English Original
A cat, hearing that the birds in a certain aviary were ailing, dressed himself up as a physician. Taking his cane and a bag of instruments befitting his profession, he went to call on them. He knocked at the door and inquired of the inmates how they were, saying that if they were ill, he would be happy to prescribe for them and cure them. They replied, "We are all very well, and shall continue so, if you will only be good enough to go away, and leave us as we are."

一只猫听说某个鸟舍里的鸟儿们生病了,便把自己装扮成一名医生。他拿着手杖和一袋符合他职业的工具,前去拜访它们。他敲了敲门,询问里面的鸟儿们身体如何,并说如果它们生病了,他很乐意为它们开处方并治好它们。鸟儿们回答说:“我们都很好,而且会一直很好,只要你肯行行好离开,让我们保持现状。”
