THE HISTORY OF PETS

A newly discovered chapter from the Book of Genesis

has provided the answer to "Where do pets come from?"

Adam and Eve said, "Lord, when we were in the garden,

you walked with us every day. Now we do not see you

any more. We are lonesome here, and it is difficult

for us to remember how much you love us."

And God said, I will create a companion for you that

will be with you 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 yourselves."

And God created a new animal to be a companion for

Adam and Eve. And it was a good animal. And God was

pleased. And the new animal was pleased to be with

Adam and Eve 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, "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 Eve and was a companion to

them and loved them. And they were comforted. And

God was pleased. And Dog was content and wagged his

tail.

After a while, it came to pass that an angel came to

the Lord and said, "Lord, Adam and Eve have become

filled with pride. They strut and preen like peacocks

and they believe they are worthy of adoration. Dog

has indeed taught them that they are loved, but

perhaps too well."

And God said, I will create for them a companion who

will be with them and who will see them as they are.

The companion will remind them of their limitations,

so they will know that they are not always worthy of

adoration."

And God created CAT to be a companion to Adam and Eve.

And Cat would not obey them. And when Adam and Eve

gazed into Cat's eyes, they were reminded that they

were not the supreme beings.

And Adam and Eve learned humility. And they were

greatly improved.

And God was pleased. And Dog was happy.

And Cat didn't give a shit one way or the other
