Guy tells his brother, "I have to go to out of town for a couple of weeks. I need to leave my cat with you. Please take real good care of her." His brother says, "Relax. I got this."
A few days later, he calls his brother and asks, "So, how's my cat?" His brother tells him, "The cat's dead."
"Geeeez" says the guy, "Why'd you have to be so blunt? Couldn't you have broken it to me a little more gently? Like, you could have told me the cat was on the roof, and you had to call the Fire Department. But just before they got there, she slipped and fell to the ground. So you scooped her up and rushed her to the vet. But there was nothing he could do to save her. Something like that would have been much more sensitive." His brother says, "Whatever."
So then the guy asks, "How's Mom?"
His brother thinks for a moment then says, "Uh... Mom's on the roof ..."
