Little Catie went out into the backyard and saw her cat Fluffy lying on the ground with its eyes shut and its legs in the air. She fetched her Dad to look at Fluffy, and on seeing the
cat he said, as gently as he could.
"I'm afraid Fluffy is dead, Catie."
"So why are his legs sticking up in the air like that, Daddy?" asked Catie as she fought back the tears.
At a loss for something to say the father replied, "Fluffy' legs are pointing straight up in the air so that it will be easier for Jesus to float down from heaven above and grab a leg and lift Fluffy up to heaven."
Little Catie seemed to take her Fluffy' death quite well. However, two days
later when her father came home from work, Catie had tears in her eyes and said: "Mommy almost died this morning."
Fearing something terrible had happened the father shook the girl and shouted, "How do you mean Catie? Tell Daddy!"
"Well", mumbled Catie, "soon after you left for work this morning I saw mommy lying on the floor with her legs in the air and she was shouting, "Oh Jesus!!! I'm coming, I'm coming!!!" and if it hadn't been for the milkman holding her down she would definitely have
gone, Daddy".
