Sassy

Shadow, wait! It's too far. You don't know the way. What if they come back here looking for us?

Sassy

When we get home, the tallest thing I want to climb is a bookshelf.

Sassy
[The log she's on collapses, sending her into the water]

Ah! And I just got this coat cleaned!

[Chance is chewing on an old boot]

Do you have any idea where that's been?

Chance

Yeahhh. That's why I like it. You want some?

Sassy

I'm not really into leather.

Hope
[Chance has just used the see-saw to launch Sassy into the sandbox]

My poor baby! [picks her up] Are you all right?!

Sassy

He threw me in the big litter box!

Peter
[laughs]

Nice shot, Chance!

Chance
[to Shadow]

That's why they call it the "cat"-apult.

Shadow

You've got a lot to learn, pup.

Chance

Locked in. I hate being locked in. This is just like it was back at the pound.

Sassy

Chance, calm down.

Chance

You don't get it, do ya? The pound is where humans lock you up when they don't want you anymore.

Sassy

Not want me? Impossible.

Shadow

Don't listen to him. He's just makin' it up to scare you.

Chance

Oh, yeah? You two pampered pets haven't been out on the streets like I have. I've been to the pound, remember? Don't tell me there's no pound. I know about the pound.

Shadow

Something doesn't smell right. They've been gone way too long. Much longer than they should've been. Something's really wrong.

Chance

Wake up and smell the kibble. They dumped us.

Shadow

No! It isn't true!

Chance

They love you, and they dump you.

Shadow

Not Peter!

Sassy

You could be right, Shadow. It's... It's been too much time, way too much time.

Shadow

Something is keeping Peter from coming to me, so I'm gonna go to him.

Chance

You guys kill me. She locked the gate, remember?

Shadow

I don't care about gates. I'm going home.

Shadow

Home is just over that mountain. We'll be there before dark.

Sassy

How do you figure? It took us ages to get this far.

Shadow

That was the long way. We'll take the shortcut, straight up and over.

Chance

Hey! Wait up! Hey, guys, wait up!

Shadow

I thought you were gonna stay, pup.

Chance

Yeah, but I thought I should come along, in case you two needed protection.

Sassy

My hero! Guess I'm gonna have to stare at YOUR butt the whole way.

Sassy

You just woke me up from a very deep catnap.

Chance

What's the matter, Sassy? Get up on the wrong side of the litter box?

Sassy

Even a great beauty needs her beauty sleep!

Chance

Beauty sleep? You'd have to sleep for, like, a month!

Shadow

Up and at 'em, you two. I found our breakfast.

Chance

Great, I hope it's garbage.

Shadow

Nope, even better.

Sassy

With you two gourmets, I can just imagine.

Chance

Fine, just stay here and diet.

Sassy

Are you calling me fat?

Chance

Of course not, for a hippopotamus- [runs into a small tree] I meant to do that.

Sassy

Ha-ha, serves you right.

Sassy

It's like I said all along, poopsie: cats rule and dogs drool.

Chance

Oh, get a life. Get nine of 'em.

Sassy

But it's true. Cats are smarter than dogs, and more attractive...and we don't drink from the toilet!

Chance
[A porcupine walks by]

Whoa. Hey, check it out, intruder at 4 o'clock.

Sassy

What is that?

Chance

You got me. I think it's a squirrel having a really bad hair day. [starts to follow it] Whoa, hey...

Shadow

Leave it alone, Chance.

Chance

Are you kidding me? I gotta check this out! [to the porcupine] Hey, you, pal!

Shadow

No, don't! It doesn't smell right.

Chance

Would you look at this guy? This is, like, mondo bizarro! [circles it] All right, pal, you know the routine: assume the position, I sniff you, you sniff me... [the porcupine tries to leave, but he keeps pestering it] Hey. Hey. Hey, where you going? Hey, did I say you could go? Come back here! Hey, what about that hair? What, did you stick your tongue in a toaster? [he gets too close, and the porcupine smacks him with its tail, leaving quills in his face, making him yelp and scream] HE BIT ME WITH HIS BUTT! [whimpers in pain]

Shadow

Oh, Chance, you really are a bulldog, aren't you?

Chance
[sobbing]

I was just curious!

Sassy

Like my mother always said, curiosity killed the dog.

Sassy
[finds Shadow in his cage in the animal shelter]

So, big fella, what're ya in for?

Shadow

Sassy? Sassy!

Sassy

Shh, keep it down.

Shadow

I thought I told you to run away.

Sassy

I never listen to dogs.

Fat Guy

Here, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty.

Sassy
[mimicking]

"Here, kitty, kitty, kitty." Not on your life, chubby.

Fat Guy

Here, kitty, kitty. Here, kitty. SCAT! Here, kitty, kitty, kitty.

Sassy

No, dummy, dummy, dummy, dummy.

Fat Guy
[goes back inside]

Dumb...cat!

Sassy

Oh, what a bozo.
