Cinderella is now 75 years old. After a fulfilling life with the now dead Prince, she happily sits upon her rocking chair, watching the world go by from her front porch, with a cat named Bob.
One sunny afternoon, from out of nowhere, appeared the Fairy Godmother. Cinderella said, "After all these years, Fairy Godmother, what brings you here, now?"
FGM replied, "Cinderella, you've lived an exemplary life, since I last saw you, so I'm here to grant you 3 wishes."
Cinderella didn't need to think twice, "Okay, FGM, gimme' wealth beyond comprehension, youth once again, and finally, companionship."
FGM said, "Done! You do realize, however, I can't just conjure up a person out of the blue. I have to transform a creature. You know, objects for objects, life for life. Where on earth will we find someone to turn into your companion?"
Cindy replied "How about Bob, my faithful cat of 15 years"
FGM said, "He'd be 105 years old..."
Cindy said "Make him young".
FGM said, "Technically, that's two wishes, but for you, we'll make it as one."
"Great!" Cinderella replied.
Magically, Bob the cat transformed into a handsome young man. As she made her exit, the Fairy Godmother said, "Goodbye Cinderella. Enjoy your new life."
So, there they sat, arm in arm, gazing into one another's eyes. At this point, Bob, the former cat said, "Boy, I bet you wish you hadn't had me neutered now, don't you?!"
