Piddles is dead

Little Lucy went out into the garden and saw her cat Piddles lying on the ground
with its eyes shut and its legs in the air. She picked Piddles up and took him
to her Daddy, who on seeing the cat said as gently as he could;

"I'm afraid Piddles is dead Lucy"

"So why are his legs sticking up in the air like that Daddy?" asked Lucy, as she
fought back the tears.

At a loss for something to say the father replied "piddles legs are pointing
straight up in the air so that it will be easier for Jesus to float down from
heaven and grab the legs so the he can take Piddles up to heaven."

Little Lucy seemed to take her Piddles death quite well, However two days later
when her father came home from work Lucy had tears in her eyes and said "Mummy
nearly died this morning."

Fearing something terrible had happened the father picked up his little girl and
asked gently. "What do you mean Lucy Please tell Daddy"

"Well" mumbled Lucy through her tears, "soon after you left for work this
morning I saw mummy 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."
