“Kill a cat to scare the monkeys”

This is a Chinese proverb. Don’t report me to animal cruelty!

Well, what this means is to sacrifice a pet or in this case, an innocent person so that the action will scare all the monkeys or the group. You see, when you have skinned a cat, it looks like a carcass of a monkey. Hang that carcass on a stake and all the monkeys in the jungle will be fearful.

In this case, we can use it as an example to treat those who bullied us. Say as a blogger, do you get people condemning you in your comment box? Well, don’t allow that. Make sure you slay one so that no others will dare to do it again. Usually, people will think twice before the commit the same thing.

Heh, now you know…kill a cat to scare the monkeys. A very useful guide for living a stressfree life.
