The Veterinarian

One Sunday, while counting the money in the weekly offering the pastor of a small church found a pink envelope containing $1000.
It happened again the next week!
The following Sunday, he watched as the offering was collected & saw an elderly woman put the distinctive pink envelope on the plate. This went on
for weeks until the pastor, overcome by curiousness, approached her.
"Ma'am I couldn't help but notice that you put $1000. a week in the collection plate," he stated.
"Why, yes," she replied, "every week my son sends me money & I give some of it to the church."
The pastor replied, "That's wonderful. But $1000. is a lot; are you sure you can afford this? How much does he send you?"
The elderly woman answered, "$10,000. a week."
The pastor was amazed. "Oh my! Your son is very successful: what does he do for a living?"
"He's a veterinarian," she answered.
"That's an honorable profession, but I had no idea they made that much money," the pastor said. "Where does he practice?"
The woman answered proudly, "In Nevada. He told me that he has two
cat houses, one in Las Vegas, one in Reno."
