A rich businessman goes on holiday. While he's away the butler sends him a message saying "Cat's dead". Distraught at the death of his beloved pet the man returns home and berates the butler for being so callous. "You should break bad news gently," says the businessman. "If I'd been telling you that your cat was dead I'd have written, "The cat's on the roof and can't get down." A few hours later I'd have written, "The cat's fallen off the roof and is badly hurt. A while later I would have sent another message saying, The cat has sadly passed away."
"Very good, sir," says the butler, "I'll remember that in future."
The businessman resumes his trip, books into his hotel, and finds that the butler has left another message, it says, "Your mother is on the roof and can't get down."

What a Cat-astrophe!!
Did you hear about the man who was driving along the road when a cat darted out in front of his car. Unable to stop in time,he ran over the cat and killed it.Feeling terribly guilty,he picked up the body and took it to the cat's owner-a little white haired old lady.
"I'm really sorry," he said,"but I'm afraid I've run over your cat.I'd like to replace it."
"Sure," said the old lady."How are you at catching mice?"
