Answer:
the cats and a monkey
It was the aftermath of a big festival. Two cats were prowling together. One of the cats saw a big cake and missed. The other jumped up and picked it.
The first cat said, “Give me the cake. It is I who saw it first.”
The other cat said “Keep away from it. It is I who picked it up.”
They were fighting and fighting. But there was no solution. Just then, a monkey passed by. He thought “What foolish cats they must be! Let me make use of this chance.”
He came to the cats and said in a loud voice. “Don’t fight. Let me share the cake with you both”. The cake was handed over to the monkey.
The monkey split the cake into tow parts. He shook his head and said, “Oho! One is bigger. One is smaller”. He had a bit of the bigger and now said “Oho! This has become smaller now”. He ate from the other. And thus, he went on eating from part to part and finally finished the whole cake.
The poor cats were disappointed.
Moral: When you quarrel someone else gains.

Once,there lived two cats , they always used to quarrel with each other. One day they both found a piece of bread and they started to fight . One said 'I will eat it ''other one said ''No I will eat this bread I am hungry '' like this the fight goes so deeper that they wanted to kill each Other. A monkey who was very clever was watching this , he wanted to eat that piece of bread he went down from the tree , he said '' why are you fighting with each other, I will make the perfect halves for you''. the monkey started to bit the bread and he knowingly bit the secend one a bit larger.to again in effort of making the half the monkey bit the other half larger.This went on and on at last the monkey ate up all the bread.Before the cats could knew it ran away.After that they knewed what the monkey did.they realised that if we fight for something the third one takes the privillage of it .
