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 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...
