The owner of the house brought a cat to drive them away. The mice fell in great problem. So they could not move about freely. At last they hit upon a plan to get rid of the cat and held a meeting. The speakers discussed the problem of the cat and made different proposals but none of the proposals was good enough to accept. Then the meeting was about to finish but they could not find out any solution of the problem. Suddenly a young mouse stood up and said, “Let us tie a bell round the cat’s need. Then we will be able to hear him coming and save ourselves in time.”

No doubt, the idea is good but who is going to bell the cat?”  But nobody came forward to do this difficult task. At last the meeting came to an end and the mice felt helpless.
