If you haven't seen Post Rapture Pets, or their competitors Post Rapture Pet Care, you really should. If everyone in this newly-found market really believes what they purport to believe, these guys should be raking it in - and it seems to be a big enough market to warrant at least two players, and there are apparently unaffiliated ads on Craigslist too.
(PS isn't it amazing that an apocalypse cult can struggle on for more than two thousand years and still, even now, be claiming that the apocalypse is just around the corner? Got to admire that sort of tenacity.)
Some people will believe anything, tie it into something people love, like pets, and you can make a killing.

Even as a Christian I find this more than a little ridiculous. For some reason they think that there will be people left behind as if life is going to carry on as normal. Any knowledge of the bible (at all) completely washes this idea.
People will buy anything

Hey, they only need to be right once about when the apocalypse will be. :-)

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.

Has anyone thought about a service for family members? Each believer that will be gone is sure to leave a number of non-believing family members. Who will look after the children, aging parents,or favorite aunt? Sopmething to think about.

I emailed Bart Centre, the owner of this pet rapture service and told him that I was Christian and it was my understanding that it is illegal to sell a service which you believe that you will never have to deliver. He became very angry and emailed me a note with a link for me to connect to. He said the link was his “lawyer” He lied.
It was not a link to a lawyer at all it was link to a picture of a sex toy molded in the shape of Jesus the Christ. Keep in mind this guy Bart Centre does not know who I am nor whether I am 15 or 50 years of age. Shame on him. He does not have Christians best interest at heart and he is a dirty old man, in my opinion. He is mocking Christians and God

Hey Susan4110-
Here's a clue for the brainwashed: Anyone offering to take care of your pets after the "Rapture" doesn't have your best interests at heart, obviously only his bank account's. And I applaud him for it.
You moron.
