Todd: So, we're here... first of all, how about everybody introduce themselves.


Fred: OK. I'm Fred from Canada and it's a pleasure to be here.


Katia: Hello. I am Katerina. I'm from Mexico 1 and I'm also very glad to be here.


Todd: Thanks guys. And then, I'm Todd. I'm from the U.S. Now for the listeners 2, we all live really close to each other and we live in a neighborhood, where I guess, all of our houses are probably within 3 two or three minutes of each other.


Katia: Very close.


Todd: So, we thought we would talk about the neighborhood, and the first topic would be the stray 4 cats.


Katia: Which are also are neighbors.


Todd: Right. First of all, how many stray cats do you think there are in the neighborhood?


Katia: At least at night, you see them all together, especially in one corner, and I see at least about six cats, at least, all together.


Fred: I would say much more than that.


Todd: Yeah, I would too actually. How many do you think?


Fred: I would go for maybe twenty of those around the neighborhood.


Katia: But this is just one corner.


Fred: OK, just one corner, so multiplied 5 by four or five corners, yeah, twenty, twenty-five cats.


Todd: OK, so then, what do you guys think about the cats? Like should something be done about the cats? Should the people feed the cats?


Katia: I think especially for a lot of the elderly 6 people that live here, I think for them it's very nice to have the cats around and they feed them and I think as long as they don't go into the trash, I think it's OK, but for me, I haven't seen any trash, and I don't think it would be a problem.


Todd: Well, you know, they break into my house. I don't know if they break into yours, but they're amazing. If I don't lock the windows, the sliding glass doors they pull the door open with their paw 7 and they come in and they look through my trash and then they leave.


Fred: Those are very clever cats.


Todd: Yeah, I thought it was a raccoon. I thought I had a raccoon, and I went to talk to my landlady 8, and she's like, "No, that's just the cats."


Katia: I think you were just not feeding them.


Todd: Well, yeah, I guess that's it. Like, they're so hungry that they break into people's houses for food.


Katia: OK, I don't have that problem. I live on the third floor.


Todd: Oh, really.


Katia: So, maybe that's why.


Todd: Right.


Fred: I don't have that problem either, although I do live in a house similar to yours, Todd, where we live on the first floor and there is a lot of stray cats around the neighborhood but I've never had any problems of them breaking into the house.


Todd: Yeah, I don't know. They're pretty amazing. Like, I did not even know that cat's could break into a house, but they can.


Katia: Very smart cats.


Todd: Yeah. Or very hungry cats, as you said.


Katia: Or friendly cats. They want to visit.


Todd: Yeah, right.
