One day a cat dies of natural causes and goes to heaven.
Greeting him the Lord says, "You have lived a good life. If there is any way I can make your stay in Heaven more comfortable, please let Me know."
The cat thinks for a minute and says, "Well, all my life I lived with a poor family and has to sleep on a hard wooden floor."
The Lord stops the cat and says, "Say no more!" Just then a wonderful fluffy pillow appears and the cat contentedly wanders off to find a good place to nap.
The mice answer, "All of our lives we have been chased. We have to run from cats, from tractors, even from that farmer;s wife with her broom. We are tired of running..."
"Say No More!" The Lord replies. In a flash, each mouse is fitted with a beautiful new pair of roller skates, and they skate happily off to explore the Heavenly landscape.
About a week later, the Lord stops by to see the cat and finds him snoozing away. He gently wakes the cat and asks, "How are things since you got here?"
The cat stretches, yawns and replies.."Oh, it is wonderful here. I get a lot of great sleep on this pillow. And those "Meals On Wheels" you have been sending are the BEST!"
