HAPPY NEW YEAR.... BROWN EARTH RATUS.

"Once the God of Heaven wanted to choose 12 animals as the sequence of the calendar. He announced to hold an animal race to determine the order. When the racing date is closing, Cat forgot the time and asked Rat the schedule. Alert Rat gave Cat the wrong time on purpose. Smart Rat stayed on the horn of Ox while crossing the river, then jumped over the bank to reach the final line to win as champion. Cat missed the racing time and swear to kill Rat for generations. That's why Cat always chase Rat forever."
