On the farm lived a chicken and a horse, who loved to play together.
One day, the two were playing, when the horse fell into a bog and began
to sink.
Scared for his life, the horse whinnied for the chicken to go get the
farmer for help! Off the chicken ran, back to the farm. Arriving, he
searched and searched for the farmer, but to no avail, for he had gone
to town with the only tractor. Running around the chicken spied the
farmer's new FURR-ARI.
Finding the keys inside, the chicken sped off with a length of rope,
hoping he still had time to save his friend's life. Back at the bog,
the horse was surprised, but happy, to see the chicken arrive in the
shiny FURR-ARI, and managed to get a hold of the loop of rope the chicken
tossed to him. After tying the other end to the rear bumper of the
farmer's car, the chicken then drove slowly forward, and with the aid of
the powerful car, rescued the horse! Happy and proud, the chicken drove
the FURR-ARI back to the farmhouse, and the farmer was none the wiser when he
returned. The friendship between the two animals was cemented - best
buddies, best pals. A few weeks later, the chicken fell into a mud pit,
and soon, he too, began to sink and cried out to the horse to save his
life! The horse thought a moment, walked over, and straddled the large
puddle. Looking underneath,he told the chicken to "grab his thingie"
and he would then lift him out of the pit. The chicken got a good
grip, and the horse pulled him up and out,saving his life. The moral of
the story?
When you're hung like a horse, you don't need a FURR-ARI to pick up chicks |
