Once upon a time in a small village there lived a miller who had three sons. When he died he left them his entire fortune. The eldest son received the mill, the middle son a donkey and the youngest son John inherited a cat. Young John was worried when he saw what small portion he had received in his father’s will. His brothers were now able to make a living, but what about him? What good could a cat prove to be?

“Do not worry,” said the cat. “Just give me a pair of good looking boots and you will see that I can bring you a fortune of your own,” he added, bowing low.

Bewildered, John started to laugh at the cat’s idea, however, he had nothing to lose. With the last pennies he had he bought a pair of knee-boots, a hat and a leather belt for the cat. He looked grand. John took him in his arms and went out into the world in search of work.
