Punishment For Kicking The Cat
A family of three lived in a small farm: the parents and a kid.
One day dad went off to work and mom told the boy what his
chores were for that day: First feed the pigs, then put the
chickens back in the cage, and then let the cows out in the
field to graze.
The boy went out to feed the pigs. He was in a very bad mood for
having to do such stupid chores, but he didn't want to disobey
his mom so he fed the pigs like he should; but he hit them with
sticks and grumbled to himself. Next he went to put the chickens
in their cage; but while putting them into the cage he started
kicking and yelling at them. And last he went to let the cows
out in the field; since he was still in a bad mood he started
chasing the cows and yelling at them.
Mom saw all this happen and when the boy came back from his
chores she told him, "I saw the way you threw stuff at the pigs,
so for a week you don't get any bacon for breakfast. I also saw
the way you kicked and yelled at the chickens so for one week no
eggs or chicken. I also saw the way you chased the cows while
putting them out in the field, so no hamburgers for you for a
week."
Later that day, the dad came home from a terrible day at work.
As the dad walked up to the house he almost tripped over the
cat. "Damn cat!" So he kicked it really hard.
The boy turned to his mom and asked, "Should I tell him or
should you?"
