Farmer.—I have a cat. He is very wild so I will take him to the forest. (Puts cat in bag and takes him to tree.) I will leave him here. (Takes off bag and leaves the cat.)

Cat. I will build a house for myself and be the owner of this forest. (Brings in box and nails boards.) Now my house is done.

Enter the Fox

Fox. Good morning. What fine fur you have! What long whiskers you have! Who are you?

Cat. I am Ivan, the owner of this forest.

Fox. May I be your servant?

Cat. Yes; you may. Come into my house. (Both go in house.) I am hungry. Go out and get me something to eat.

Fox. I will go. (Goes into forest and meets Wolf.)

Wolf. Good morning.

Fox. Good morning.
