What is the story of Chinese Zodiac?

The legend is that, in ancient times, Z. Emperor ordered that the animals would become part of the calendar and those who would come before 12 o'clock would be selected.

At that time, the cat and mouse were good friends. When they heard the news, the cat said to the rat: "We should go fast, but I usually get up late."

The rat promised to wake his friend so that they could go together, but due to the enthusiasm he forgot and went alone.

On the way, the rat collided with tigers, bulls, horses and other animals, which were faster than them.

He made a plan. Assured to take the ox on his back - on condition that the rat would sing in the whole trip.

The bull arrived first but the mouse jumped in front of him and became the first lucky beast.

The selection was over by the time the cat came. This is the reason why the cat hates the mouse and always tries to kill it. In the order of its arrival all the animals were set.
