Why did the cat not race in the Chinese zodiac?
The cat did not race in the Chinese zodiac because of a legend that suggests it was tricked by the rat. According to the story, the Jade Emperor organized a race to determine the order of the zodiac signs, and the rat promised to help the cat cross a river but instead pushed it aside to secure its own victory. As a result, the cat was left out of the zodiac entirely, leading to its absence from the twelve animal signs. This tale highlights themes of deception and rivalry in the zodiac's origins.
