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?"
