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.   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 her  feet as she 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  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.........
