# Nuevo Prisma A1, Unit 4: Looking after a cat

**Language:** Spanish  
**CEFR Level:** A1  

> Master finding your way around a new place by listening to Ainhoa and Gorka's conversation about her flat and her shy cat, which pairs with the themes of unit 4 of Nuevo Prisma A1. It may feel challenging at first, but by the end of this course you will be able to fully understand and participate.

They use tú with each other from the first line.
