A husband and wife were going out for the evening. They got ready, all dolled up, and put the cat outside.
The taxi arrives and, as the couple go out, the cat shoots back into the house. They don’t want the cat shut in the house all evening, so the wife goes out to the taxi while the husband goes upstairs to chase the cat out.
The wife, not wanting it known that the house will be empty, explains to the taxi driver, “He’s just going upstairs to say goodbye to my mother.”
A few minutes later, the husband gets into the cab. “Sorry I took so long,” he says. “Stupid old thing was hiding under the bed and I had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out!”
