The Cat and the shadow

The cat 🐈 and The Shadow:

A cat stole a piece of fish from a kitchen. It began to run very fast. It came to a stream. The stream was bridged by a plank. As he walked across the plank, he saw a very strange sight.

The water in the stream was clear and quiet. It saw another cat with another fish in its mouth in the water.

“Ho!..." said the cat.

“What is this? Another cat with a piece of fish down in the water? With a much bigger piece than mine! I will take it from the cat."

But the cat did not realize that it was a reflection of another cat.

He opened its mouth to catch the piece of fish from the cat in the water.

Alas! Down fell his dinner with a loud splash…The gentle waving movement of the water cleared. The cat was staring up out of the water with empty jaws.

It was his shadow that he saw all the time and the shadow of his piece of fish 🐟  too.
