Year of the Ox 2




Here's some description of the OX.  The Ox is the second animal in the Zodiac. Accordingly, the rat was a crafty animal, it piggy back the ox and when they were approaching the finish line, it leap across and beat the ox to it. But the ox being a patient animal did not seek revenge.

Legend also tells that the cat and rat were going together to this journey of life. The crafty rat knew that there were eleven animals before them. The cat took a cat nap asking the rat to wake them when they were setting out. The rat left the cat to snooze. When the cat woke up, everyone had gone. Since this day, the cat has been the enemy of the rat.
