Something cute to brighten up your day. If you didn't love cats, you love them now.

I love all animals and I thought this gif was adorable.

It called to mind this old humourous passage I read online...I don't know where it's originally from, so sadly I cannot give credit.

It is especially fitting for this forum since God and the Story of Creation is the vehicle for the joke.

I've had both cats and dogs, and I find it hilarious.

If you've never read it before, enjoy:


                                                                        Why God Made Cats And Dogs


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 everyday. Now I do not see you anymore.
I am lonesome here & 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 & he wagged his tail.

And Adam said, "Lord, I have already named all the animals in the Kingdom & 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 & was a companion to him & loved him.
And Adam was comforted.
And God was pleased.
And Dog was content & wagged his tail. 

After a while, it came to pass that Adam's guardian angel came to the Lord & said,
"Lord, Adam has become filled with pride. He struts & preens like a peacock & 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 & 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 the Cat didn't give a shit one way or the other.
