"Animal Heaven"
The Scene: The Pearly Gates to Heaven. St Peter is receptionist
at the entrance. A cat shows up.
St Peter says "I know you! You were a very nice cat on earth
and didn't cause any trouble, so I want to offer a gift to you
of one special thing you have always wanted."
Cat: "Well, I did always long to own a nice satin pillow like
my master had, so I could lie on it."
St Peter: "That's easy. Granted. You shall have the satin
pillow after you enter in."
Next a group of mice appeared.
St Peter: "Ah, I remember you. You were such good mice on
earth. You didn't steal food from anyone's house and never hurt
other animals. Therefore, I want to grant you one special wish
you always wanted."
The Chief Mouse replied, "Well, we always watched the children
playing and saw them roller skate, and it was beautiful, and it
looked like so much fun. So can we each have some roller
skates, please?"
St Peter: "Granted. You shall have your wish."
Next day, St Peter is making the rounds inside the Gates, and
sees the cat.
"Well, Cat ... Did you enjoy the satin pillow?"
Cat: "Oh, indeed I did. And say ... that "Meals on Wheels"
thing was a nice touch, too!"
