When Fido Gets 'Left Behind'

“You've committed your life to Jesus. You know you're saved.  But when the Rapture comes, what's to become of your loving pets who are left behind?”  So begins the Web site Eternal Earthbound Pets, which offers a unique service – post-Rapture pet care.  For about one hundred dollars, Bart Centre or one of his atheist associates will agree to take care of your dogs, cats, birds and small caged mammals, in the event that you are removed from the Earth.  It’s one of a crop of new Web sites (among them a post-Rapture postal service) that are turning the end of the world into a business opportunity.
