Every Sunday, a little old lady placed $1,000 in the collection plate. This went on for several weeks until the pastor, overcome by curiosity, approached her one day.

"Ma'am, I couldn't help but notice that you put $1,000 a week in the collection plate," he stated.

Why yes," she replied, "every week my son sends me money, and since I don't need it all, I give $1000.00 to the church."

The pastor replied... "That's wonderful, how much does he send you?"

The old lady said.... "Oh, around $20,000 a week."

The pastor was amazed... "Your son is very successful, what does he do for a living?

He is a veterinarian," she answered.

That is a very honorable profession, "the pastor says. "Where does he practice?"

The old lady said proudly...."Well, he has two cat houses in Las Vegas and one in Reno."
