Your friendly curator is wrapping up some editing for a freelance client and will be back to her usual post within the week!  But till then, have a look at this thought-provoking article from 2013 by Miles Klee: "Pet Cemetery: Pets and the Great Beyond."  Here's a quote from Klee's consideration of dogs: ". . . no other animal so aptly demonstrates how the soul and destiny of human civilization is bound up with the rest of nature." Good, right? You'll like the rest.
