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 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, 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, "Well, we have had to run all
of our lives: from cats, dogs, and even
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 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, it is WONDERFUL. I
have never been so happy in my life. The
pillow is so fluffy, and those little Meals
on Wheels you have been sending over are
delicious!"
