Jinba the little mouse lived a free life. One day, Jinba was worried that it might be eaten by a cat and asked the fairy grandpa to change it into a cat. Jinba as a cat was bitten by a dog and it cried to find the fairy grandpa, who changed it into a dog. However, a few days later, Jinba was beaten by the owner with a stick since it didnt watch the door. This time, Jinba asked the fairy grandpa to change it into a pig because it thought being a pig was happy and it can only sleep and eat all day. But the good times didnt last long. One day, the owner pointed at Jinba as a pig and said: ""Its too fat and we can kill it tomorrow."" Jinba was frightened and fell from the bed, only to find that it was just a dream.
