A cat died and went to heaven. God met her at the gates and said "You have been a good cat all these years. Anything you want is yours for the asking." The cat thought for a minute and then said "All my life I lived on a farm and slept on hard wooden floors. I would really like a fluffy pillow to sleep on."
God said "Say no more." Instantly the cat had a huge fluffy pillow.
A few days later six mice were killed in an accident and they all went to heaven together. God met the mice at the gates with the same offer that he made to the cat.
The mice said "We have had to run all of our lives; from cats, dogs, people with brooms. If we could just have some little roller skates, we would not 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 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, it is WONDERFUL. I have never been so happy. The pillow is so fluffy, and those little meals on wheels you have been sending me are delicious!"

Rock Chef, you already knew not to ask for skates, right?

Domestic cats nowadays don't eat mice anymore. My cat Kiki enjoys killing spiders though (because we dont have mice).
So sorry for the long absence, i was a bit busy.

Anne, this holiday season is indeed being kind to me. Thank you for being part of the kindness being sent my way.
Shadowthorne, hmmm. I am hoping when the field mice try to come in the house a cat will at least bat them around.
Brian, meals on wheels is something the senior center does every day. Thank you for the "bestest" of wishes.
HA! "meals on wheels"...
We recently lost our cat. I can picture him laying around and having the mice skate to him. Merry Christmas, CiCi!
Ha ha, that's funny!!
I hope you have a good Christmas. I think I've missed something here, I had no idea that things have gone wrong with your marriage. I missed this fact in your posts. Sorry for being so slow.
I really hope you can stay positive and enjoy this time of the year anyway. My thoughts are with you at this time.
LOL. Liked the story. Meals on wheels will never be the same to me from now on.
