Wonderful news! The humans came to visit!
Of course, I tried not to let on that I was excited. I am still utterly confounded by their role in all this. Perhaps they are being punished too, but if so, how come they are allowed to visit me?
They were very friendly when they arrived and immediately started picking me up and cuddling me and stroking me. It was all a bit much, what with the heat and the fact that really I needed to punish them for what they had done to me, so I scratched the female a bit in the nostril and after that they left me alone for a bit.
They had a talk with Jessica, who is a human who seems to live here and brings me food and new litter and water each day. If I am very cute she also gives me a bit of a stroke. I have decided to curry favour with her rather than the old humans: she seems a more consistent presence. I wonder if I can impress her by biting the old humans.
In truth, I was quite excited to see them when they came to visit today but I can't understand how they could have let this happen to me. I had a careful sniff when they arrived for any traces of scent from Fluffles or Mrs Minxie, but there was nothing. Maybe they're in the dark about this as much as I am.
They left after a couple of hours. I hope they come back tomorrow. I heard them talking to Jessica about how hot it was in my cell - I wonder if they were sorting out an air conditioner?
Later - One other strange thing I noticed. I distinctly heard them say it was Thursday when they were here. But I'm sure I was picked up on Monday, and it was only one night - a slightly long night, I admit - before I arrived here. I can only reach one conclusion: someone, or some cat, has stolen Wednesday. Perhaps I was brought here in advance because the perpetrator fears my powers of deduction. Cui bono, I thought to myself, cui bono? If I ever get out of here I will search for lists of calendar makers. If each week is going to be six days long in future, someone with inside information could wind up making a fortune.
