Why are there no cats in the zodiac?

Do you know what you belong to? Why are there mice and no cats? Here is a story. A long time ago, one day, people said, "We want to choose twelve animals as the human zodiac, one animal a year." How many kinds of animals are there in the world? How to choose? Tell you what, set a date. On this day, when animals come to sign up, they will choose the first twelve animals as the zodiac.

Cats and mice are neighbors and good friends. They all want to sign up. The cat said, "we have to get up early to register, but I like to sleep late." What should I do? " The mouse said, "Don't worry, don't worry. You can sleep deeply. I'll call you as soon as I wake up. Let's go together. " The cat was very happy and said, "You are really my good friend, thank you."

By the morning of registration, the mouse was awake, but it only thought about its own business and forgot its good friend's cat. I signed up myself.

As a result, I chose the mouse. Where is the cat? The cat got up too late because it went to bed late. When it arrived, twelve animals had been selected.

If the cat is not selected, it will be angry with the mouse, blaming the mouse for not calling it. Since then, cats will eat mice when they see them, and the mice have to run away desperately. It's still like this.

The order of the zodiac is: rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, chicken, dog and pig. How to make the mouse rank first? Here's another story.

On the day of registration, the mouse got up early and the cow got up early. They met on the road. Cows take big strides, mice take small steps. The mouse was out of breath and barely kept up with the cow. The mouse thought, the road is still far, and I can't run fast. what can I do?

He used his head and came up with an idea. He said to the cow, "Niu Ge, let me sing you a song." The cow said, "OK, you sing-hey, why don't you sing?" The mouse said, "I am singing." Why didn't you hear me? " Oh, my voice was too low for you to hear. Tell you what, let me ride around your neck and sing, and you will hear me. "The cow said," good, good! "The mouse climbed up the cow's neck along the cow's leg, so the cow was comfortable carrying it.

It shook its head and really sang: Niu Ge, Niu Ge, cross the river, climb the hillside, drive, drive, hurry up!

Niu Yi was very happy to hear that. He spread his legs and ran as fast as he could. He ran to the registration place and saw that no one had come. He wept with joy: "I am the first, I am the first!" " Before the cow finished speaking, the mouse jumped down from the cow's neck, jumped to the ground and squeaked in front of the cow.

As a result, the mouse won the first place and the cow won the second place. So in the zodiac, the little mouse ranks first.
