Pets and How You Love Them

I currently have three pets. The first is my dog who has just reached his first birthday. He is a Bloodhound/German Sheppard mix. He was already named Digger by the shelter I adopted him from. I guess that should have been a warning. I have holes in my yard that look like bomb craters. Mut he should have been named jaws. He entirely chewed up my cable for TV satellite as well as the Internet satellite cables. I had quite a number of cables and AC/DC power adapters and he must have destroyed 75% of those. If that weren't enough he got under my pickup truck and pulled the wiring cables loose and chewed them beyond repair. Turns out he also got the brake lines and rubber hoses as well. The truck made its last journey to the salvage yard. He is such a lovable dog though. I finally have him coming out of his destructive stage. My other two pets are ferrets. A male (Hob) named Atlas and a female (Jill) named Cassiopa. Ferrets are much like dogs as well as kittens that never gr up. They dance around dooking it out. Both will sleep with me curled up behind my knees. I have been a dog oner most of my life. And i have owned ferrets since I was 22. At one time I had 11. Back in January, I had 5. All were over 9 years old. Long lives as ferrets go. By March, 2 of them had died. I bought the two I know have in an attempt to revitalize the remaining three. it worked for several weeks, but one by one, the other three died. My favorite was named Genghis and he was the last. I held him in my arms from 5 PM util 2 AM as he slipped in and out of death. Finally I put him in his sleep cube as I could do no more. I got up at 4:30 and he had passed. But they are now at the Rainbow Bridge, along with all the other loving pets I had. There they are young again, healthy and playing. And they are waiting to see me again in about 60 years when we will all cross over that bridge. In the meantime Atlas and Cassiopa have a little bit of all of them watching them as well as me. Every pet I ever had loved me unconditionally and looked upon me as a goddess. I should mention my previous dog. The nobelist and brave i ever had. He was half pit bull and half Red Labrador Retriever. Once the took on two raccoons raiding my garden. He sent both home to die. And another time he took on and won against a neighbors 3 dogs in my yard. A wolf hybrid, a pit bull and a Great Dane. The Pit Bull had a bleeding nose, he ripped the great Dane's Ear and the Wolf wa limping. My dog did not have a scratch. And it was those 3 who attacked him first. I add that he was very gentle. He would play with the ferrets and sometimes even carry them around. Appropriately named, Buddy. In time, I belive, Digger will turn out much like him.

Well, as a Physicist, this scenario may be wishful thinking. But I can say for certain that death is not the end. People and pets are all immortal. While they do die, they simply change form. Every atom of our existence has been here from the beginning of the universe. And it will remain so even beyond the end of it. For even if an atom is broken, the sub atomic particles reassemble and it all starts over again. Maybe you end up a plant or another animal. Perhaps as fuel to feed a star.
