Why does the Vietnamese Zodiac have a Cat instead of a Rabbit?

In the Chinese Zodiac (ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_zodiac ) the Cat isn't in the zodiac because the mouse tricked it. (Also reference a Manga called Fruits Basket). Now my question is why the Vietnamese has a Kitty in it? Is there a story behind the Vietnamese Zodiac as well? The Chinese Zodiac has a story that is a race between the animals so... why did the Vietnamese Zodiac replace the rabbit with the cat? did the rabbit get tricked instead?|||Some of those animals were translated wrong, like one of them is a goat instead of...something else. I don't remember. But maybe the zodiac was done by a different translation, or maybe they just don't see the constellations the same way.





I mean, the pictures in the stars *are* a little blurry.|||Because cats taste more like chicken. And they also serve rats.It's only logical that they would be on the menu together.
