A woman takes her pet parrot to the Vet. The vet listens with his stethoscope and finally declares that the bird is dead.
The woman acts indignant and asks if that is all he can do for her in his clinic?
The vet thinks a moment, then goes and gets a black lab dog and allows the dog to sniff the dead bird. He then leaves and returns with a cat who also sniffs the dead bird. After he returns the cat to the back room, he returns and again declares the parrot dead.
When presenting his bill…it was for $120. The woman protested why it was so much just to tell her that her parrot was dead. The vet responded. “Mam, if you would have believed me the first time, it would have been $20. But when you insisted on a Cat Scan and a Lab report, that increased the charges.

Thanks for starting my day off with a smile! 🙂
Humor and shock. The expectation was that the parrot had to get raised from the dead or something “spiritual”. The Cat scan and a Lab Report is funny. I recognize the human mind/personal sense tendency to look for some deeper meaning in everything, rather than once in a while just having a little pun. 🙂
“Oh no, death not addressed…” Well, Mrs. Eddy certainly didn’t teach that bodies live forever. I like the pun, even if I did wince at the dead parrot.
hahahahaha
