Where do pets come from?

Where do pets come from? A newly discovered chapter in the Book of Genesis has provided the answer. Adam and Eve said to God "when we were in the garden you walked with us every day. Now we do not see you much any more, we are lonely here, and it is difficult for us to remember how much you love us." 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 can love me even when you can not 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 so God created a new animal to be a companion for Adam and Eve. And it was a good animal, God was pleased. The new animal was pleased to be with Adam and Eve and he wagged his tail. Adam said, "Lord, I have already named all the animals in the Kingdom, I can not 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 Eve and was a companion to them and loved them, and they were comforted. God was pleased. And Dog was contented and wagged his tail. After awhile, 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 taught them that they are loved, but perhaps too well." God said "no problem, I will create for them a companion who will be with them forever 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 companion to Adam and Eve. And Cat would not obey them. 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 wagged his tail. And Cat didn't care one way or the other......................
