Well, two out of three isn’t bad. If you mess with the fish you will get wet; if you mess with the rat you will get bitten. But, like the song says:
. . . Oh I ate the parakeet
So no more will it go tweet
And I even ate the feet
(Crunch, crunch, crunch).
Quoted from memory—inaccurately, it turns out. But the cat probably doesn’t mind.
