when a new cat comes in and uses his hypnotic powers to ruin a freindship between a dog and a ferret


Okay I know you hate my stories but I'm going to tell you another one, if you don't like my stories, leave now... wait don't go, I was just kidding, please stay, I'm lonely... Anyway, that is the most comedy you are gonna get in this story, I'd like to tell you a story of true friendship, and knowing you can be yourself no matter what and who happens to you. Now you all know cats and dogs don't like each other, no clue why, but here is what happens when one tries to change another, it hurts the friendship with the neutral one, if you don't know, ferrets get along well with both cats and dogs, but here, it gets put to the ultimate test, so with no more stalling, let's meet some pets.

It was a nice winter night and there was light rain, living out in the suburbs there was a man with his dog and his ferret. While those pets love their parent, they care for each other so much more and love to play together. One night their parent noticed a noise outside and found a stray cat going through his trash and he decided to adopt him. The ferret and the cat hit it off somewhat but the cat didn't like the dog very much.

"Hi, you must be the new cat, I'm Spike and the ferret is JoJo, he's sleeping right now, so I was wondering, do you want to go out and play in the pool?" the brown and gray dog asked hoping to make him happy.

"Let me get this straight, I don't like dogs, dogs are needy, greedy, smelly, hyper suck ups and are not on any level as good as a cat," the cat responded, trying to antagonize the dog.

"Well, what do you want me to do? I want you to be as close as JoJo and I are, what do you want me to do?" he responded, this dog really wants to get along with this cat, but the cat has a plan, and that became apparent once the cat looked into the dog's eyes and both pairs began to glow.

"Just listen to me, from now on, you're a pussy-hound, you don't want to be like a dog anymore, you want to be just like a cat, more, elegant, and passive, you're a nice little pussy-hound, do you understand?" the cat asked, hypnotizing the dog.

"I am a pussy-hound... I am a pussy-hound..." the dog said in a slow monotonous voice.

"Perfect, from now on, you will act just like me, and do whatever I say, just like a good little pussy-hound, understood?"

"Yes, I'm a nice little pussy-hound..." he restated as his glowing eyes turned into red swirls momentarily.

"Hehe, that's just what I wanted to hear..." the cat said as the screen faded to black.

The next morning the ferret had woken up bright and early and was excited to play with his friend, like every morning, though cats don't really like waking up early, too bad for JoJo, he doesn't like to be alone, like most ferrets.

"Hey Spike, it's 6:00 AM, ready to run around and play?" the ferret asked while trying to wake the dog up.

"Ugh, ugh... not now, it's 6:00 AM, I'm supposed to sleep for like another ten hours..." the dog responded before falling back to sleep by the cat.

"Sense when do you sleep in? We get up early every morning to play, why are you giving me the cold shoulder? Plus you've been sleeping sense three o'clock yesterday, don't you want to play?" the ferret responded, confused and a little hurt.

"Ugh, let me sleep..." he said, sounding annoyed.

"Uh, okay, I'll ask again later..." he said, sounding much more hurt.

The two had awoken at noon when their parent woke them up for feeding time. The ferret had rushed over hoping they could play afterwords, but due to the large house, he's gonna be running for a while. After the food was placed out for all three, the dog was about to start until...

"Upubpubpup, what are you doing?" the cat asked.

"Um I was going to eat, why do you ask?" he responded, kind of confused.

"That's dog food, last time I checked, you were a pussy-hound, aren't I right...?" he cat asked ending with his eyes glowing again and the dog's eyes began to spin again.

"Yes... I'm a pussy-hound..." the dog said in a trance for a moment until he shook it off and his eyes stopped spinning, right once the ferret arrived. At that moment the dog knocked his bowl over and started to eat out of the cat's bowl, much to the ferret's confusion.

"Um Spike, you do realize that's cat food right?" the ferret asked confused.

"Yea, it's better than that gross dog food stuff, Tom convinced me that a lot of stuff I liked was not really for me, and once we're done eating we're gonna go take a nap outside." Spike said in a kinda sassy tone.

"But I thought we we're gonna play tug of war, that's our favorite game." he said now feeling sad.

"Really? that sounds like fun act..." the dog began until hi saw the cat's eyes glow then he faintly whispered, "I'm a pussy-hound..."

"Sorry little rat, he doesn't want to play that dumb kiddy game anymore, he just wants to spend time with me, not you, now go eat your gross ferret food and play alone somewhere." the cat told him in a much more sarcastic and condescending voice. Now the ferret was both sad and also mad, so he went to his food bowl and he had a lot on his mind.

Later that day after the cat and dog had taken a nap in the back yard, the ferret walked out and noticed the cat and the dog out by the fence. Spike was about to dig a hole in the dirt but before he knew it, the cat's eyes glowed and the ferret was confused. "What on earth is that?" he asked to himself. Following, he heard the dog call himself a pussy-hound and he was wondering what that meant. Now the ferret wasn't really bright but mainly he knew when he was being cheated and he wanted to know what was going on. He went over to the two and said, "Hey Spike, our parent wants to see you, he said something about a mess in your litter box..." the dog ran over right at that moment. "Okay kitty, what have you done with the dog?" he asked in rage.

"I've made him an acceptable companion for a cat, that's all little rat." he responded sounding nonchalant.

"And what about the who what when where why and how, please tell me that, he's sleeping 93% of the day, and the other seven percent he's eating cat food, how did you convince him of that?"

"Simple..." he responded as his eyes began to glow, "I've learned to hypnotize any pet to be like me, like you..." The ferret's eyes began to glow and he made a nice smile and he began to agree with the cat until he managed to shrug it off and scold the cat.

"Wow, wait, so Spike's hypnotized?" he interrupted in anger.

"Yes, he's completely under my control... as are you little ferret..." the cat continued as his eyes glowed again until the ferret's eyes glowed too but he still shook it off. "What the? How are you resisting me so much?"

"Because hypnotism doesn't work on dumb people, comedy TV shows have it backwards, I don't have enough brain power to give it up... at least not yet..." he said as he suddenly walked off leaving the cat confused and still careless.

Weeks have passed sense the cat had arrived and turned the dog into a pussy-hound, and the ferret had surprisingly been very A-wall sense the realization that his friend has been hypnotized. After this long time he finally came back down to the two and had a surprisingly happy look on his face.

"Hello rat, please leave so we can get some sleep, we haven't slept in almost half an hour." Spike said with sarcasm, now that he doesn't like fun anymore.

"Look Tom, I've been thinking a lot lately and I've realized that if being hypnotized means I can be with my best friend again, I'll do it, so just try it on me again and we can be boring together." the ferret said, surrendering.

"Really, what made you want to change?"

"I'm tired of being alone, with you I'd be boring but at least I'd have friends, so look in my eyes and let's start the hypnotism." he responded.

At that moment the cat looked him in the eyes but to his surprise, the ferret's eyes began to glow first, and before the cat could announce his surprise, his eyes started to glow. "I spent the last few weeks learning hypnosis for myself, not only do I want my friend back, I'm going to make you my friend too, so just hold on while I get my best friend back," he said as he turned around and the cat's eyes turned into red swirls. Following, the ferret looked at the dog and both their eyes glowed, the dog struggled a bit because his brain is getting used to hypnosis, but he got him in his trance. "Now I want you to repeat after me, Spike, you're a dog, you love being a dog and you want to stay a dog, Tom, from now on you're a pussy-ferret, you will look like a cat but you will be as kind and playful as a ferret..."

"I am a dog, I am a dog..."

"I am a pussy-ferret, I am a pussy-ferret..."

"Perfect..." the ferret said as the screen faded to black again.

"The next morning, the three woke up at 6:00 AM sharp and were happy to play, they could run all day, first they played tug of war, then they wrestled for hours, and then they played more tug of war, the ferret, the dog, and the pussy-ferret were having so much fun playing, and fortunately the ferret didn't let his new hypnotic powers go to his head, all he really uses it for it to get extra treats from their carer, he won't tear up any friendships.
