TRANSCRIPT
This is the first time they've seen water.
It's natural to be nervous, but these kittens are born water babies.
It's time to show them the real reason they've been brought here.
Long whiskers detect vibrations from fish moving in the shallows helping to gauge the exact striking distance.
Then it's the kitten's turn.
For now, it's only water-plants that need to be afraid.
This could take some time!
