Where the Dog and Cat Came
From:found on the
web
A newly discovered
chapter in the Book has provided the answer to
"Where do pets come from?"
Adam said, "Lord when I was in the garden,
you walked with me everyday. Now I do not see
you anymore, I am lonesome here and it is
difficult for me to remember how much you love
me."
And God said, "No problem, I will create a
companion for you that will be with you forever
and who will be a reflection of my love for
you, so that you will love me even when you
cannot see me. Regardless of how selfish or
childish or unlovable you may be, this new
companion will accept you as you are and will
love you as I do, in spite of yourself."
And God created a new animal to be a
companion to Adam. And it was a good animal.
And God was pleased. And the new animal was
pleased to be with Adam and he wagged his tail.
And Adam said, "Lord, I have already named all
the animals in the Kingdom and I cannot think
of a name for this new animal." And God said,
"No problem! Because I have created this new
animal to be a reflection of my love for you,
his name will be a reflection of my own name,
and you will call him DOG."
And Dog lived with Adam and was a companion
to him and loved him. And Adam was comforted.
And God was pleased. And Dog was content and
wagged his tail.
After awhile, it came to pass that Adam's
guardian angel came to the Lord and said,
"Lord, Adam has become filled with pride. He
struts and preens like a peacock and he
believes he is worthy of adoration. Dog has
indeed taught him that he is loved, but perhaps
too well."
And the Lord said, " No problem! I will
create for him a companion who will be with him
forever and will see him as he is. The
companion will remind him of his limitations,
so he will know he is not always worthy of
adoration."
And God created CAT to be a companion to
Adam. And Cat would not obey Adam.
And when Adam gazed into Cat's eyes, he was
reminded that he was not the Supreme Being. And
Adam learned humility.
And God was pleased.
And Adam was greatly improved.
And Dog was happy.
And the Cat didn't give a spit one way or
the other.
