“这个鸟巢是你的吗?”我不知道。” "Does this nest belong to you? I didn't know."
“是的，而且它不是一般的鸟巢，我要让你知道。 "Yes, and it's not just any nest, I'll have you know.
我是夜鸟，那是一个梦幻的鸟巢。” I'm the night bird, and that is a dreaming nest."
“你是什么意思?”米洛问道。 "What do you mean?" Milo asked.
“好吧，亲爱的猫，有人睡在那里吗……“会让他的睡眠充满了梦，”鸟说。 "Well, dear cat, anyone sleeping there... "will have his sleep flooded with dreams," the bird said.
“但这是个安全的地方……” "But it's a safe place..."
远离那些尖叫的猫头鹰。 Safe from those screech owls.
所以，在窝里安静下来，亲爱的猫……为梦想做好准备。 So settle down in the nest, dear cat... and be prepared for the dreams.
它们可能是悲伤的、可怕的或美丽的……但是睡在巢里…“梦想一定会到来。” They may be sad or frightening or beautiful... but sleeping in that nest... "dreams will surely come."
麦洛的梦开始了……几乎是在他睡着的时候。 And Milo's dreams began... almost the moment he was asleep.
首先，做一个回到农场的美梦…… First, a sweet dream about being back on the farm...
和老朋友见面。 and seeing old friends.
就在他妈妈离开他的时候…和一个溺爱孩子的保姆。 And about the time his mother left him... with a doting babysitter.
然后，我做了一个很伤心的梦。 And then came a dream that was very sad.
关于奥蒂斯的梦……还有他们小时候常在一起玩。 A dream about Otis... and how they used to play together when they were young.
还会像现在这样吗? Oh, would it ever be like this again?
他还能再见到奥蒂斯吗? Would he ever see Otis again?
它看起来是那么真实。 It seemed so real.
米洛几乎能听到奥蒂斯的声音。 Milo could almost hear Otis' voice.
但那根本不是奥蒂斯的声音。 But it wasn't Otis' voice at all.
这是地面上传来的呼救声。 It was a cry for help from down on the ground.
米洛醒了，忘记了那些尖叫的猫头鹰……他从树上爬下来……走向绝望的呼喊。 Milo woke up and, forgetting all about the screech owls... he climbed down the tree... towards the desperate cry.
一只猫头鹰俯冲下来叼走了一只田鼠，麦洛躲了起来。 Milo hid as an owl swooped down and carried off a field mouse.
尽管米洛有点害怕，但他还是跟着呼救声走。 And though he was a little scared, Milo still followed the cries for help.
谁来帮帮我! Please, somebody help me!
“我的腿卡住了，”猪叫道。 "My leg is caught," the pig cried.
“还有那只鸟，它会回来的。” "And that bird, he'll be back."
“别紧张，”麦洛说，动作很快……把猪脚放出来。 "Take it easy," said Milo, working quickly... to free the pig's foot.
“你很好，”麦洛说。 "You're fine," Milo said.
“现在，你知道有什么地方可以让我们安全吗?” "Now, do you know a place where we'd be safe?"
“嗯，和我的家人在一起，”猪说。“跟我来。” "Well, back with my family," said the pig. "Come with me."
“来吧!” "Come on!"
当猪的家人看到他回来时，他们高兴地尖叫起来。 The pig's family squealed with joy when they saw him return.
在喧闹声中，猪喊道: And over the noise, the pig yelled:
“嘿，妈妈，猫来了!” "Hey, Mom, here comes the cat!
是的，那只救了我的猫。” Yeah, the cat that saved me."
猪给了麦洛一个地方睡觉。 The pigs offered Milo a place to sleep.
第二天早上，他醒来后想: And the next morning, he woke up and thought:
“这些猪没事。 "These pigs are all right.
我的意思是，友好和善良。就是一群漂亮的猪。” I mean, friendly and kind. Just a nice bunch of pigs."
这时猪妈妈尖叫起来: But then the mother pig squealed:
“早餐!” "Breakfast!"
这个家庭的餐桌礼仪…这让麦洛很吃惊。 And the table manners of this family... came as quite a surprise to Milo.
整件事对任何一只猫来说都有点太乱了。 The whole business was a little too messy for any cat to take.
但在这个特殊的家庭里，吃饭的时候就是这样做的。 But that was the way it was done at mealtime in this particular family.
麦洛去和他的朋友告别了。脸上还沾着早饭。 Milo went to say goodbye to his friend... who still had some breakfast on his face.
“来吧。”猫说。 "Come on," said the cat.
“你至少得保持脸干净。” "You've at least got to keep your face clean."
告别之后，米洛回想起他曾经陪伴的那个家庭。 After goodbyes, Milo reflected on the family he'd stayed with.
“天哪，”他想，“难怪他们叫他们猪。” "Jeez," he thought, "no wonder they call them pigs."
经过一整天的旅行，麦洛来到了一条小溪边。 After a whole day of traveling, Milo arrived at a brook.
在水里，他能看到一些看起来很美味的鳟鱼。 In the water, he could see some delicious-looking trout.
经过一些考虑……他想出了抓住它的办法。 After some consideration... he figured out how he could catch one.
“那只猫一定是在开玩笑，”附近的一只浣熊低声说。 "That cat has got to be kidding," muttered a nearby raccoon.
但突然……米洛抓住了一次。 But all at once... Milo caught one.
浣熊想要它。 And the raccoon wanted it.
“嘿，猫，好鱼，”浣熊说。 "Hey, cat, nice fish," the raccoon said.
"可惜它会是那个离开的" "Too bad it's gonna be the one that got away."
但这只浣熊并不是唯一对米洛的鱼感兴趣的。 But the raccoon wasn't the only one interested in Milo's fish.
他们争夺那条鳟鱼，直到熊看到了什么东西。更大、更美味: They battled over the trout until the bear caught sight of something... bigger and tastier:
一只猫。 A cat.
麦洛知道他没有机会在地面上与熊对抗。但也许是在空气中。 Milo knew he wouldn't have a chance against the bear on the ground... but perhaps in the air.
米洛是安全的，但他没有得到他的午餐。 Milo was safe, but never did get his lunch.
很快，他又有了一次吃饭的机会。 Pretty soon, he had another chance for a meal.
“海鸥蛋可能很好吃，”麦洛想。 "Some seagull eggs might be tasty," Milo thought.
突然，一只海鸥在空中尖叫: But suddenly, up above a seagull screamed:
“猫!猫!宝宝们旁边有只猫!” "Cat! Cat! There's a cat near the babies!"
一群鸟儿齐声唱起了歌。“猫!猫!” A chorus of birds joined in. "Cat! Cat!"
“来吧，把它啄走!”把它从窝里啄开!” "Come on, peck him away! Peck him away from the nests!"
海鸥在啄他，伤害他。 The seagulls were pecking him, hurting him.
只有一条路能让麦洛逃脱。 There was only one way for Milo to escape.
“这一切就为了吃顿午饭?”麦洛心想。 "All this just for a lunch?" Milo thought to himself.
“那么，谁听说过吃海鸥蛋呢?” "Well, who ever heard of eating seagull eggs anyway?"
米洛从海里爬了出来，感觉又咸又湿又冷……有时他看上去也好多了。 Milo climbed out of the sea, feeling salty, wet and cold... and there'd been times he'd looked a lot better too.
但至少他在一间看起来温暖而安全的小屋附近上岸了。 But at least he came to shore near a shack that looked warm and safe.
如果他知道谁住在棚屋里，他会有不同的想法。 He would have thought differently if he'd known who lived in the shack.
米洛的毛开始变干了。他终于感到安全了... ."他看了看外面的情况。 Milo's fur was beginning to dry off... and he was feeling safe at last... ."unfilhelooked at what was right outside.
“保持冷静，”麦洛想。“没关系…只要他不……哦,不!” "Stay calm," Milo thought. "It's all right... as long as he doesn't... Oh, no!"
麦洛想藏起来，但熊马上就闻到了猫的味道……米洛知道无论如何他必须比这只熊聪明。 Milo tried to hide, but the bear smelled the cat right away... and Milo knew somehow he was going to have to outsmart this bear.
“好吧,硬汉!来抓我吧!”他喊道…冲回抽屉。 "Okay, tough guy! Come and get me! " he shouted... darting back into a drawer.
那只熊张开饥饿的嘴去抓米洛。 The bear reached for Milo with an open, hungry mouth.
“不，不，在上面!”米洛喊道。“在这里! "No, no, up here!" Milo yelled. "Up here!
来吧，把手伸进去抓住我! Come on, just reach in and grab me!
太迟了! Too late!
嘿,这里! Hey, down here!
想进来吗? Wanna come in?
我会帮助你的。我会拉着你的鼻子进去。 I'll help you. I'll pull you in by your nose.
“猫在哪个抽屉里?” "Which drawer has the cat?"
“现在，给你一个小提示。” "Now, here's a little hint."
这时，熊愤怒了。 Now the bear was raging mad.
他已经受够了在抽屉里翻找一只猫。 He'd had enough of rummaging through drawers after a cat.
现在他要把整个棚屋都拆了。 Now he was going to pull the whole shack apart.
看起来很糟糕，但米洛还有最后一个计划。 It looked bad, but Milo had one last plan.
他跳到梳妆台上。熊越走越近。 He jumped on top of the dresser. The bear came closer.
麦洛能感觉到他的爪子尖。 Milo could feel the tips of his claws.
就在熊差点把他吃掉的时候……“完美的投篮，”米洛说，感觉很好。 And just when the bear almost had him... "Perfect shot," Milo said, feeling pretty good.
而熊，敲傻了……跌跌撞撞地走出小屋，想知道是什么击中了他。 And the bear, knocked silly... stumbled out of the shack, wondering what hit him.
麦洛担心熊会回来。 Milo was afraid the bear would be back.
他觉得躲在树顶上会安全得多。 He thought he'd be a lot safer hiding at the top of a tree.
但他又错了。 But he was wrong again.
从坑里爬出来是不可能的。 Climbing out of the pit was impossible.
麦洛呼救，尽管他知道没有用。 Milo called for help, even though he knew it was useless.
在这里没人会听到他的。 Nobody would hear him out here.
但有人做。 But someone did.
麦洛不敢相信他所看到的。真的是奥蒂斯吗? Milo couldn't believe what he saw. Could it really be Otis?
“别担心，”奥蒂斯叫道。“我总有办法把你弄出来的。” "Don't worry," Otis barked. "I'll get you out somehow."
“你试过爬出去吗?” "Did you try climbing out?"
“这是太深。看到了什么?”米洛说。 "It's too deep. See?" Milo said.
“我有个主意，”奥蒂斯说。 "I have an idea," Otis said.
“爬!”奥蒂斯吠叫。 "Climb it!" Otis barked.
“我觉得太短了。” "I think it's too short."
“别担心!”奥蒂斯吠叫。“我还有一个主意。” "Don't worry!" Otis barked. "I've got another idea."
“抓住末端，”奥蒂斯喊道。 "Grab the end," Otis shouted.
“我们做到了!”奥蒂斯大叫，不小心张开了嘴。 "We did it!" Otis yelled, opening his mouth by mistake.
“好吧，坚持住!”奥蒂斯咆哮……确保他咬紧牙关。 "All right, hold on!" Otis growled... making sure to keep his teeth tightly clenched.
“你没事吧?”奥蒂斯问道。 "Are you all right?" Otis asked.
“你根本不知道我经历了什么。 "You have no idea what I've been through.
熊，蛇，甚至海鸥!” Bears, snakes, even seagulls!"
但这一切都过去了。现在他们欣喜若狂……因为他们终于复合了。 But that was all behind them. Now they were bursting with joy... because finally, they were back together.
“听着。那是什么?”奥蒂斯说。 "Listen. What was that?" Otis said.
他们奔向猫的叫声，米洛突然上气不接下气。 They ran to the cat cries and Milo was suddenly breathless.
“你好。我乔伊斯。” "Hello. I'm Joyce."
“乔伊斯?” "Joyce?"
“乔伊斯!” "Joyce!"
乔伊斯和米洛似乎变得越来越友好了。 Joyce and Milo seemed to get friendlier and friendlier.
奥蒂斯从未见过如此荒谬的行为。 Otis had never seen such ridiculous behavior.
从来没有。 Never.
“乔伊斯，跟我回我的农场吧。” "Joyce, come back with me to my farm."
“我……我不知道。 "I... I don't know.
农场不是我的生活方式。” A farm isn't exactly my lifestyle."
“哦，你会喜欢的!”米洛说。“他们都会喜欢你的。我爱你。” "Oh, you'll love it!" Milo said. "They'll all love you. I love you."
乔伊斯终于答应了。 Joyce finally said yes.
三个旅行者开始了返回农场的旅程。 And the three travelers began the journey back to the farm.
麦洛有个计划。他们会找到那条河……它带走了他，跟着它回家了。 Milo had a plan. They would find the river... that carried him away and follow it back home.
乔伊斯知道树林里的河流从哪里流过。所以她领着路，麦洛在她身边……奥蒂斯跟在后面。 Joyce knew where a river flowed through these woods... so she led the way, with Milo by her side... and Otis trailing behind.
“你确定你知道我们要去哪儿吗?”奥蒂斯说。 "Are you sure you know where we're going?" Otis said.
“我没看到附近有河流。” "I don't see any rivers around here."
“相信我，”乔伊斯说。奥蒂斯咆哮道。 "Trust me," said Joyce. Otis just growled.
“来吧,奥蒂斯!”米洛喊道。“我们想在冬天之前回家。” "Come on, Otis!" Milo called out. "We want to make it home before winter."
“奥蒂斯，你在哪儿?”米洛喊道。 "Otis, where are you?" Milo shouted.
“你认识他很久了吗?”乔伊斯问。 "Have you known him long?" Joyce asked.
最后，正如乔伊斯所说，他们来到了一条河边。 Finally, just as Joyce said, they came to a river.
“我希望是对的，”米洛说。 "I hope it's the right one," Milo said.
他们顺着它逆流而上，希望能看到熟悉的东西。 They followed it upstream, hoping to see something familiar.
“对，就是这条河!”米洛喊道。 "Yes, this is the right river!" Milo cried out.
“我永远不会忘记那些瀑布。我就说她会的!奥蒂斯!奥蒂斯!” "I'll never forget those waterfalls. I told you she'd do it! Otis! Otis!"
奥蒂斯对这次旅行的进展感到很沮丧。 Otis was feeling pretty rotten about the way the trip was going.
麦洛总是和乔伊斯在一起，几乎不注意他。 Milo was always with Joyce and hardly paid any attention to him.
所以奥蒂斯做了一个决定。 So Otis made a decision.
“你们俩顺着河走。 "You two follow the river.
我要翻山越岭……由我自己。” I'm going over the mountains... by myself."
“别傻了，奥蒂斯。和我们住在一起。” "Don't be a fool, Otis. Stay with us."
“我宁愿一个人去。” "I'd rather go alone."
“嘿，奥蒂斯，你要去哪儿?” "Hey, where are you going, Otis?"
但他没有回答。 But he didn't answer.
他甚至没有回头看。 And he didn't even look back.
奥蒂斯才离开几天……当冬天的第一场暴风雪打断了我们的旅程。 Otis was only gone a few days... when the first snowstorm of winter interrupted the journey.
在雪地里走太危险了。 Traveling through the snow would be too dangerous.
麦洛和乔伊斯知道他们必须在树林里找个庇护所……等到春天。 Milo and Joyce knew they'd have to find shelter in the woods... and wait until spring.
他们在树干里度过了一个舒适的冬天。 They took a cozy winter home in a tree trunk.
而奥蒂斯则在雪地里艰难地前行。 While Otis trudged through the snow, continuing on his way.
那天下午，冬日的阳光温暖得足以融化雪……它从树上掉下来。 That afternoon, the winter sun was warm enough to melt the snow... and it came tumbling down from the trees.
奥蒂斯没事，但他很确定……他听到从某处传来的呼救声。 Otis was all right, but he was sure... he heard a call for help coming from somewhere.
奥蒂斯在雪地里奋力前行。往树林里有声音的地方去了。 Otis fought his way through the snow... heading towards the voice in the woods.
“你在哪里?”奥蒂斯大声喊道。 "Where are you?" Otis hollered.
“在这儿，”一只狗的声音呜咽着说。 "Over here," whimpered a dog's voice.
“我……我…我挖不出来。这是固体冰。” "I... I... I can't dig out. It's solid ice."
起初，奥蒂斯很恼火。 At first, Otis was exasperated.
但后来他看到了她。 But then he saw her.
“我是桑德拉，”她说。“你是谁?” "I'm Sondra," she said. "Who are you?"
”奥蒂斯。我从没见过像你这样的狗，桑德拉。” "Otis. I've never met a dog like you, Sandra."
“不,桑德拉。这是法语发音。” "No, Sondra. It's a French pronunciation."
“她是聪明的。” "She's smart too."
而奥蒂斯，在他相当严肃的一生中，第一次……开始表现得很愚蠢。 And Otis, for the very first time in his rather serious life... began acting very silly.
现在奥蒂斯开始明白米洛是怎么回事了。 Now Otis began to understand what had come over Milo.
他和桑德拉继续在积雪中嬉戏。踢起了雪，还打扰了一些……适当的邻居。 He and Sondra kept on romping through the drifts... kicking up snow and disturbing some of the more... proper neighbors.
桑德拉一直在一个小而舒适的洞穴里过冬。 Sondra had been spending the winter in a small but comfortable cave.
她和奥蒂斯决定在那里待到春天。 She and Otis decided to stay there until spring.
虽然外面刮着寒风……冬天似乎突然变暖了。 And though a chill wind was blowing outside... the winter suddenly seemed warmer.
后来，在漫长的冬天的最后几个星期里……乔伊斯正在做准备。 Sometime later, during the last weeks of the long winter... Joyce was making preparations.
时间快到了。 The time was drawing near.
“乔伊斯,你没事吧?”米洛问道。“还要吃晚饭吗?” "You okay, Joyce?" Milo asked. "Want some more dinner?
记住，你现在吃的是8个人的东西。” Remember, you're eating for eight now."
“米洛。麦洛，我想是时候了。” "Milo. Milo, I think it's time."
“好吧,”米洛说。“还记得呼吸的方式吗?” "Okay," Milo said. "Remember the way to breathe?"
“我希望那是一只小猫，”麦洛想。 "I hope that turns out to be a kitten," thought Milo.
“这是!这是一只小母猫!” "It is! It's a little girl kitten!"
“还有六个呢，麦洛。是的。” "And six more to come, Milo. Yes."
就在同一天，不远的地方……奥蒂斯和桑德拉在他的洞穴里……谁是沉重的小狗。 That same day, not too far away... Otis was in his cave with Sondra... who was heavy with puppy.
“快了吗?” "Is it going to be soon?"
“哦，随时都有可能，奥蒂斯，”桑德拉低声说。 "Well, any minute now, Otis," Sondra whispered.
“这是奥蒂斯,Jr .) !” "It's Otis, Jr.!"
奥蒂斯,Jr .) !我是一个父亲!我是一个父亲! It's Otis, Jr.! I'm a father! I'm a father!
“这是一个男孩!这是一个男孩!这是一个男孩!” "It's a boy! It's a boy! It's a boy!"
“奥蒂斯，你用得太快了。” "Otis, you ran out a little too soon."
“这是一个垃圾!这是一个垃圾!” "It's a litter! It's a litter!"
麦洛看着小猫们一天天长大。 Milo watched as the kittens got bigger every day.
小狗长得更快。 And the puppies grew even faster.
“你知道，”奥蒂斯说，“我们真的应该给它们起个名字。” "You know," Otis said, "we really should think of names for them."
“哦，我已经这么做了，”桑德拉回答。 "Oh, I did that already," Sondra replied.
“我给他们起的都是法国名字。 "I gave them all French names.
这位是让-皮埃尔。 This one is Jean-Pierre.
那是弗朗索瓦，最后那个是苏塞特。” That's Francois, and the one on the end is Suzette."
随着小猫们的长大，米洛很快注意到……其中一个长得跟他一模一样。 As the kittens grew, Milo soon noticed... that one of them was turning out to look just like him.
“我敢打赌那只会有麻烦，”麦洛想。 "I'll bet that one's gonna be trouble," Milo thought.
麦洛开始想起……当他还是农场里的一只小猫时。 And Milo started remembering... when he was a little kitten back on the farm.
他甚至还记得见到奥蒂斯的那天。 He even remembered the day he met Otis.
但随着寒冷天气的持续……奥蒂斯和桑德拉面临着一个严重的问题。 But as the cold weather dragged on... Otis and Sondra faced a serious problem.
剩下的冬天太多了，食物却太少了。 There was too much winter left and too little food.
奥蒂斯知道他得出去找一些。 Otis knew he'd have to go out and find some.
他想起了一个池塘，在那里他看到了一只熊……从冰洞里捞些鱼来。 He remembered a pond where he'd seen a bear... scoop up some fish through a hole in the ice.
也许他会幸运地在那里找到一些鱼。 Maybe he'd be lucky and find some fish there.
但是寒冷刺骨的天气已经把鱼洞冻住了。 But the bitter, cold weather had frozen over the fishing hole.
鱼被锁在坚硬的冰层里。 And the fish were locked in solid ice.
一阵冰冷的风……预示着冬季风暴的开始。 And a blast of icy wind... signaled the start of a winter storm.
这看起来对奥蒂斯很不利。 It looked bad for Otis.
风像针一样刺着他的脸。 The wind was stinging his face like needles.
他的爪子冻得麻木了。 His paws were numb from the cold.
他被暴风雨击倒了。他必须休息。 He was beaten down by the storm. He had to rest.
几乎冻……奥蒂斯躺在雪地里，准备放弃。 Almost frozen... Otis laid down in the snow, ready to give up.
但后来他开始想到桑德拉和小狗们。 But then he began thinking about Sondra and the puppies.
他们在洞穴里等着他，指望着他。 They were waiting for him back in the cave, depending on him.
如果他再也没有回来，他们会怎么样? What would happen to them if he never returned?
和奥蒂斯……奥蒂斯觉得自己恢复了力量。 And Otis... Otis felt his strength renewed.
他用力用爪子站起来……他知道他必须为桑德拉而战……给小狗，给所有的狗! He forced himself up on his paws... knowing that he had to go on for Sondra... for the puppies, for dogs everywhere!
暴风雨终于平息了，但奥蒂斯不知道自己身在何处。 The storm finally died down, but Otis had no idea where he was.
然后，在远处，他看到了希望的迹象。 Then in the distance, he saw a sign of hope.
他大声吠叫，表示外面有一只饿狗。 He barked loudly to announce that there was a hungry dog outside.
一个熟悉的身影出现在窗户里。 And a familiar form appeared in the window.
“看暴风雪吹来了什么，”米洛说。 "Look what the blizzard blew in," Milo said.
“你看起来饿了。来点鱼怎么样?” "You look hungry. How about some fish?"
“好吧，但不是对我。我的小狗。” "Okay, but not for me. For my puppies."
“你有小狗吗?我也是。” "You have puppies? Me too."
“你有什么?” "You have what?"
“我是说小猫，”麦洛喊道。 "I mean kittens," Milo yelled.
奥蒂斯知道他的家人会喜欢这些鱼的……可是他怎么才能把它们弄到那么高的地方呢? Otis knew his family would love to have these fish... but how was he going to reach them way up there?
麦洛把一切都安排好了。 Milo had it all worked out.
“嘿,奥蒂斯。” "Hey, Otis."
“我真的很想你。” "I've really missed you."
所以米洛和奥蒂斯达成了协议。 So Milo and Otis made an agreement.
他们会在春天和家人见面……然后他们一起回到农场。 They'd meet in the spring with their families... and all together they'd travel back to the farm.
春天也不远了。 And spring wasn't that far off.
在第一个温暖的日子里，就像计划的那样……麦洛带来了他的新家庭。 On the first warm day, just as planned... Milo brought out his new family.
他们等着奥蒂斯。 And they waited for Otis.
奥蒂斯在安排他的小狗时遇到了点麻烦。 Otis was having a little trouble getting his puppies organized.
在这明媚的春日…乡村里所有的动物……带着它们的幼崽来到阳光下。 And on this glorious spring day... all the animals all around the countryside... were bringing their young out into the sunshine.
藏麝鼠的狐狸现在有了一只幼崽。 The fox who hid the muskrat now had a cub.
当然，偷鱼的浣熊也这么做了。 And so, of course, did the raccoon who stole the fish.
这只鹿正在教她的小鹿玩耍。 And the deer was teaching her fawn to frolic.
麦洛和乔伊斯生了小猫。 And Milo and Joyce had their kittens.
最后,奥蒂斯到达……两家人第一次见面。 Finally, Otis arrived... and the two families saw each other for the first time.
一开始，他们有点……__.shy - At first, they were a little... __.shy-
但后来…奥蒂斯带头冲锋，小狗们向小猫们跑去……渴望见到久仰大名的猫。 But then... Otis led the charge, and the puppies ran towards the kittens... eager to meet the cats they'd heard so much about.
“这是你的米洛叔叔，”奥蒂斯对他的小狗说。 "This is your Uncle Milo," Otis said to his puppies.
“你从坑里救出来的那个?”弗朗索瓦问道。 "The one you pulled out of the pit?" Francois asked.
所有的小狗和小猫开始互相了解。 And all the puppies and kittens began to get to know each other.
“你这只狗看起来很奇怪，”苏塞特对小米洛说。 "You're a strange-looking dog," Suzette said to Milo, Jr.
“你们是狗，我们是猫，”他回答说。 "You're dogs, we're cats," he replied.
然后奥蒂斯叫道:“嘿!嘿!” Then Otis barked, "Hey! Hey!"
嘿!好了，大家安静。 Hey! All right, everyone quiet.
“安静!” "Quiet!"
当所有人都聚集在一起后……麦洛和奥蒂斯在路上领路。 And after the whole group was gathered together... Milo and Otis led the way down the road.
这条路将把他们带到他们生命开始的地方。 The road that would take them to the place where their lives had begun.
这条路可以带他们回家。 The road that would take them home.
