h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

thanks. Reading this helps.

But apaert from the obvious incongruity that over the last three days I've cried more for a pet cat than for either of my parents...

I'll come back later with something more reflective.

But if there isn't a cat-flap in the Pearly Gates, something's wrong with Heaven. And as they say it's a place of milk and honey, Heaven must therefore logically make room for bees and bovines. If the lion shall lie down with the lamb, large felines (plus a food source) get in.

If a sweet-tempered cat with a real personality who was loved by half a street can't get in, then I'm complaining to the management.

thank you. And goodnight Ruby. (approx. thre years old, deceased Friday 26th March 2010). Knowing you was a real privilege. I'm sorry it could not have been longer.
