Jerry's Diary is a 1949 one-reel animated cartoon that is the 45th Tom and Jerry short released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, produced by Fred Quimby, scored by Scott Bradley, and animated by Kenneth Muse and Ed Barge. It is the first of several compilation Tom and Jerry shorts, integrating footage from previous shorts into the plot.

Plot

Tom sets up traps for Jerry but is interrupted by a radio announcement declaring it "Be Kind To Animals" week. He replaces the traps with gifts, only to find Jerry's diary and read about their past encounters. Each entry sparks a memory of their misadventures, from golfing mishaps to dynamite disasters. As Tom's frustration grows, he destroys Jerry's presents in anger. When Jerry returns home, Tom tries to strangle him, but the radio reminds him to be kind. Instead, Tom throws a pie at Jerry, leaving him dazed
