Excerpts from a Cat's Daily 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 what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a 'good little hunter' I am.

Bastards.

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 th is 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 has got to be an informant. I observe him communicating 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...

Dog Lover or Cat Lover?

;)
 
Dog lover. Dogs look up to you and cats look down on you.
 
I have two orange male tabby's in the US, and a solid black female tabby with beautiful emerald eyes in Israel.

Cats rule. Dogs drool.

Do you have someone to take care of them when you are not at one of your homes?
 
Tashah said:
Yes. My sister Shayah in the United States, and a full-time domestic manages my home in Israel.

That's cool. I know cats are lower maintenance than dogs.
 
Dogs definitely.

If you put peanut butter on your nuts, the dog comes up and licks it off.

The cat'll just scratch you.

****in' uppity bastards, those cats.
 
For me, I don't like an animal that is needy (this includes my husband ;)). I love how independent cats are. I love the sound of their purring. When I was very young, my mother said I would put my ear to our cat and say, "Mommy, Muffin's motor is running." I love watching a cat open and close his/her paws when they are happy. I am naturally drawn to a cat. A dog, not at all.
 
Am I an abomination for equally liking them both? :2razz:

I appreciate both animals for their wonderful qualities. My lifestyle at the moment does not allow the ownership of a dog, but I do own a cool orange tabby named Sam.

Cats are naturally evil creatures sent form the depths of hell to torment me. They just disguise it as affection.

I'm pretty badly allergic to them, yet I have NEVER encountered a cat that didn't somehow sense this and decide I'm it's favorite person in the whole wide world.

My wife's best friend has two super-reclusive cats that apparently don't like people very much. But I walk in the door and BAM! I've got two cats trying to jump in my lap and get their evil cat juices all over me.

The first time this happened my wife's friend was simply amazed by it. She said "They never do that to anybody! Never!"

And it's as soon as I walk in the door. They come out of her basement where they typically hide when peopleare over and jump all over me.

I've got another friend with two cats who are not really that reclusive but whenever I'm there, it doesn't matter how many people are around, they come flying towards me like dogs would.

I've have a bunch of of stray cats decide I'm their best friend, where they follow me around and **** while I'm outside trying to nuzzle up to my leg and jump into my arms. Really stange ****.

Maybe I smell like catnip or something, I don't know. But I'm inclined to think that its because they sense the damage they can do to me and seek to cause that damage.

If I know that someone has a cat and I'm goung to be around it, I take two benadryl and bring some extras with me because I KNOW that the cat is going to jump on me at some point. It always happens without fail.

They are evil, murderous bastards. :mrgreen:

Edit: If I wasn't allergic, I'd probably like cats a lot because they act as affectionate as dogs do around me. They're behavior around me is really that weird for cats.

:rofl Oh, your description is priceless. What's so funny, Tucker, is that cats are naturally attracted to me as well (where owners have said, "My cat never approaches strangers"), and here I am thinking it's because they sense I am a cat person. Look how complicated and unpredictable cats are--it's endearing. :lol:
 
Cats are more entertaining in mid-air. And they generally fly further as well.

That's pretty much true.

Even small dogs that might fly as far tend to be clumsy bastards in mid-air. Cats are much graceful when you toss 'em off of a balcony.

Pick a side. We are at war! :mrgreen:
 
Well, I like both but I am a cat person. I like the independence cats have, and the fact that you actually have to work for their affection. Dogs will love anyone who scratches the ears. Cats? Not so much. They have to like you before they'll allow you the pleasure of scratching their ears.

I guess that makes cats more like women, and dogs more like men, eh? ROFL

One of my cats is has been affectionately nicknamed "demon cat" by my mother since she won't let anyone but me pet her anymore. She looks all sweet and cuddly, sitting there purring as you walk by. But if anyone but me tries to pet her, she goes from purring to a guttural growl and a flash of claws in a millisecond.

I never found rubbing a cat's ears pleasurable. I, like Tucker, am secretly despised by cats. They know I'm allergic too.

And you have to rub something besides my ears to be my best friend. :2razz:
