With the rapture coming today, what are we supposed to do with our pets?
Should I just leave a couple bags of food and a bunch of bowls of water out for my dog? What's everybody else doing?

2. There's a guy in NH who will promise to take care of them for $135 *IF* you are raptured.
No refunds.

Rachel Maddow said he's made $34K off of morons so far.

4. My dog and two of the cats are definitely heaven bound. The other cat I am not so sure about.
She is Siamese and may be evil.

5. Some Saimese cats may actually be evil - but ALL of them sound that way.

3. Oh, c'mon. Do you think any major league rapturer wouldn't have the pets covered?

6. When they first evolved, they lived in the wild
Guess they can do it again. They will start running in packs. Dogs will rule the world!

7. Sadly, some people are euthanizing them:
"Pets Seized From Sonoma Co. Man Planning Pre-Rapture Killings"

BOYES HOT SPRINGS (CBS 5) –" On Friday night, animal control officials in Sonoma County seized three animals belonging to a man who planned to euthanize the pets ahead of Saturday’s predicted “Judgment Day.”

Bill Tinker of Boyes Hot Springs turned over the cockatiel, parrot and cat to Sonoma County Animal Care and Control, after word spread about his plans to put down his pets."

http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2011/05/20/sonoma-county-man-plans-mercy-killing-of-pets-ahead-of-rapture/

Unfortunately, he is not the only one - I have seen several stories about the "believers" putting down their pets.
