Sneaky starfish gets exactly what it deserves

Homeowners know that when you have put a lot of work and money into making a place feel like your own, the last thing you need is for a squatter to waltz in and take over. 

And, like with most of our day-to-day problems, nature presents a version of the same problem.

This is how a fish, who was busy cleaning out its cave, getting its house in order like any sensible homeowner would do, dealt with a sneaky starfish who wanted to come in and cause trouble. 

The starfish slowly slides closer and closer to the cave, making sure not to draw attention to himself. The fish continues to carry sand out of its cave and, as soon as its back is turned, the starfish creeps in closer and almost makes it into the fish's home. But it is as if the fish is used to the starfish's tricks because it quickly picks the starfish up in its mouth and tosses it out!

It gives a new meaning to the phrase "get out, before I throw you out". And what was the starfish thinking? That it could just walk into the fish's home and stay indefinitely? 

The fish is not prepared to hear any excuses from the squatter, which is exactly the kind of attitude that human homeowners should have towards uninvited guests. 

A home should be welcoming to all who enter it, but that does not mean visitors will be allowed to make their own rules.
