A little story (with Eadwine in mind).
A cat died and went to Heaven. God met her at the gates and said, "You have been a good cat all these years. Anything you want is yours for the asking."
The cat thought for a minute and then said, "All my life I lived on a farm and slept on hard wooden floors. I would like a real fluffy pillow to sleep on."
God said, "Say no more." Instantly the cat had a huge fluffy pillow. A few days later, six mice were killed in an accident and they all went to Heaven together. God met the mice at the gates with the same offer that was made to the cat.
"Well, we have had to run all of our lives: from cats, dogs, and even people with brooms!" said the mice. "If we could just have some little roller skates, we would not have to run again." "Done," said God. All the mice had beautiful little roller skates.
About a week later, God decided to check on the cat. She was lounging on her fluffy pillow. "Is everything okay? How have you been doing? Are you happy?"
"Oh, it is wonderful," said the cat. "I have never been so happy in my life. The pillow is so fluffy, and the Meals on Wheels was a nice touch."
Lucky cat!

And then the cat asked for the ability to push items off the edge of heaven: https://katraccoon.com/comics/behind-th ... at-lessons
