The Mice and The Clever Cat

Once upon a time, there were mice in a big house. They were so happy because they could get food easily. Their numbers were increasing. The mistress of the house did not like the mice. She wanted to get rid of the mice.

One day, she brought home a clever cat. The cat always guarded the pantry. She caught every mouse that came closer. No mouse had succeeded to enter the pantry. They never heard when the cat moved from its place until it was to late.

Their numbers kept decreasing. All mice started to worry and arranged a meeting to find a solution.“ The cat is very dangerous,” said the young mouse. “because she’s sly and sneaky. She tiptoes along on little padded paws. We never even hear her coming!” “The assembled mice nodded in agreement. “My suggestion is,” continued the young mouse. “that we tie a bell around the cat’s neck. That way we could hear whenever she tried to sneak up. We’d always have time to run and hide.”

All the mice burst into a big round of applause. This was a wonderful idea, it was generally agreed. But then and old mouse stood up slowly. He had to strain to be heard by all the mice. “The young mouse’s idea sounds good,” the old mouse said. “But now we have a new problem. Who will hang the bell on the cat?” Every mouse in the meeting was silent.
