Cat, Rat and Ox

Long ago, the Jade Emperor held a great race. The Cat and Rat were good friends but couldn’t swim.
The Rat said, “Let’s ask the Ox for help!” The strong and kind Ox let them ride on his back.

As they crossed the river, the Cat fell asleep in the warm sun. The clever Rat wanted first place.
He quietly pushed the Cat into the cold water! The Cat fell far behind, splashing and crying.

Near the shore, the Rat jumped off the Ox’s head and ran to the bank first. The Jade Emperor said, “Rat is first! Faithful Ox is second!”

The wet, angry Cat arrived much later with no place in the zodiac. That’s why cats still chase rats today![web:12]
