And Now for Something Completely Different...

I'm taking a break from writing about writing today. In my day job I work for a provincial veterinary association, and we've been getting a laugh over some of these animal-related jokes on the Internet. I hope you enjoy.

This first one is an oldie but a goodie. It still cracks me up every time!

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. In an attempt to show my disgust, I once again vomit on the carpet.

The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape.

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 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...............

 
The Ultimate Tease

It's not nice to tease dumb animals. Oh, wait a minute. Maybe this one's not so dumb!



Sad, wet cats

And this video is dedicated to any brave soul who has ever bathed a cat. Though why anyone would want to bath a cat, I have no idea...


I hope you enjoy the jokes and have a laugh today. All the best!

P.S. If you'd like to share a link to a funny/amazing animal video I'd love to hear from you.
