Once there were two cats. They had been living together for many years. However, when it came to sharing food, they were inveterate rivals. Once they were prowling around a human settlement for food they found a big piece of discarded cake. No sooner had they seen the cake than they ran towards it to claim a bigger share. In the bid to secure the bigger chunk, they began fighting with each other. The cake lay untouched while they attacked each other with their sharp claws and paws.
A monkey sat on a tree watching all this drama. Hungry as he was, he scampered down the tree, came up to the cake, grabbed it, and ate it up! When the cats saw it, they stopped fighting! The monkey smiled at them and said, ‘If you don’t solve your differences amicably, others will definitely take advantage of your conflicts.’
The cats learned a lesson. They decided they would never fight with each other!
