"Honorable Profession" joke

Every Sunday at church, a little old lady placed $500 in the collection plate. This continued for weeks until the priest, overcome with curiousity, approached her. "I couldn't help but notice that you put $500 in the collection plate every week," he said.
"Why yes," she replied, "every week my son sends me money, and what I don't need I give to the church."
"That's wonderful," the priest replied. "How much does your son send you?"
"He sends me $1,500.00 every week," the old woman said.
"Your son seems to be very successful. What does he do for a living?" the priest asked.
"He's a veterinarian," the old woman proudly replied.
The impressed priest said, "That is a very honorable profession. Where does he practice?"
"Well, he tells me he has one cat house in Chicago, one in Miami and another in Dallas," explained the old woman.
