A
Mouse, tired of living in constant fear, said to her neighbour, “I read about a
place called Indies where Mice are safer. The people there believe that the
soul of a Mouse has been in the body of a great person. After the Mouse dies,
it will re-enter the body of another great person. That’s why Mice are treated
affectionately there. Even hospitals are built for them. Let us go to this
country and live happily.”
The
neighbour replied, “Don’t Cats enter these hospitals? If they do, then the Mice
would be dying, quickly and in great numbers.”
“Fear
not,” said the first Mouse. “The Cats have their houses and hospitals far away
from ours.”
The
Mice then crept into a ship, which was set to sail. After a long journey, they
reached Indies.
There,
the Mice entered a house, expecting a warm welcome. However, the Indian Mice
fought with the newly arrived Mice. Instead of being eaten up by Cats, they
were killed by their own kind.
Be wise and stay away from danger.
