The Foolish Cats

A cat found a piece of bread lying on the road. Another cat saw the same piece of bread, and the two began fighting. Then, the first cat suggested they break the bread into two halves. That's when a monkey arrived. The cats requested the monkey to divide the bread into two equal portions.

The monkey was cunning. It divided the bread into two portions and began verifying their sizes. One piece looked a little bigger, so it nibbled a part of it. Then the other one seemed bigger, so the monkey chewed a part of that. In this way, it kept alternately nibbling at the two portions until they were both gone, and the poor cats didn't get to eat anything.
