The Mice In Council
Aesop Fable: The Mice In Council
The mice summoned a council to decide how they might
best devise means of warning themselves of the approach
of their great enemy the Cat.
Among the many plans suggested,
the one that found most favor was the proposal to
tie a bell to the neck of the Cat, so that the Mice, being
warned by the sound of the tinkling, might run away and
hide themselves in their holes at his approach.
But when
the Mice further debated who among them should thus
"bell the Cat," there was no one found to do it.
