Barncat ~ Muffy

Catching this glimpse of Muffy in the setting sun, caused a flow of memories…
She came to the farm in a group of strays that the kids picked up at the bottom of Rowlesburg hill.  (They were taken in by the old cat trick ‘put the cute little black kitten in the middle of the road, and when the people stop, we’ll all run out of the woods’.)  Muffy had a series of health setbacks… a warble in her neck… then a worm that attacked her spine.  She was on so much medication that it was months before her dilated pupils contracted.  She does not enjoy the company of cats, but she will bring her grown-up kittens ‘gifts’.  She thinks that Raven is her dog (much to Raven’s dismay).  She should probably be someone’s house cat, but through a twist of fate… circumstance… karma… destiny… she is our barn cat.  Our Muffy… she is a survivor.   



I Feel Pretty

Everyone wonders why it takes so long to do the morning chores.  Well it seems like there is always a helper… or two or three.  Sometimes it’s all a bit distracting… but hey… there are lessons to be learned here.  This weeks lesson – We all need to stop and enjoy those ‘I Feel Pretty’ moments.


What the Barncats Did…

The barncats have been enthusiastically doing their job ridding the barn and the surrounding area of any critter foolish bold enough to wander into their domain.  Once the weather turned cold, they began to take their job very seriously.  We won’t disgust bore you with the evidence of their conquests, but instead will show you how they occupy their time during warmer weather… what we like to refer to as “The Barncats Summer Vacation”.
