"Checking On His Cat" joke

When Jack went away on a week's vacation, he had his brother Tom take care of his cat. A few days before coming home, Jack phoned Tom to see how his cat was doing.
"Your cat's dead," said Tom, nonchalantly.
"Dead? What do you mean dead?" shrieked Jack. "Did you have to tell me like that? Couldn't you have broken the news to me a little more gently?"
"Well, how did you want me to tell you?" Tom asked.
"When I called today, you could have told me she was up on the roof and wouldn't come down," Jack said. "Then, when I called you tomorrow, you could have told me that you climbed up the ladder to get her, but she fell out of your arms and broke her back. Then, when I called you the following day, you could have told me that the vet did all he could to save her, but she passed away."
"You're right," Tom said, apologetically. "That was very insensitive of me. I'm sorry."
"Apology accepted," Jack replied. "By the way, how's mom?"
"She's up on the roof and won't come down," replied Tom.
