ADVISING A FOOL....MUST READ

On a building roof in "Katanlaga", there lived Rats( doe,buck and pups), the rats were extremely happy, just before the outset of the rainy season.

The rat decided to repair their home, it was made ravishing and more secure. " we should also provide some food for the pups" chirped one of the female rat(doe), they collected food from near by building until they had enough that might sustain them throughout the rainy season.

Soon the rains come, it was followed by lighting, thunder and heavy down pour. All animals and rat stay in their homes.

It continue raining for many days, one day a cat, wet in the rain came into the building roof, he was shivering with cold, water dripping from his body.

The poor cat tried his best to get a shelter, but was futile, the zinc of the roof were not enough to save him from rain. The zinc has been drilled by termite... meeu! It is so cold said the cat.

The rat were watching all this, they felt sorry for the cat, but there was little they could do for him. One of the pup voiced out" Our small house(s) are not enough to give you shelter".

Another rat said" All of us prepare for the rainy season", if you had, you would not be in this piteous and awful situation.

How dare you tell me what to do? Said the cat, growling at the rat. The cat angrily pounced on the rats house, destroy and demage it. The rat and her family were helpless.

The poor rat thought, " FOOLS NEVER VALUE GOOD ADVICE, IT IS BETTER NOT TO ADVISE THEM".
