The CAT's Diary

KITKAT


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.

BASTARDS!

MY GANG

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.

Today 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 is obviously RETARDED.


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...



PET RULES


To be posted VERY LOW

on the refrigerator door - nose height.


Dear Dogs and Cats,



The dishes with the paw prints
are yours

and contain your food.
The other dishes are mine
and contain my food.

Please note, placing a paw print

in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim

for it becoming

your food and dish,
nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing

in the slightest.


The stairway was not designed

by NASCAR

and is not a racetrack.

Beating me to the bottom is not the object.

Tripping me doesn't help because
I fall faster than you can run.

I cannot buy anything bigger than

a king sized bed.

I am very sorry about this.

Do not think I will continue sleeping

on the couch to ensure your comfort.


Dogs and cats

can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep.

It is not necessary to sleep

perpendicular

to each other stretched out to

the fullest extent possible.

I also know that sticking tails straight out

and having tongues hanging out

the other end to maximize space

is nothing but

SARCASM.

For the last time,

there is not a secret exit from the bathroom.
If by some miracle I beat you there,

and manage to get the door SHUT,

it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow,

try to turn the knob

or get your paw under the edge

and try to pull the door open.


I must exit through the same door I entered.
Also, I have been using the bathroom for years --


canine or feline attendance is

not required.


The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dog or cat's

BUTT!!

I cannot stress this enough!

To pacify you, my dear pets,

I have posted the following message on

our front door:


To All Non-Pet Owners

Who Visit & Like to

Complain About Our Pets:


1. They live here. You don't.


2. If you don't want their hair on your clothes,


stay off the furniture.


That's why they call it 'fur'niture.


3. I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.


4. To you, it's an animal.


To me,


he/she is an adopted son/daughter who is short, hairy,


walks on all fours and doesn't speak clearly.


Remember:


Dogs and cats


are better than kids


because they:



1. Eat less


2. Don't ask for money all the time


3 Are easier to train



4. Normally come when called


5. Never ask to drive the car


6. Don't hang out with drug-using friends


7. Don't smoke or drink


8. Don't have to buy the latest fashions


9. Don't want to wear your clothes


10. Don't need a gazillion dollars for college,

and...



11. If they get pregnant,



you can SELL their children!

WAKE ME UP, KITTY!
