A long time ago in a large country-house far far away
Once, the Cat even pretended to be dead.
We can get him to do the same for us!”
The council of mice did not like this plan.
Another mouse proposed they all move.
The council did not like this plan either!!
Dr. Nibble-Cheese
"I venture, therefore, to propose that a small bell be procured, and attached by a ribbon around the neck of the Cat."
"By this means we should always know when the Cat was about, and could easily escape while the Cat was in the neighbourhood.”
The mice looked at each other and no one spoke.
“It is easy to propose impossible remedies."
It is one thing to say that something should be done, but quite a different matter to do it.
