Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for August 16, 2022

But what about the cats?

And the existence of corporate lawyers prove that the other place exists too.

I agree. Never mind the rats, goats and pigs.

I expect to seemy pups there!

Good thot, but not really original: “If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die, I want to go where they went.” —Will Rogers, American humorist

Unlikely. People invented dogs.

Heaven goes by favor. If it didn’t you would stay out and your dog would go in -Mark Twain

Dogs are our angels on Earth.

Pig is very astute!

This gives me another opportunity to post Wendy Francisco’s touching song:

… and when the going gets tough, Rats abandon ship and sink.

I’ve seen lots of places dogs go; Mom’s flower pot, the fireplug, Dad’s car tires, your favorite garden gnome…

Well said. Dogs are absolutely awesome. They are uncomplicated, loyal, and truthful, and much better than most people. I love them.

Imagine there’s no Heaven…..(it’s easy if you try).

Oh why can’t I “like” a bagillian times MUAH!

the wife says I’m a dog…..does that count???

So happy that Pig did not lose his kindhearted opinions.

Dogs? But, you’re a pig. Where do pigs go? And rats? And goats? What about them?

Heaven and Hell…

“GOD forbid that I should go to any Heaven in which there are no horses”. Or dogs. Or cats. Or…

Yet another great twilight zone episode, “the hunt.“ A man and his dog died, but his dog prevents the man from being fooled into getting to hell, and instead make sure that he goes to heaven

If there are no dogs in heaven, I don’t want to go.

(note: I don’t believe in heaven, but if any creature deserved to go there if it did exist, it is surely dogs)

They go to that Big Litter Box in the sky.

They go over the Rainbow bridge and cats to the right and dogs to the left…

Reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode The Hunt.

There was one who came and taught about it. They killed him, but he was resurrected from the dead.

God created them. Some things are not revealed to us. Secrets and speculation are fun to think about.

Don’t they usually go by a fire hydrant?

….and that’s the truth! People…not so much.

That would be cool seeing my family’s dog in heaven. The thing is, he didn’t like other dogs, so I wonder how chaotic that would be.

This is a firm belief of mine. All dogs, cats, and all other pets go to heaven. Because let’s be honest, God would not have made pets so lovable if they weren’t coming to heaven.

Where would all the toasters go?

Thanks to all who posted links.

The people above me have 2 dogs. The window in their apartment is low enough that the dogs can see out. This morning that started barking like crazy, I looked out and there was a cat in the driveway. Once that cat saw that the dogs couldn’t get out, it sat down.

I thought dogs went off to a beautiful farm upstate.

In ancient Egypt, Cats were worshipped as Gods.

Cats have never forgotten that.

There’s a special “limbo” section for Rottweilers.

Can’t beat that logic. Only question is, will they still want us or will they want someone better? It is Heaven you know…..

Better to just Imagine. . .

Pig wasn’t even thinking on his feet!

My dad is now spending time with the family dog that dragged him around as a kid. There are dogs in heaven.

All Dogs Go to Heaven.

Goat’s experience must be rather limited if that’s the best he’s heard!

You got that right! All dogs definitely go to heaven!

Instead of an afterlife, I’d like to have a do-over.

Steph, possibly your best ever.

I can’t argue with this.
