Cat In Rat Hole

In the old house there once lived a fat cat From half a mile she could smell a wet rat She was too lazy to run Spent her time under the sun Lying on worn out black and white old mat. One day when she did not find her food bowl She was sure it was the sly rat that stole Her stomach started to burn She saw the rat on the run Chased it blind, her head got stuck in the hole.

I think there is a message here, like an Aesop fable.
