My friend went on a vacation for a week and asked me to take care of his place for him.
Everything was going fine, for the most part.
On the third morning he gave me a call and asked:
"So how is everything going?"
"The house is fine,"
I said,
"but your cat died."
"Wha . . .?"
click, he hung up on me.
Later that day my friend called back and said,
"Sorry I hung up on you. I was just so distraught.
It really ruined my day.
I wish you had given me the news a little more slowly.
"How's that?"
I asked.
"��Well, maybe you could have told me that my cat had climbed on the roof and wouldn'��t come down."
Then tomorrow you could have told me you were trying to get him down, but he wouldn'��t budge.
The next day you could have said he'��s not eating, then the following that he had died.
At least it wouldn't be so shocking.
"OK, sorry. Next time I'll know better."
He said,
"��It's OK, I know you didn'��t mean it."
"So how's my mom?"
"She's climbed on the roof and I can't get her down."

What scare tactices did you use too get her up there?

It was the mother-in-law. All he had to do was say to her, "Do NOT climb up on the roof."

So it is possible his mother-in-law was considering suicide due to her son-in-law, or her babysitter?whoa slaphead
