REINCARkittyNATION

I was having a funny convo the other day with my roommate. We have a cat. So the other day he was doing something to her that was pissing her off, as per usual, but for some reason she totally loves his ass more than mine, even though I always take up for her, save her life and all - BUT ANYWAYS, I couldn't be bothered. So he is pissing her off and I go:
ME: SHA-NA (what I call him), leave her alone, how would you like it if I did that to you?
HIM: (laughs and ignores me)
ME: What if Da'Baby (her name) is a reincarnation of someone we know, and you are being so mean to them?
HIM: No Way, you think that
ME: I don't know, but you never know - sometimes when I am changing my clothes she looks at me weird.
(like this is a sign, she just might not like what she sees, who could blame her, hahahah)
HIM: me too, I usually tell her to get out of my room because it freaks me out.
ME: when I was studying religion, I talked to this Krishna guy and he said that depending on how you weigh out good/bad (karma) will decide what you come back as after you die - for example if you come back as a tree, not so good, animal is a little better but not the greatest.
HIM: well coming back as a cat might not be so bad, she doesn't have to do shit all day, just sleep and eat
ME: well she can't very well tell us anything she wants, you know how she is sometimes, and she has food, she has water and we still can't figure out what is wrong with her, just think if that was us
HIM: NA, I don't believe in reincarnation
ME: well you never know... what if you die, and you reach heaven, and God is there and so is Da'Baby and poof, she is a person, you are going to totally feel like an ass
HIM: what do you think God put someone in her, to tell on us when we get to heaven?
ME: well maybe not, BUT you are going to feel real embarrassed, just knowing all the shit you did
HIM: I doubt GOD would do this
ME: probably not...
He keeps pissing her off and I keep watching t.v.

Now I don't want to get all philosophical, but it is an interesting thought. Are our pets people just paying their karma dept, being our real life stuffed animal? I look at Da'baby sometimes and I feel she is not thinking very good of me, or that she is annoyed by me - and I know cats are known for their attitudes. The question is, WHY DON'T WE QUESTION THEIR ATTITUDES, why is it okay for a cat to have an attitude problem?

Well this was silly
