Why pets (dogs/cats) are better than religion
#22
RE: Why pets (dogs/cats) are better than religion
Hmmm - my ferret's name is 'Ahimsa Dharma' = 'lesson of peace' because despite the fact that ferrets are horrible destructive, they don't have a mean bone in their weasely little bodies. No, she does not love me unconditionally - unconditional love is a neurosis. I earned her love by being the most fun person in her world. Hell, I gave her a 55gal aquarium filled with edible packing peanuts, how's that for ferret fun? And, of course, as ferrets do, she died badly at 5 years of age. Marshall Farms and their inbreeding, selling ferrets doomed to die of adrenal cancer or insulinoma - well, sometimes I wish there were a hell. Still - I Speak For the Weasels. let it be known.
