Bootsy the lucky barn kitty! 10/05/2009
Barn cats, well, they are barn cats, they stay in the barn and they are supposed to keep the mice out of the grain bins! ![]() Bootsy the Cat Every cat has it's day? If you've lived on a farm you know what barn cats are, they are usually just on the edge of wild and seldom live long, they breed a bit too fast and they have a job. They're job is mousing! They are supposed to keep the mouse population down, so they don't eat and contaminate your grain. Every year we get a new batch of kitty's, seems there is always one who just won't settle for being an ol' barn cat and wants to be a house cat. We can't take 'em all in so we will try to adopt them out, or find them a home. This weekend a little orphan kitty, decided he was going to be a house cat. He followed us up from the barn and pestered us til we gave him some milk. That did it, now he's sure he's a house cat. Bootsy is really cute, he spent most of Sunday playing with a Pit Bull and sleeping. He is mostly black with four white socks, (boots). We can't keep the little fella, so if you're in the market for a kitten, let me know. This little guy really likes to snuggle. I kept him in bed with me last night and he just snuggled right up. |
