<P> Right when the Emperor was going to close the race , an `` oink '' sound was heard : it was the Pig . `` Lazy little Pig '' originated from this story . The Pig felt hungry in the middle of the race , so it stopped , ate something and then fell asleep . After it awoke , it finished the race in twelfth place and became the last animal to arrive . The cat eventually drowned , and did not make it in the zodiac . It is said that this is the reason cats always hunt Rats . </P>
