The Cats And The Monkey

 The Cats And The Monkey


Two cats once found a piece of bread. They both were very hungry. They were not willing to share the food with each other. They started fighting for the bread. One cat said, "I found it first it's mine." Another cat said, "No found it first, it's mine"


A monkey was seeing this from a distance. He wanted to eat the bread too. He thought of a plan to eat


it himself. He approached the cats and asked them why they were quarreling. The cats told him everything. He then offered to solve the matter. He said, I will divide the bread into two equal halves and give it to you."


Both the cats agreed to his proposal and gave him the bread. He cunningly divided the bread into two uneven pieces- one was bigger than the other. He then took a big bite from the bigger part. But this made the other part bigger than the other. He continued doing this until he ate the whole of the bread.


The two cats were too late to realize his cleverness. The monkey fied away after eating their bread right


in front of them. They now realized that had they shared the bread with each other, they would not


have been left hungry.


Moral: If two people fight, the third one takes an undue advantage.
