Dead Goldfish

Little Tim was in the garden filling in a hole when his neighbor peered over the fence Interested in what the cheeky-faced youngster was up to he politely asked,``What are you up to there, Tim?''

``My goldfish died,'' replied Tim tearfully, without looking up,''and I've just buried him''

The neighbor was concerned,``That's an awfully big hole for a goldfish isn't it?'' Tim patted down the last heap of earth then replied,``That's because he's inside your cat''
