JustPrompts -- Pets (1/1 -- 1/15)
Do you have a pet?
Not here, but I did back home. A little mutt named Copernicus. Don’t know what breed he was exactly, I picked him up from the pound. He was a fluffy dog, prone to shedding. He was named after Nicholas Copernicus, the first European astronomer to formulate and publish the theory that our solar system was heliocentric - that is, that the Earth and other planets revolved around the sun, instead of the sun and other planets revolving around the Earth. Copernicus’s work was a key part in starting the Scientific Revolution and advancing the knowledge of astronomy. I’ve always named my pets after famous scientists, and when I got my puppy I was rather interested in studying the stars, so. . . . He was a good dog - loved to chew on everything, though. Smart as his namesake too. I’d taught him quite a number of tricks before -
I left him at home the night I left. I expected to be back in just a few hours. . . . (Damn it, why do half of these prompts have to remind me of everything I left behind?!)
