                     NOTE FROM THE LIST VET:

     A woman in central Thailand held a lavish funeral for a
    monitor lizard believed to have been the reincarnation of
     her 12-year-old son, who died in a road accident nearly
                          two years ago.

      "But Sandra," you ask, "how can I tell if MY pet is a
              reincarnated relative?" Here ya go...


       The Top 9 Signs Your Pet Is a Reincarnated Relative


9> The cat is giving you the same scornful look that your late
    mother-in-law did.

8> Her litter of kittens all have your nose.

7> Grandma is inconsolable after seeing the dog drool just like
   Grandpa used to.

6> Spot humps the same spot on your leg your late husband always
   did.

5> The cat never misses an opportunity to take a dump in your
   mother's shoe, just like your husband always wanted to.

4> Uncle Phil always smelled like tuna, too.

3> Your parrot keeps saying "Oy, I TOLD you your cooking was
   killing me!"

2> Lazy, sheds everywhere, thinks he's God's gift, wants 
   affection when it's least convenient for you, demands food 
   at all hours, stinks up the bathroom, never comes when you 
   call him, out all night chasing tail. Yep, that's your dear, 
   departed husband, all right.


    and the Number 1 Sign Your Pet Is a Reincarnated Relative...


1> He always leaves the litterbox lid up.
