00:00This episode was made possible in part by
00:02The VanEckren Family, founders of LandoFrost,
00:05and the Hamel Family Foundation.
00:11It's Christmas time, and our nature-loving pals
00:14are each getting ready for the holiday
00:16in their own special way.
00:17Daisy is decorating with flowers.
00:20Ah! Man, oh, man!
00:23I love the smell of fresh pine!
00:25Ba-bam!
00:26Squeaks is making an ornament out of...
00:28what else?
00:29Cheese.
00:30Cheesy the Snowman,
00:32oh, you know, he tastes so good!
00:35Mmm!
00:36Cheesons, greetings, that's yummy.
00:39And Hal has just hung some solar-powered lights
00:41on his doghouse.
00:42Kitty, baby!
00:44Ah, there's Nature Cat.
00:46He must be doing some Christmassy thing
00:48that involves giving back to nature,
00:50because Nature Cat loves to give.
00:52There! I've made my Christmas list!
00:55Here's all the stuff I want to get!
00:58Of a what, Nature Cat?
01:00I want a new scratching post,
01:02a laser pointer,
01:03a squeaky toy,
01:04cat...
01:05Oh-la-la-la-la!
01:06Something is different about Nature Cat.
01:08He thinks that Christmas is about getting and not giving.
01:11Oh, brother, I think we're gonna need an extra-special Christmas episode
01:14to deal with this problem.
01:16Huh, would you look at that?
01:18This is an extra-special Christmas episode.
01:20Wonder what it's called?
01:21Oh, a Nature Carol!
01:25This ought to be good.
01:26I want a hula hoop and a spring toy
01:28and a video game with angry pickles and...
01:31Um, Nature Cat, you know Christmas isn't all about getting presents, right?
01:35I know that!
01:37It's about presents and lights and Christmas music and shiny Christmas baubles.
01:43I don't think that's it either-neither or either-neither.
01:46Let's just call the whole thing off.
01:47Sure it is, Hal, my pal.
01:49Take it from me.
01:50I'm the guy with the most Christmas spirit in the entire universe!
01:55Tell us, Christmas expert.
01:58What's the secret to having so much Christmas spirit?
02:00If you wanna have the most Christmas spirit,
02:03you gotta make everything bigger, shinier, louder, and more Christmassy.
02:10Take the decorations on your doghouse, for example.
02:13What about them?
02:14These are good, but they can be even better!
02:18How?
02:19You know what?
02:20Can you just sing a song about it, please?
02:22Hang lights of blue and green and red and white that is the whitest,
02:25So everyone in town can see your doghouse is the brightest,
02:28So it's gonna be a great big Christmas!
02:32A really, really great big Christmas!
02:35Even if your lights aren't solar-powered!
02:38Now let's take a look at Daisy's garland!
02:41What? What's wrong with my garland?
02:42Oh, don't get me wrong! It's very nice!
02:45Thank you!
02:46But...
02:47But what?
02:48When you string your garland all about in that December cold,
02:51Make sure you fill that evergreen with clinking clanking gold!

27:31So, do you see how much that young kitten cared for nature?
27:35I still love nature!
27:36Even more than Christmas presents?
27:38Well...
27:39Maybe.
27:40Sometimes.
27:41Looks like you need a visit from some more spirits!
27:47And so Nature Cat found himself back at home.
27:50Hey-hey!
27:51I'm back home!
27:52Hey-hey!
27:53I'm back home!
27:58But where's that spirit?
27:59Spirit of nature passed!
28:00Tell the other spirits there's no need for them to visit,
28:03because I've changed!
28:04I no longer think that Christmas is about lights and decorations and presents!
28:08Oh, buy a present!
28:10Woo!
28:11Ha!
28:12Look at yourself in the mirror, ma'am!
28:14You haven't learned a thing!
28:15Oh!
28:16Ah!
28:17Squeaks!
28:18It's just you!
28:19I am not Squeaks!
28:20I am a spirit!
28:21But you look just like Squeaks!
28:23Really?
28:24Well, could Squeaks do this?
28:27Uh, no.
28:28Squeaks definitely couldn't do that!
28:35What kind of spirit are you?
28:37I am the spirit of nature present!
28:41I'm getting a present?
28:44Oh, my goose, you're obsessed!
28:47With what?
28:48With presents!
28:49It's weird!
28:50Oh, so I am getting a present!
28:51No!
28:52It's not present like Christmas present.
28:55It's present like right now.
28:56Do I need to whiteboard it for you?
28:59Oh!
29:00I get it.
29:02But it is almost Christmas,
29:04so I should be getting some presents in the present!
29:07This is ridiculous!
29:09But I got a job to do.
29:11What's going on?
29:14I do all my traveling by cheese.
29:16Cheese.
29:17The smarter way to travel.
29:19Oh!
29:20Oh!
29:21Oh!
29:22Oh!
29:23Oh!
29:24Oh!
29:29Hey!
29:30It's Christmas!
29:31Come on!
29:32Let's go see all my friends so we can celebrate!
29:35I gotta warn you, man.
29:36I'm not sure they're in the mood to celebrate.
29:38Nonsense!
29:39Of course they are!
29:40It's Christmas!
29:41Oh!
29:42Okay.
29:43You asked for it.
29:44There's Daisy!
29:45I bet she loves how I decorated her garden!
29:48I wouldn't count on it.
29:49Just listen.
29:50This is gonna be painful.
29:51Ugh!
29:52I can't believe what Nature Cat did to my poor plants!
29:56He and his over-the-top Christmas is ruining nature.
30:00It doesn't feel like Christmas when you're angry at your friend.
30:05You don't feel very merry and you really can't pretend.
30:10Don't feel like baking cookies or a mincemeat Christmas pie.
30:15When you and your buddy just don't see eye to eye.
30:21Oh, it doesn't feel like Christmas!
30:26Hmm.
30:27Oh, no!
30:28Something tells me she doesn't appreciate my decorations!
30:31Really?
30:32What gave it away?
30:33Well, I've seen enough.
30:34Please, Ferret, take me to a different friend.
30:36Okay.
30:37Cheese time, cheese trouble, cheese, cheese, cheese.
30:45Haha!
30:46Those good old Squeaks enjoying my robotic Christmas concerto!
30:52I can't stand all this noise!
30:54It drove away all the animals and now it's driving me crazy!
30:58All of Nature Cat's Christmas celebrating is ruining nature!
31:02It doesn't feel like Christmas all because of Nature Cat
31:06And it's music that is banging with a rat-a-tat-tat-tat!
31:09You can't knit a Christmas sweater or play with Christmas toys
31:13When all the thumping and glumping is making so much noise
31:16No, it doesn't feel like Christmas!
31:21I can't believe it!
31:22How can Squeaks not enjoy my Christmas music?
31:25It's so festive!
31:26Some might call it festive, others might call it ear-splittingly loud!
31:31It's noise pollution and it's not good for Nature!
31:34But it's good for celebrating Christmas!
31:36Oh, tell me, Spirit, why are you showing me all this?
31:40Because you can't save Nature without your friends!
31:43I have friends!
31:44In fact, I have a best friend!
31:46Take me to my best friend, Hal!
31:48As you wish, as you please!
31:51Stand here, under the time travel cheese!
31:58Ah, there he is!
32:00My best buddy, Hal!
32:02He always appreciates me and all my Christmas spirit!
32:05Why, Nature Cat?
32:08Why?
32:09It doesn't feel like Christmas
32:12Oh, it feels so bad, I swear
32:15When your best friend in the world
32:18He just doesn't seem to care
32:21Doesn't care to crochet a doll
32:23For a recovering fawn or foal
32:26Or a merry mousy family
32:28Who was forced from their tree hole
32:31No, it doesn't feel like Christmas
32:36No, it doesn't feel like, feel like, feel like
32:42Doesn't feel like Christmas at all
32:48I do care, Hal!
32:50I do!
32:52Hal!
32:53He can't hear you, man
32:54What did he mean?
32:55A mousy family forced from their tree hole
32:57He means the Scratchits, remember?
32:59Impossible!
33:00The Scratchits are still at home
33:02Are you sure?
33:03Of course!
33:05I'll show you!
33:13Scratchits!
33:14Scratchits!
33:15Come on up, Scratchits!
33:18Bob!
33:19Belinda!
33:20Tiny Tim!
33:22They're not there, Nature Cat
33:24Yes, they are!
33:25I know it!
33:26They're gone
33:27They're gone
33:28Oh!
33:29Eee!
33:30Ah!
33:31A little help, please!
33:33Okay
33:34One!
33:35Two!
33:36Three!
33:41They weren't there
33:42Again, I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so
33:47If they're not at home, where are they?
33:49If you want to see where the Scratchits have gone
33:51Stand here beneath the Barbajan
33:58What are we doing here?
33:59Look!
34:00It doesn't feel like Christmas when you just can't find a home
34:06A warm and cozy burrow, so on and on you roam
34:11It doesn't feel so merry when you don't have a comfy bed
34:16Or a nest to snuggle up in, so you can rest your weary head
34:21No, it doesn't feel like Christmas
34:26Tiny Tim doesn't have a home?
34:29What?
34:30Why?
34:31Hmm, I think because someone made their home so bright and noisy that they had to leave
34:36Who would do such a thing?
34:38Oh wait, that was me!
34:41Maybe I should change
34:43Maybe I should take down all those marvelous Christmas decorations
34:47Did you just sing that it doesn't feel like Christmas?
34:50Well, it doesn't, Papa
34:52We don't even have a home
34:54How can you have Christmas without a home?
34:58As long as we're together
35:00You along with me
35:03No matter where on earth we are
35:06We're a family
35:08So take my hand in your hand
35:11And let's all sing this song
35:13Cause when we're with each other
35:16We really can't go wrong
35:18It will always feel
35:21It will always feel
35:23It will always feel
35:26Like Christmas
35:28It will always feel
35:31Like Christmas
35:34Hug us
35:35Hug us
35:36Hug us everyone
35:37Oh great
35:38I don't have to change at all
35:40Looks like the scratch-its are gonna be just fine
35:43Time for presents everyone
35:45Presents?
35:46There are presents?
35:47Of course there are
35:49There you go, Peter
35:51An acorn helmet
35:53Wow
35:54A pinecon soccer ball?
35:56I love it
35:57Oh joy
35:58A homemade twigslet
36:00Wait, those are the presents?
36:01Yep, those are the presents
36:02But they weren't even bought in a store
36:03They're just made from stuff in nature
36:04They can't be happy with them
36:05Well, see for yourself
36:07These are the most wonderful Christmas gifts ever
36:08Yeah
36:09How can they be so full of joy when they have so little?
36:10Perhaps Christmas is not about presents or decorations or lights or incessant bad music
36:14Then what is it about?
36:15If you spare me a moment I will tell you everything your heart desires to know
36:21No
36:22Okay, everybody that's my time, I've been Spirit Squeak, thanks so much
36:32Wait, don't just leave me here
36:34Spirit, where are you?
36:36Spirit!
36:37Where are you, Spirit?
36:38Where are you?
36:39I'll tell you everything your heart desires to know.
36:42No!
36:43What?
36:44Okay, everybody, that's my time.
36:45I've been Spirit Squeaks.
36:46Thanks so much.
36:47Wait!
36:48Don't just leave me here!
36:49Spirit!
36:50Where are you, Spirit?
36:51Don't leave me!
36:53Spirit!
37:01What just happened?
37:02I must have been sleeping.
37:04Yes, that's it.
37:05It was all a crazy dream.
37:07And now I'm going back to sleep, and I'm going to dream about candy canes, marshmallow snowmen, and other happy Christmas stuff.
37:15Just when Nature Cat was about to fall asleep, as you can probably guess, something strange happened.
37:26Huh, windy night.
37:30Hey!
37:31Who turned off my Christmas tree?
37:33What was that?
37:41Ah!
37:43Are you another Spirit?
37:45And what Spirit are you?
37:48Tiddy!
37:51Oh, Hal!
37:52It's you!
37:53I'm not Hal!
37:54I already told you!
37:55I'm a spirit!
37:56But you look just like Hal!
37:59Oh, yeah?
38:00Well, could Hal do this?
38:02Actually, yes.
38:03Hal stands on his head, like, all the time.
38:05Oh, yeah.
38:06I guess it's not that hard to stand on your head.
38:08But you just have to take my word for it.
38:09For I am the Spirit of Nature yet to come.
38:13Come, come, come, come.
38:16The Spirit of Nature yet to come?
38:19Yes.
38:20The Spirit of Nature yet to come.
38:22Come, come, for the second time.
38:24Uh, does it do that every time you say your name?
38:27Oh, yeah.
38:28Every time.
38:29I love it.
38:30The Spirit of Nature yet to come.
38:33Enough!
38:34For now, it is time to show you your future.
38:40Okay, wait, let me try that again.
38:41Time to show you your future!
38:47Uh, is something supposed to happen?
38:49I think so.
38:50I'm kind of new to this Spirit of Nature yet to come thing.
38:53Wait a minute, I know!
38:55I need my magic squeak toy!
38:57Now it's time to really see your future.
38:59Spirit, Mr. Chewinski!
39:01Do your thing!
39:05Whoa!
39:06Whoa!
39:07Whoa!
39:08Whoa!
39:09Whoa!
39:10Whoa!
39:11Isn't futuristic travel great?
39:12No!
39:13Whoa!
39:14Whoa!
39:15Whoa!
39:16Whoa!
39:17Whoa!
39:18Whoa!
39:19Whoa!
39:20Whoa!
39:21Whoa!
39:22Whoa!
39:23Whoa!
39:24Whoa!
39:25Whoa!
39:26Whoa!
39:27Whoa!
39:28Whoa!
39:29You chop them down to make room for all the toys and gifts you got each year at Christmas.
39:33That's impossible!
39:34I would never do such a thing!
39:36My hat and sash!
39:40What are they doing on the ground?
39:42In the future, you don't need your Nature Cat stuff.
39:44What do you mean?
39:45Why wouldn't I need my Nature Cat stuff?
39:47You changed your name?
39:48I did what?
39:49You didn't care about nature anymore, so you just changed your name.
39:53But if I'm not Nature Cat, who am I?
39:57Oh, it's so cool!
39:58Here you come now!
39:59Merry Christmas to me!
40:01Oh, hi you!
40:02It's me!
40:03That's me!
40:04Oh, yes!
40:05That's you, alright!
40:06If I'm no longer Nature Cat, what do I call myself in the future?
40:10Well, you're in luck, because you're about to find out with a song!
40:13I'm the cat who's got the most, the most toys you've ever seen!
40:19I got teddy bears and blocks, and everything in between!
40:24Call me Christmas Cat, cause Christmas is where it's at!
40:29Lots of presents for me under my Christmas tree, it's all for the Christmas Cat!
40:33Imagine that!
40:36You may think I have it all, well I don't, now here's the twist!
40:41The things I don't have yet, I just add them to my list!
40:45I want a video game and a rubber shark, I want a choo-choo train that glows in the dark!
40:50I want a jelly bean maker, want the newest phone!
40:53I'm the Christmas king, so I want a throne!
40:55I want everything as you can see, so tell Santa bring them all to me!
41:00Bring it to the Christmas Cat!
41:03Who wants this and that?
41:05Stub them in my giant sock, and the Christmas Cat will rock and rock!
41:10Call me the Christmas Cat, and that's that!
41:13Christmas Cat!
41:16Well, it looks like I have every toy I could possibly want!
41:19So I must be happy, right?
41:21Take a look for yourself!
41:23Ha-ha! Catch!
41:28What's wrong with me?
41:29You're lonely in the future.
41:31Lonely? Why don't I just go and play with my friends?
41:34You don't play with them anymore.
41:36Not play with my friends? That's impossible!
41:42What's this? Why, it's my nature curiosity list!
41:46What happened to it?
41:48You stopped being curious about nature.
41:50But surely my friends still love nature?
41:53None of them are here anymore.
41:54What? Another impossibility! My friends are always here!
41:58I'm afraid they're not.
42:00Yes! Yes they are! I'll prove it to you!
42:05Where is it? Where did it go?
42:07What are you looking for?
42:08Daisy's garden! It was always right here! Where is it?
42:12Well, you cemented over it.
42:15Why would I do such a thing?
42:16To build a landing pad for Santa.
42:19Daisy! Where are you, Daisy?
42:21Daisy's gone! She moved away when she lost her garden!
42:24No! No, no, no!
42:26Squeaks! Squeaks!
42:28We gotta go find Daisy, Squeaks!
42:30Squeaks is gone too!
42:32But she loved to play in the trees here!
42:34You got rid of all the trees, remember?
42:38Oh! What have I done?
42:40Hal! I need to see my best buddy Hal!
42:44Oh! Hal's dog, Hal's!
42:46Thank goodness it's still here!
42:49Yes, it is!
42:50Hal! Come on out, Hal!
42:52Hal!
42:54Wait, where is Hal?
42:56He moved away when you turned his doghouse into a storage room for your toys.
43:00That wasn't very nice, he really liked that house.
43:03No!
43:08Wait a minute! What about the Scratch-Its?
43:10Bob? Belinda? Tiny Tim?
43:12Did they ever come back?
43:13Well, no one knows what happened to the Scratch-Its.
43:16They never returned. None of the animals did.
43:18No animals? No trees?
43:20No friends!
43:22And this is what happens when there are no more nature heroes.
43:26Tell me, Spirit, is it too late?
43:28Can I change all of this?
43:30What do I have to do to get my friends back?
43:32To get nature back?
43:34The answer is...
43:36Well, looks like my time is up.
43:38Wait, Spirit! I want my friends!
43:40I want nature!
43:42What do I do?
43:44Sorry, I'm off duty!
43:46Good luck!
43:47Wait, Spirit!
43:48Don't leave me alone!
43:49Spirit!
43:50Where are you?
43:53What is Christmas spirit?
43:58I really thought I knew.
44:01Thought that it was wrapped in gifts and stuffed in stockings too.
44:07Why is it so far away?
44:10Why can't I find the reason?
44:13How come I can't catch that spirit of the Christmas season?
44:23Christmas spirit, don't you care?
44:26Christmas spirit, fill the air.
44:29Christmas spirit, please come through.
44:32Christmas spirit, I need you.
44:35It's not twisted in a candy cane, not baked inside a pie.
44:40It's not lit up in a window pane, or in a garland hanging high.
44:47Christmas spirit, are you there?
44:50Christmas spirit, please come share.
44:53Christmas spirit, time to start.
44:56Christmas spirit, fill my heart.
44:59It's a feeling that you want to give, don't care if you receive.
45:04It's the feeling that you want to share, that's the spirit I believe.
45:10It's a feeling that you want to care, for the earth and all that grows.
45:16For animals and friends, and trees in the meadows.
45:22Christmas spirit, you are there.
45:25Christmas spirit, everywhere.
45:28Christmas spirit, I can see.
45:31Christmas spirit, you're in.
45:52Ho, ho, ho!
45:53What? Where? What happened?
45:55And so, Nature Cat awoke from his night of visiting spirits, and it was Christmas day.
46:00Wait, it's Christmas? Today is Christmas?
46:03Are you talking to me?
46:04Obviously.
46:05Well, usually nobody talks to the narrator.
46:08Well, I'm sorry, but I'm desperate, and no fourth wall is going to hold me back.
46:12I need to know what day it is.
46:14Look at all the presents under the tree.
46:16It is Christmas!
46:17And so, Nature Cat was so excited by all his Christmas presents that he forgot all about the spirits and began to open his presents.
46:26Wait a minute, Nature Cat. Why aren't you opening up your Christmas presents?
46:31Uh, because Christmas is about so much more than presents.
46:36And so, Nature Cat realized that Christmas wasn't about getting presents.
46:40It was about giving to his friends, to the animals, to all of nature.
46:44That's exactly right, Mr. Narrator Man. And now it's time for me to give back.
46:49You go, Nature Cat.
46:51Two, three, four.
46:52Come sing a song, and if they dance, I'll dance.
46:55It's not too late, there's still a chance.
46:58And if I can, I'm gonna find a way.
47:02I think I know what hard I should do for all my friends and nature, too.
47:08I'm making changes and they start today.
47:11Cause when I woke up this morning, yes, this lovely morning, when I woke up this morning,
47:16It was Christmas!
47:25Daisy, oh Daisy, your garden is still here!
47:29Whoa, whoa, whoa, back up there, mister.
47:31You can't put any lights on my holly bushes.
47:34I wouldn't dream of it, Daisy.
47:36In fact...
47:38Tally ho!
47:46Done!
47:48But what about all the lights to celebrate Christmas?
47:53Don't need them.
47:54This garden is perfect just the way it is.
47:56And so are you.
47:58Merry Christmas, Daisy.
48:00And a Merry Christmas to you, Nature Cat.
48:06Squeaks, it's you.
48:08It's really you, playing up in the trees.
48:11What?
48:12I can't hear you over all the noise.
48:14No!
48:15There is no more noise, Squeaks!
48:17Listen!
48:18Huh?
48:19Oh!
48:20Silence!
48:21There's no more noise.
48:22There's no more noise!
48:24You were right all along, Squeaks.
48:26I don't need loud music to have a great Christmas.
48:29I just need trees and nature.
48:31And the friends that I love.
48:33That's beautiful.
48:35Come here, you big lug.
48:36Give me a hug.
48:38Merry Christmas, Squeaks.
48:41And Merry Christmas trees!
48:44Hal!
48:45Hal!
48:46Hal!
48:47Hal!
48:48Hal!
48:49Oh, no!
48:50Where's Hal?
48:51Whitty!
48:52Ho, ho, ho!
48:53I'm Santa Hal!
48:55Oh, Hal!
48:56Oh, are you trying to get me to put up more bright and noisy Christmas decorations?
49:02No, Hal!
49:03I don't care about decorations or getting gifts or Christmas goodies!
49:08I want to give back!
49:09I want to help others!
49:11I want to care for nature and all its little creatures!
49:15Like the Scratchits!
49:16Yes!
49:17The Scratchits!
49:18I need to find the Scratchits!
49:20May I present our Christmas feast!
49:25Hooray!
49:26Hello, Scratchit family!
49:29Oh, no.
49:30He probably wants to decorate out here, too.
49:33Now, now, dear.
49:34Where's your Christmas spirit?
49:36We need to invite him to eat with us.
49:39Fine.
49:40Please, sit down on a rock and have a slice of beans!
49:44No time!
49:45I need to open up this bag of bright lights and loud music to celebrate Christmas!
49:52Wait just a nature-loving second!
49:54Seems like someone replaced the loud music and bright lights with Christmas goodies!
50:00Merry Christmas, Scratchit family!
50:03It's a Christmas miracle!
50:05Look out, Billy!
50:07Here it comes!
50:08Yummy!
50:09I'm glad you like it, Tiny Tim.
50:14But why eat here when we could share it back at your tree?
50:18But what about those bright lights?
50:20And the super loud music?
50:22I got rid of it all!
50:24I'm sorry for what I did, Scratchits.
50:26Nature is your home!
50:28And I promise I won't do anything to mess it up ever again!
50:31In fact, I will do everything I can to protect it!
50:35Always!
50:36Hooray!
50:37Hooray!
50:38I've said it before and I'll say it again.
50:41Hug us!
50:42Hug us, everyone!
50:44Now that we're all together, let's celebrate Christmas!
50:50Oh, should we play some games?
50:52Or open up some stockings?
50:54Or eat some Christmas cookies?
50:56I have a better idea!
50:57Is this for me, Nature Cat?
51:02Yes!
51:03Now come on!
51:04Let's explore nature!
51:06Tari-ho!
51:07It's Christmas morning!
51:08No more time to sleep!
51:09Open up your eyes!
51:10Come on, take a peep!
51:11You see the snow laying on the ground!
51:12But something's different changes all around!
51:13Cause you see the world with brand new eyes!
51:17At Christmas!
51:18At Christmas!
51:19At Christmas!
51:20You see the deer is swaying as it's drinking from a pond!
51:23You'll see icicles sparkle like they're from a magic wand!
51:24You'll notice every partridge up there in a pear tree!
51:25You'll understand how much it means to have a family!
51:26Cause you see the world with brand new eyes!
51:28At Christmas!
51:29At Christmas!
51:30You see the deer is swaying as it's drinking from a pond!
51:31You'll see icicles sparkle like they're from a magic wand!
51:32You'll notice every partridge up there in a pear tree!
51:49You'll understand how much it means to have a family!
51:52Cause you see the world with brand new eyes!
51:59At Christmas!
52:02At Christmas!
52:06The beauty of a beehive!
52:07The mystery of a cave!
52:09The magic of a snowflake!
52:11The power of a wave!
52:12Whee!
52:13The rushing of the wind!
