A Cat Died

A cat died and went to Heaven. God met the animal at the

Pearly Gates and said, “You have been a good cat all of

these years. Anything you want is yours for the asking.”

The cat thought for a moment and then said, “All my life I

lived on a farm and slept on hard, wooden floors… I would

like a real fluffy pillow to sleep on.” God said, “Say

no more.” Instantly, the cat had a HUGE fluffy pillow. A

few days later, 12 mice were simultaneously killed in an

accident and they all went up to Heaven together. God met

the mice at the Gates of Heaven, with the exact same offer

that He made to the cat. The mice said, “Well, we have had

to run all of our lives… from cats, dogs, and even from

people with brooms. If we could just have some little

roller-skates, we would never have to run again.” God

answered, “It is done.” All the mice had beautiful

little roller-skates. About a week later, God decided to

check on the cat… He found her sound asleep on her fluffy

pillow. God gently awakened the cat and asked, “Is

everything okay? How have you been doing? Are you happy?”

The cat replied, “Oh, everything is just WONDERFUL…

I’ve never been so happy in my life! My pillow is always

fluffy and those little “Meals-on-Wheels” that You have

been sending over are delicious.”
