00:00 Look into my eyes.
00:02 And in his eyes, I saw everything.
00:15 I saw the truth. Our truth.
00:18 And it transcended anything I had imagined.
00:21 Many, many seasons ago,
00:25 cats truly ruled this world.
00:29 We were larger then.
00:30 Everything made for us.
00:32 Humans were tiny creatures.
00:35 No larger than we are now.
00:37 They would groom us, feed us.
00:40 When the moon shone full, we would hunt them.
00:44 For they were more delightful to catch than even birds.
00:50 Oh, the joy of those days I saw in his eyes.
00:55 The game of cat and man.
00:59 And then, one of the humans rose amongst them.
01:03 Inspired by a dream, he told them...
01:06 Dreams shape the world.
01:09 Dreams create the world anew every night.
01:12 Do not dream the world the way it is now.
01:15 Dream of a new world.
01:17 A world where we are no longer hunted.
01:20 No longer prey.
01:22 A world we rule.
01:24 If enough of us join, we will rule.
01:27 If enough of us dream it, it will happen.
01:29 Dreams shape the world.
01:32 Word spread amongst the humans.
01:38 But for a while, nothing happened.
01:41 But then, one night, enough of them dreamed.
01:47 It wasn't many. A thousand, perhaps. No more.
01:50 They dreamed. And the next day, things changed.
01:56 We were prey to them. To dogs, their metal routines.
02:00 We were tiny, and they were huge.
02:03 So they changed the world? Made it like it is now?
02:08 Not exactly. They dreamed the world so it was always the way it is now.
02:13 There was never a world where cats reigned.
02:15 They changed it. From beginning of all things to the end of time.
02:19 It was ever thus.
02:21 Do you understand now?
02:24 Yes. Yes, I do.
02:26 Then you know what your task must be. The burden you must bear.
02:30 Are you strong enough?
02:32 Yes. I... I hope so.
02:36 Then wake, child. With my blessing.
02:50 You see, I had seen the soft underbelly of what he had shown me.
02:55 I left that night to spread the good news.
02:59 And now I travel from place to place.
03:02 I have preached to feral cats in empty places, shouting my message to the stars.
03:09 I have whispered it to cats in alleyways.
03:12 And wherever I have gone, my message is the same.
03:18 Dream it. If enough of us dream, a bare thousand, we can dream a world where no cat suffers.
03:25 Where no kittens die cold and alone.
03:28 Where all cats are queens and kings of creation.
03:31 That is my message.
