The Cat & The Fox - Aesop Fables




On one sunny and warm day, a cat and a fox were sitting under a big tree, talking to each other. Randomly, they started discussing how they would escape a pack of dogs.

The fox was very boastful. So he proudly said, “ I know a lot of ways to save myself from dogs, i can run into the forest , or hide behind some bushes or trunks or i can just hide inside a burrow.”

“Good for you”, the cad said innocently, “ I know just one way and that is to climb on a tree.”

“Just one way?” said the surprised fox, “ you wont be able to save yourself with just one way.”

Just as they were talking about this, a pack of dogs attacked them. The cat quickly climbed up the tree whereas the fox ran here and there, tried to find a burrow, and tried hard to escape. But finally the dogs caught him. The cat on the other hand remained safely on the tree.

MORAL : Instead of being the jack of all trades, its better to be a master of one.
