A dog owner comes home from work to find his dog waiting for him behind the door. The dog is wagging his tail, delighted beyond measure to see his master again. He wags his tail in glee, and licks his master’s face. The owner drops everything and starts petting the dog, stroking his head and tickling him behind the ears.
“Oh, you are so good to me,” thinks the dog. “You pet me, feed me, fuss me and look after me. You take care of all my needs every day. Truly you must be God!”
A cat owner comes home from work to find his cat sitting calmly on the sofa. He sits down next to his pet, who licks her paw thoughtfully while her owner strokes her and brings out various little toys to amuse her. After a while, the cat nuzzles her head against her owner’s hand and he is delighted by the attention.
“Oh, you are so good to me,” thinks the cat. “You pet me, feed me, fuss me and look after me. You take care of all my needs every day. Surely I must be God!”
