Excerpts from a 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 what I am capable of. 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 is obviously retarded. The bird has got to 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...

Ohmygosh, I am laughing my head off, I had a cat who was the one this was written about... I swear, he was devious. Dogs are delightful and so forgiving and loving when given the chance. Thanks for the laughs Shirley!
One more thing to add to the Dog Diary...I enjoyed chewing up something today..I have a dog and she seems to destroy a toy or a sock or whatever she can wrap her lips around. This post was a good laugh and a great start to my morning this morning.
Shirley - That is so hilarious but true. I think it is a little like the "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus thing." Dogs like men are more simple beings. . .Women on the other hand, are a little more complicated:-)
Hey Shirley I chuckled all the way thru the cat monologue - so funny! I must share this with my husband as it's 'his' cat and it sounds just like the little critter. Too darn funny! Thanks for the Friday smiles!
My dog gets excited when I take her on a ride in the car...100 feet down the driveway to get the mail. Not exactly gas efficient, but it makes her day!

18 Comments on Funny Friday ~ Dogs and Cats
Funny...probably true from a cat's perspective. Dogs do like to do anything and be happy doing it. Why can't people be like that?
Ohmygosh, I am laughing my head off, I had a cat who was the one this was written about... I swear, he was devious. Dogs are delightful and so forgiving and loving when given the chance. Thanks for the laughs Shirley!
Shirley - have seen before but I still get a kick out of it, thanks for posting. But, I still like both dogs and cats.
Shirley - I love it! Thanks for the laugh this morning!

LOL Shirley!! This is precisely why I am not a cat person! Too funny! Thanks for the laugh today.
Gary, That would be great!
Gail, Dogs are generally "sweeter" than cats.
Mike, I like both but I like dogs better....
Bob, You are very welcome!
April, Thanks. My dog is out of the chewing stage, thank goodness.
Myrl, Good analogy!
Anna, Thanks and you're welcome!
Mary, Glad I made you smile!
Shirley: You know I'm a dog lover, if you don't already know Brutus is my best friend. Meet Brutus:
Hi Brutus, You look like a wonderful dog and I know you are Carl and Ceil's best friend!
Having had both cats and dogs this is really funny and very true. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Yvette & Dennis, Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Gotta love those dogs and cats.. they make our lives more fun.
Thanks for the Saturday laughter (I missed it yesterday). That pretty much sounds like a cat to me.
Cute, I do think this may be an accurate picture of dogs and cats and how they think.
Marci likes to escape outside for a bit to see what she can kill. But when her tummy starts talking its time to go inside. She is 80% indoor cat.
My dog gets excited when I take her on a ride in the car...100 feet down the driveway to get the mail. Not exactly gas efficient, but it makes her day!
Shirley - This is very funny and thanks for the laugh!
