		<description>From http://www.misscellania.com/miss-cellania/2006/5/18/dogs-and-cats.html ("Dogs and Cats"):  




&lt;b&gt;A Dog's Diary&lt;/b&gt;: 

7 am - Oh boy! A walk! My favorite! 

8 am- Oh boy! Dog food! My favorite! 

9 am- Oh boy! The kids! My favorite! Noon- Oh boy! The yard! My favorite! 

2 pm- Oh boy! A car ride! My favorite! 

3 pm- Oh boy! The kids! My favorite! 

4 pm- Oh boy! Playing ball! My favorite! 

6 pm- Oh boy! Welcome home Mom! My favorite! 

7 pm- Oh boy! Welcome home Dad! My favorite! 

8 pm- Oh boy! Dog food! My favorite! 

9 pm- Oh boy! Tummy rubs on the couch! My favorite! 

11 pm- Oh boy! Sleeping in my people's bed! My favorite! 



&lt;b&gt;A Cat's Diary&lt;/b&gt;: 

&lt;i&gt;Day 183 of my captivity&lt;/i&gt;:

- My captors continued to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am forced to eat dry cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and the mild satisfaction I get from clawing the furniture. Tomorrow I may eat another house plant.

- Today my attempt to kill my captors by weaving around their feet while they were walking almost succeeded. Must try this at the top of the stairs.

- In an attempt to disgust and repulse these vile oppressors, I once again induced myself to vomit on their favorite chair. Must try this on their bed.

- Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body in an attempt to make them aware of what I am capable of, and to try to strike fear in their hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what a good little cat I was. Hmmm, not working according to plan.

- There was some sort of a gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in solitary throughout the event. However, I could hear the noise and smell the food. More important, I overheard that my confinement was due to my powers of inducing "allergies." Must learn what this is and how to use it to my advantage.

- I am convinced the other captives are flunkies and maybe snitches. The dog is routinely released and seems more than happy to return. He is obviously a half-wit. The bird, on the other hand, has got to be an informant because it speaks with them regularly. I am certain he reports my every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room, his safety is assured. But I can wait. It's only a matter of time.</description>

		<description>That does it. I'm coming back as a cat next life! I'd be a pampered Persian, but the thought of hairballs is really gross, and how do they even breathe through that sunken nose? Something in a shorthair (but not poor bald Mr. Bigglesworth).</description>
