A Day in the Life of a Cat (and Dog).

Here’s a look into the mind of a cat and dog by way of a page from each of their dairys. The differences are not to surprising but very funny. Especially the cat of course.

If this is an example of what one of our cats would say in a Dairy entery, it would be Jasmine. She takes every chance she gets to run out the front or back door.

Here’s a copy of the two dairy entries that were originally posted. Read the Dog’s first, it makes the Cat’s entry funnier. You can see the original page here.

The Cat’s Diary

Day 983 of my captivity.

My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength.

The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an Attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet. Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates my capabilities.

However, they merely made condescending comments about what a “good little hunter” I am.

There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of “allergies.” I must learn what this means, and how to use it to my advantage.

Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow, but at the top of the stairs.

I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and Snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released, and seems to be more than willing to return. He has obviously gone mad.

The bird must be an informant. I observe him communicate with the Guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an Elevated Cell, so he is safe. For now.

Leave us a commet if this reminds you of any furry, cute, felines friends you may a close personal bond with. ;) If not, then I hope it was a funny read for you!
