Jerry was a gray and white cat. He was fed twice a day and liked to do pleasant things. The thing he liked most was chasing his tail. He came close to catching it, but it was always just out of reach.
One day, a kitten named Molly came to live at Jerry’s home. Molly was friendly. She enjoyed watching Jerry chase his tail.
“You will never catch it,” said Molly. Her words made Jerry really want to catch it. One morning, Jerry caught it! He decided he would never let it go.
Molly laughed and went to lick Jerry’s ears. It tickled. He wanted her to stop, but he could not speak. He had to put up with it.
Then, the cats heard food being poured. Molly ran to her bowl. Jerry tried to run but kept falling down.
“You cannot eat with your tail in your mouth,” said Molly. “I will eat your food.”
“No!” said Jerry. His tail popped out of his mouth. He ate his food quickly.
After that, Jerry still liked to chase his tail. If he did catch it, he held it for a second. Then he set it free so that he could chase it again.
