I was asleep in bed, about 2am, when Spider (My cat) came into the bedroom, placed his mouth by my ear, and Miaowed, LOUDLY. I woke up, suddenly, and not too happily! I tried to push him away, but he repeated himself, then stood up and walked to the end of the bed, and looked back at me. When I tried to lie down, he came back, caught my hand in his mouth, and gently, but firmly, pulled me towards the door. Eventually I gave up, and got out of bed, as he ran to the bedroom door, paused, looked back at me, and waited until I followed him.
我正在床上睡觉，大概凌晨2点时Spider（我的猫）走进卧室，把嘴放在我耳边，很大声地喵了一声。我突然惊醒了心里很不痛快！我使劲把他推走，但他又叫了一声，站起身走到床尾，回头看看我。我想躺下他又回来了，用嘴咬着我的手，轻轻地坚持要拉我朝着门走，最后我放弃抵抗下床了，他跑到卧室门口时又停下回头看我，等着我跟上他。

Eventually, he got me to the French doors in the living room, where he sat, looking at me and then at the light switch, until I turned the light on to illuminate the patio outside. There his baby kitty sister was sitting, in the rain, not coming into the house. I called her, but she just looked at me, until I opened the door, and picked her up. Although she was purring madly, her leg was swinging oddly, and it was obviously badly broken. I pushed her gently into a basket, pulled my clothes on, and called for a taxi to take me to the emergency vet.
最后他带我走到客厅落地玻璃门那儿，他坐下看看我又看看灯的开关，我打开灯照亮了外面的院子，他的小猫妹妹正坐在雨里不进来。我叫她，她只是看着我，我打开门把她抱起来。她疯狂地叫着，腿晃得很奇怪，很明显受了重伤。我轻轻把她放进篮子里，穿上衣服，叫了一辆出租车就去看兽医急诊。

Without his intervention, she would have been stuck outside for at least another five hours, in the pouring rain, badly injured. The vet said that, without prompt attention, she may well have been dead by morning. Spider had saved her from, at best, considerable pain and suffering, at worst, a painful and cold, wet death. It took considerable surgical skill to save her leg, but without him, she may well not have had that chance. He was a lovely cat; He died aged 18 of acute kidney failure, and I miss him a lot!
要是没有Spider来叫我，她带着重伤在外面大雨中至少还得被困5个小时。兽医说要不是及时发现，到早上她可能就死了。往好了说，Spider救了她让她免受太大的痛苦；往严重了说，就是让她免于痛苦、寒冷、湿透着死去。救她的腿需要一定的手术技巧，但要是没有他，她可能连手术的机会都没有。他是一只可爱的猫，18岁时死于急性肾衰竭，我很想他！
