Where the dog and cat came from.

A newly discovered chapter in the Book of Genesis has provided the answer to “Where do pets come from?”

Adam said, “Lord, when I was in the garden, you walked with me every day. 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 & will love you as I do, in spite of yourself.”

And God created a new animal to be a companion for 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 a while, 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 who will see him as he is. The companion will remind him of his limitations, so he will know that 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 Cat didn’t give a shit one way or the other.

Brilliant. We have three cats.

Dogs have owners. Cats have Staff.

All is well as long as kitty's needs are properly met...

Awww, all tuckered out!

It's like, you know Ducktales? With Scrooge diving into piles of gold coins?

Although, um, maybe someone should check if the little fella is still breathing...

"Dogs have owners. Cats have Staff." Utterly; joke is "call a dog, it comes to you; call a cat, it takes a message and gets back to you later."

The kitty asleep in the food bowl is HYSTERICAL! Little critters, dogs, cats, BABIES, are so simple in their ways...sleepy? Put head down. Wherever...

I like the way his little kitty paws are draped over the side, like his last act before losing consciousness was to say "MINE!"

I stole this picture from one of the first LOLcat threads I encountered (where was that? I saved it somewhere...) It was a few years ago, and yet every time I see this picture, I can't help but giggle til I cry. Really. And I'm not one given to giggling!

I mean - is it possible to be happier than that kitten? I don't think so. That's one seriously satisfied kitten.

YES! I only noticed that when you wrote it, but you're right, he does look like he "claimed" it before passing out. Kittens are just so damned adorable...!

For all their alleged aloofness, cats can be extremely possessive. I've known cats to DEMAND to be petted and given attention to. If I try to walk away before the proper amount of attention is given, I get swatted at w/ very demanding paws, like " Hey, I didn't give you permission to leave yet! " Cute. A bit creepy too, but also cute.

You do understand that we exist for the cat's satisfaction

Great story.. the other night I got up to go to the bathroom at 2 am and saw a small animal in our house ( we have 2 large dogs) I focus and realize it's a cat, in fact it's the neighbor's cat who has come visiting... Apparently I trained dogs so well to be tolerant of the cats , if any cat walks in and acts as if it belongs, the dogs roll out the welcome wagon:)
