"The Cat and the Birds"
Acat
once overheard that some birds in a nearby aviary were ill. Seeing an
opportunity he grabbed a satchel and then packed it full of instruments which a
doctor might use. The he dressed himself in a white physicians coat
and set off straight away for the aviary.
Upon arriving at the aviary he asked the
occupants if there was anything that he could do to make them feel better.
"Yes," the birds replied through the
cage, "Once you leave we will be in a much better mood."
"A villain in disguise will never fool
the wise."
