The Mice’s Turn
Shortly thereafter, six mice arrive at heaven’s gates. God extends the same generous offer to them. The mice, weary from a lifetime of being chased by predators and humans alike, request a means to escape such dangers in the afterlife. They ask for roller skates, hoping for swift movement and freedom.
God grants their request, and the mice are delighted with their newfound mobility, gliding effortlessly through the heavenly realm.
A Week Later
Curious about how the cat is faring, God checks in on him a week later. He finds the cat lounging contentedly on his pillow. When asked about his well-being, the cat responds with satisfaction, expressing his joy over the “Meals on Wheels” that have been arriving daily—referring humorously to the roller-skating mice.
