The Man at the Door With a Bloodied Towel

A woman answered the doorbell and a man was standing there with something wrapped in a bloodied towel.

The man said, “I’m terribly sorry. I just ran over your cat.”

The woman burst into tears.

The man tried to comfort her by saying, “I’d like to replace it.”

The woman wiped her eyes and said, “Really? How are you at catching mice?”

Heckle this joke

Got a better punchline or a worse take? Drop a one-liner.

Nobody has heckled this yet. Suspicious restraint.
