Cat loves to give</i> ! Nature Cat: There! I made
my Christmas list! Here's all the
stuff I want to get! <i> Narrator: Hubba-wha,
Nature Cat?</i> Nature Cat: I want
a new scratching post, a laser pointer,
a squeaky toy, cat nip... <i> Narrator: FA-LA-LA-LA-LA!</i> <i> Something is different
about Nature Cat!</i> <i> He thinks that Christmas is
about getting and not giving.</i> <i> Oh brother! I think
we're going to need</i> <i> an extra-special
Christmas episode</i> <i> to deal with this problem!</i> <i> Narrator: Oh, would
you look at that!</i> <i> This is an extra-special
Christmas episode!</i> <i> Wonder what it's called?</i> <i> Narrator: Ooh! A Nature Carol.
This ought to be good.</i> Nature Cat: I want a hula
hoop and a spring toy and a video game with
angry pickles and... Daisy: Ummm... Nature Cat, you know Christmas
isn't all about getting presents, right? Nature Cat: (laughs)
I know that. It's about presents and
lights and Christmas music and shiny Christmas baubles! Hal: I don't think that's
it either neither. Or either neither. Let's just call the
whole thing off. Nature Cat: Sure
it is, Hal my pal. Take it from me. I'm the guy with the
most Christmas Spirit in the entire universe! Hal: Tell us, Christmas Expert, what's the secret to having
so much Christmas Spirit? Nature Cat: If you want to have
the most Christmas Spirit, you gotta make
everything bigger, shinier, louder and more Christmassy! Nature Cat: Take the decorations
on your doghouse, for example. Hal: What about them? Nature Cat: These are good,
but they can be even better. Hal: How? You know what... can you just sing a
song about it please? <i> Nature Cat: ♪ Hang lights of
blue, and green, and red ♪</i> <i> ♪ and white that

to celebrate Christmas in a great, big way! Granny Bunny: Hello, sweetie. Gang: Granny Bunny! Granny Bunny: If you want
to do something really big, you can volunteer at the
annual Christmas Critter Crochet-a-thon! Squeeks: Annual Christmas
Conner Ronner Don? What's that? Granny Bunny: The Christmas
Critter Crochet-a-thon where we crochet stuffed
animals for those in recovery at Racer Raccoon's
animal hospital. Squeeks: Granny Bunny,
you never cease to amaze! That sounds awesome! Hal: Helping and crocheting! That's two of my
favorite things! Oh, and Granny Bunny too! That's three of my
favorite things! I love you, Granny Bunny!
(mwah, mwah, mwah, mwah) Daisy: Come on! Let's go make some
stuffed animal dolls! Nature Cat: So sorry, Granny, we have no time to
crochet right now. Granny Bunny: Well, let me
know if you change your mind. Squeeks: Why don't we have time? I'm not working right now. Nature Cat: Because
we have something even more Christmassy to do! Daisy: But what can
be more Christmassy than helping others,
Nature Cat? Nature Cat: We are going
to decorate the woods! Daisy/Squeeks: Uh, What? Nature Cat: The
trees in the woods. We're going to fill them with lots of lights! Squeeks: Why would
we want to do that? Imagine the electricity bill. Nature Cat: So that
all of nature can see how much we love Christmas! Daisy: I don't
understand, Nature Cat? You always love to
help animals in nature. Nature Cat: Uh, this
is helping animals! Nature Cat: Now come on! Nature Cat: Let's go
decorate those woods! Daisy: Sorry, Nature Cat, I'm
going to help Granny Bunny. Nature Cat:
Wait! Squeeks, Hal, don't you want to
show the world how much you
love Christmas? Hal: I sure do too too
also also as well well! Hahaha! Nature Cat: Then let's
go decorate the woods. Squeeks: But, Nature Cat,
what about the little dolls for the Critter
Crochet-ra-thorn? Or whatever? Nature Cat: We can
crochet dolls any day. The time to
decorate is now! Squeeks/Hal: Let's decorate! ♪ (Jingle Bells) ♪ ♪ ♪ Nature Cat: Ha ha! Yes! I give you...lights! Squeeks/Hal: Whooooaaaaah! Nature Cat: Isn't it
the most beautiful thing you've ever seen? Squeeks: I mean, it's
definitely the brightest! Hal: And also the brightest! Deer: Hey! Who turned
on these lights? Raccoon: Yeah, what's
going on here? Voles: It's toooooo bright! Raccoon: Wait wait wait,
I'm like so confused, uhh, shouldn't it be night? Voles: Come on, let's
get out of here! Come on, let's go! Yeah what's going on?? Squeeks: I don't think
they like the lights, man. Nature Cat: Nonsense, Squeeks! They're just running off to tell
all their friends about our marvelous Christmas display! Squeeks: I don't
think so, Nature Cat. All these decorations are
making light pollution and it's bothering the animals. Especially the voles! Nature Cat: But come on,
it's so Christmassy! Nature Cat: Hey! Who
turned out the lights? Nature Cat: Joy to the World! Nature Cat: What?! Nature Cat: Click. Nature Cat: Ah ha! Who are you, you little
Christmas menaces? Large Mouse: Oh,
we're not menaces. We're the Scratchits! Scratchits: Hello! Nature Cat: The Scratchits? What a convenient name. Large Mouse: Oh yeah!
I'm Bob Scratchit! This is my wife
Martha Scratchit. My daughter Belinda Scratchit. And my son Peter Scratchit. Tiny Tim: Don't forget me. Bob Scratchit: And
that's Tiny Tim. Hal: Oh my goodness, oh Tiny Tim is just the cutest! Nature Cat: I want to know
why you keep shutting off my Christmas lights! Martha Scratchit: Well,
those lights are too bright! Squeeks: Hmm. If only someone
had said that ten minutes ago. Bob Scratchit: Hard for us
to find food or stay safe with all those
bright blinky lights. Nature Cat: Who needs
to eat? It's Christmas! A time to celebrate, get presents, have fun and get presents! Martha Scratchit: We do love
celebrating Christmas. Nature Cat: Well then,
if you love Christmas, just enjoy the lights. Bob Scratchit: Well,
they do look pretty. I guess we can skip
the meal and celebrate! Nature Cat: That's
the Christmas spirit. Here! Take a set of
lights for yourselves. Martha Scratchit: Come
on kids, let's go back to our very bright tree hole and not be able
to forage for food so Nature Cat can
have his lights. Nature Cat: Hmmm. They
didn't even say "Thank you." Squeeks: Thank you?
Thank you for what? Nature Cat: For decorating their
home for Christmas, of course. Squeeks: Nature Cat, you heard
them, they can't find food or stay safe with all
this light pollution. This isn't right! Nature Cat: You're right. It won't be right until we add some music! Nature Cat: So we
can have the loudest Christmas display
in all of nature! Squeeks: Alright. That's it! That's not how you
celebrate Christmas! Count the mouse out! Hal: Bye, Nature Cat. Nature Cat: Whoa!
Whoa! Whoa! Hal? Where are you going?
Hal: With Squeeks. Nature Cat: Come on, Hal, don't you want to
be a Christmas lover like your pal, Nature Cat? Hal: Yes! I do! I really do! And do you have one
of those in my size? Hal: Whoa! (giggles) Nature Cat: Then let's
make some Christmas music! Nature Cat: This is going
to be bigger and louder than any Christmas
display in the world! ♪ (band playing "We Wish
You A Merry Christmas) ♪ ♪♪ Nature Cat: Hold on
there, Scratchit's, what do you think you're doing? Bob Scratchit: We're trying
to turn off the loud music! Nature Cat: I need to
play my Christmas music so all of nature can hear it. ♪♪♪ Martha Scratchit: What
are we going to do, papa? Bob Scratchit: (sighs)
The only thing we can do? Bob Scratchit: It's
time for us to go. Scratchits: Go! - Leave!
- What? Belinda Scratchit: But what
about Christmas, Papa? Bob Scratchit: Christmas is
wherever we're together. Bob Scratchit: Follow me! Hal: Scratchits! Come back! <i> Narrator: Hal was so
upset about Nature Cat</i> <i> disturbing nature and the
animals leaving the forest,</i> <i> that he turned and sadly
trudged back to his dog house.</i> Nature Cat: Hal? Where are you, Hal? Nature Cat: Oh well, it's time
for me to get some rest anyway. (yawns) Nature Cat: Tomorrow
is Christmas and I want to be
ready to celebrate. Ahhhh! What was that? Nature Cat: Huh! Must have
just been a Christmas vision. (laughs)

about something different. Something very, very important. Nature Cat: What? What is it? What's the very, very
important warning? Ronald: Uhhhh, I can't remember. Nature Cat: What? But you just said it was

warning about too many presents? Ronald: I have no idea. Presents are awesome! In my opinion, you can never
have too many presents. Nature Cat: Yeah!

have any presents? 'Cause I really want a
Christmas present right now. Nature Cat: Huh? No. Ronald: But I want a
present! I need a present! Give me more! More! More! Ronald: Ahhh! Nature Cat: Spirit? Ronald: Ah-haa!

Not just any spirit, I'm the Spirit of Nature Past! Nature Cat: I have no

nature a long time ago. Nature Cat: Ooooh! Nope. Still don't got it. Daisy Spirit: Come! We will
visit nature in the past, when you were just
a little kitty. Nature Cat: I'm
going to visit me? Oh! Let me get my camera! Daisy Spirit: No need.
I'll bring my phone! Nature Cat: Uh.
That's your phone? Daisy Spirit: I'm from the
past. It's the best I can do. Now, let us visit

look for yourself. Nature Cat: Ugh! Whose
Christmas tree is that? Bunny Daisy: Man-oh-man,
this dried lavender will look really
sweet here. Ba-bam! Nature Cat: It's Daisy, when she was just a
young Bunny. Adorbs! Mouseling Squeeks:

Thank you, Puppy Hal! (As Hal) Why, thank
you, Squishy the Elf! Young Squeeks: Love it!
Daisy: Sweet! Nature Cat: Ooooh!
I remember this day. This was the first Christmas
we all spent together. Boy, we decorated that tree
better than any tree ever. Daisy Spirit: Are you sure
you're remembering correctly? Nature Cat: Oh yeah! We had tons of lights
and decorations. Daisy Spirit: If you say so. Puppy Hal: How are we going
to get the star on top? Nature Kitten: Tally ho! Squeeks: Hooray! Yay!
Hal: Whoopie! Daisy: Oh yes! Oh yes! Nature Kitten:
There! All finished! Nature Cat: Finished?!
That can't be. There are so few decorations.
And zero lights. There's no way I'd
be happy with that. Nature Kitten: It's amazing! Nature Cat: What?! Mouseling Squeeks:
Nature Kitten? Can we give you
your presents now? Nature Kitten: I don't
need any presents! Nature Cat: I didn't
need presents? Are we sure that's me? Daisy Spirit: Yup! That's
you as a kitten, all right. Now, keep watching. Nature Kitten: Whoa!
Where did you get these? Bunny Daisy: My Granny
Bunny helped us make them! Nature Kitten: This
is unbelievable! Nature Cat: I'd forgot they made
me my first hat and sash. And I was happy with just that? Daisy Spirit: Well,
what do you think? Nature Kitten: These
are the greatest gifts a kitten has ever gotten! Now I have something for you. Nature Cat: Oh! Okay! That must be my Christmas list with all the other things
I want for Christmas! Daisy Spirit: I don't think so. Mouseling Squeeks: Oh! What
is it? What is it? Oh! Oh! Nature Kitten: I made a
list of all the things we can explore in nature! I call it my Nature
Curiosity List! Bunny Daisy: Ooo! Find
out where a stream begins. Puppy Hal: Explore the
tippy top of a mountain! Mouseling Squeeks: Dig deep into
the Earth and see what's there! Young Squeeks: This is so cool!
Daisy: Sweet! Hal: Oh! I can't wait
to do all of this. Nature Kitten: And the
best part is, we can keep adding to the list, 'cause there will
always be something new to explore together in nature. Young Squeeks/Daisy/Hal:
Thank you, Nature Kitten! Nature Kitten: Wait!
I have something else. Puppy Hal: What is
it, Nature Kitten? Nature Kitten: I

maybe. Sometimes. Daisy Spirit: Looks
like you need a visit from some more Spirits! <i> Narrator: And so, Nature Cat
found himself back at home.</i> (thud) Nature Cat: Hey! I'm back home! (clock chime) Nature Cat: But
where's that Spirit? Spirit of nature past? Tell the other spirits there's
no need for them to visit because I've changed! I no longer think that
Christmas is about lights and decorations and presents! Oh boy! A present! Nature Cat: (gasps)

in the mirror, man, you haven't learned a thing! Nature Cat: Oh, Squeeks.
It's just you! Spirit Squeeks: I am not

goose! You're obsessed. Nature Cat: With what? Spirit Squeeks:
With presents. It's weird. Nature Cat: Ooh! So I
am getting a present? Spirit Squeeks: No! It's not present like
Christmas present. It's present like right now. Do I need to whiteboard
it for you? Oye! Nature Cat: Ohhhh! I get it. But it is almost Christmas so I should be getting some
presents in the present. Spirit Squeeks:
This is riduculous! (huff) But I got a job to do. Heya! Nature Cat: What's going on? Spirit Squeeks: I do all
my traveling by cheese. Cheese. The smarter
way to travel. Nature Cat: Ahhhhwhoaaaaa! Nature Cat: Whoooooaaaaa! Nature Cat: Whoooaaa! (kathunk) Hrrg! Nature Cat: Hey! It's
Christmas! Come on! Let's go see all of my
friends so we can celebrate! Spirit Squeeks: I
gotta warn ya man, I'm not sure they're in
the mood to celebrate. Nature Cat: Nonsense!
Of course they are! It's Christmas! Spirit Squeeks: (sigh)
Okay. You asked for it. Nature Cat: There's Daisy! I bet she loves how I
decorated her garden. Spirit Squeeks: I
wouldn't count on it. Just listen. This is
going to be painful. Daisy: Ugh. I can't believe what Nature
Cat did to my poor plants! Daisy: He and his over-the-top
Christmas is ruining nature. <i> Daisy: ♪ It doesn't

There's good old Squeeks, enjoying my robotic

stand all of this noise! It drove away all the animals

enjoy my Christmas music? It's so festive! Spirit Squeeks: Some might call
it festive, others might call it ear-splittingly loud! It's noise pollution and
it's not good for nature. Nature Cat: But it's good
for celebrating Christmas! Oh tell me, Spirit, why are
you showing me all this? Spirit Squeeks: Because
you can't save nature without your friends. Nature Cat: I have friends! In fact, I have a best friend! Take me to my best friend Hal. Spirit Squeeks: As you
wish, as you please, stand here under the
time travel cheese. Nature Cat: Ahh! There he is! My best buddy Hal! He always appreciates me
and all my Christmas Spirit! Hal: (sigh)

course there are. Here you go, Peter. Peter Scratchit:
An Acorn helmet! Wow! Belinda Scratchit: A
pinecone soccer ball! Oh I love it! Tiny Tim: Oh joy!
A homemade twig sled! Nature Cat: Wait, those
are the presents? Spirit Squeeks: Yup,
those are the presents. Nature Cat: But they weren't
even bought in a store. They're just made
from stuff in nature. They can't be happy with them. Spirit Squeeks: Well,
see for yourself. Tiny Tim: These are the most
wonderful Christmas gifts ever. Scratchit family: Yeah! Nature Cat: How can they
be so full of joy when they have so little? Spirit Squeeks: Perhaps
Christmas is not about presents or decorations or lights or incessant bad music. Nature Cat: Then
what is it about? Spirit Squeeks: If you'll spare
me a moment I will tell you everything your heart
desires to knowwwww... Spirit Squeeks: Whooops! Okay
everybody that's my time. I've been Spirit Squeeks!
Thanks so much. Nature Cat: Wait!
Don't just leave me here. Nature Cat: Spirit!
Where are you, Spirit? Don't leave me! SPIRIIT! (clock chimes ringing) Nature Cat: What just happened?
I must have been sleeping. Yes! That's it! It was
all a crazy dream! And now, I'm going back to sleep and I'm going to dream
about candy canes, marshmallow snowmen and other happy Christmas stuff. <i> Narrator: Just when Nature Cat
was about to fall asleep,</i> <i> as you can probably guess,</i> <i> something strange happened.</i> (shivers) Nature Cat: Huh. Windy night. Hey! Who turned off
my Christmas tree? Aieee! What was that? (teeth chattering) Nature Cat: Ahhhh! Are you another Spirit?! Nature Cat: And what
Spirit are you? Hal Spirit: Tah-dee! Nature Cat: Oh Hal! It's you! Hal Spirit: I'm not Hal! I already told
you, I'm a Spirit! Nature Cat: But you
look just like Hal. Hal Spirit: Well, yeah,
could Hal do this? Nature Cat: Actually, yes. Hal stands on his head
like all the time. Hal Spirit: Oh yeah.
I guess it's not that hard to
stand on your head. You'll just have to
take my word for it. For I am the Spirit
of Nature Yet to Come! Come...Come...Come...Come... Nature Cat: The Spirit
of Nature Yet to Come? (booming thunder) Hal Spirit: Yes. The Spirit
of Nature Yet to Come! Come...Come...
For the second time. Nature Cat: Uh does it do that
every time you say your name? Hal Spirit: Oh yeah! Every
time. I love it. Hahaha! Nature Cat: The Spirit
of Nature Yet to Come! (booming thunder) Hal Spirit: Enough! For now, it is time to
show you your future! Hal Spirit: Okay, wait,
let me try that again. Time to show you... your future! Nature Cat: Uh. Is something
supposed to happen? Hal Spirit: I think so. I'm kinda new to this Spirit
of Nature Yet To Come thing. (booming thunder) Hal Spirit: Ooh!
Wait a minute! I know! I need my magic squeak toy! Hal Spirit: Now, it's time
to really see your future. Spirit Mr. Chewinsky,
do your thing! (squeaking) (fawoosh) Nature Cat:
Waahhh! Nature Cat/Spirit Hal:
Ohhhh!! Eyy! Eyyy! Yaa! Hal Spirit: Isn't
futuristic travel great? Nature Cat: Nooo! Nature Cat: Look ouuuutttt! (thud, thud) Nature Cat: Where are we? Hal Spirit: This
is your backyard. Nature Cat: Gabba say what! Where are all the trees? Hal Spirit: You chopped
them down to make room for all the toys and gifts you
got each year at Christmas. Nature Cat: That's impossible.
I would never do such a thing. Nature Cat: (gasps) My hat and sash! What are they doing
on the ground? Hal Spirit: In the
future you don't need your Nature Cat stuff. Nature Cat: What do you mean? Why wouldn't I need
my Nature Cat stuff? Hal Spirit: You
changed your name! Nature Cat: I did what? Hal Spirit: You didn't
care about nature anymore, so you just changed your name. Nature Cat: But...if I'm
not Nature Cat, who am I? Hal Spirit: Ooooh! It's so
cool! Here you come now! Future Nature Cat:
Merry Christmas to me! Hal Spirit: Hi you! It's me! Nature Cat: That's me?! Hal Spirit: Oh yes!
That's you all right. Nature Cat: If I'm
no longer Nature Cat, what do I call myself
in the Future? Hal Spirit: Well you're in luck.

being curious about nature. Nature Cat: But surely my

you cemented over it. Nature Cat: Why would
I do such a thing? Hal Spirit: To build

she lost her garden. Nature Cat: No! No, no, no! Squeeks?! Squeeks! We gotta
go find Daisy. Squeeks! Hal Spirit:

Come on out, Hal! Haaal? Nature Cat: Wait! Where is Hal? Hal Spirit: He moved away
when you turned his dog house into a storage for toys. It wasn't very nice he
really liked that house. Nature Cat: Noooo! Nature Cat: Wait a minute.
What about the Scratchits? Bob, Belinda, Tiny Tim? Did they ever come back? Hal Spirit: No one knows
what happened to the Scratchits. They never returned. None of the animals did. Nature Cat: No animals? No trees? No friends? (sobbing) Hal Spirit: And this
is what happens when there are no
more Nature Heroes. Nature Cat: Tell me,
Spirit, is it too late? Can I change all of this? What do I have to do
to get my friends back? To get Nature back? Hal Spirit: The answer is... (alarm ringing) Hal Spirit: Oops!
