English

A woman was frightened. "There's a jaguar in my house!" she told me.
"I wonder what the jaguar is doing there?" I said to her.
"I think he's hungry – he opened the refrigerator. I hope he doesn't eat Tomas!"
"Tomas is in the refrigerator??"
"No, he's in a big tub."
It turns out that Tomas was a big fish…
"Cats like to eat fish, you know," the woman said.
