Cat and Mouse Heaven
This cat died and went to heaven.
St. Peter said to the cat, "You have had a difficult life and
we would like to do something nice to welcome you to heaven. What
would make you comfortable and happy now that you have arrived in
heaven?"
The cat replied, "Yes, life
was tough. I either had wood floors or concrete sidewalks to lie
on. If I could have a nice fluffy pillow on which to curl up, I
will be very happy."
St. Peter told the cat, "A
thick fluffy pillow will be given to you, and may you rest
well."
Next in line to enter the pearly
gates were six mice. They had much the same conversation about a
tough life. They were telling St. Peter how they were always being
chased. They were continuously having to run and hide. They said
they would like something to help. St. Peter suggested tiny roller
skates. This made the mice very happy indeed.
After a time, St. Peter decided he
would check on the cat to see if he was happy and
comfortable. He found the cat absolutely delighted. The cat
said, "The comfort provided by the pillow couldn't be better,
and the meals on wheels were delicious!"
