Dogs like me
We now have four cats, two indoors and two outdoor cats (brothers born in a friend's wood shed), two small dogs, and 7 chickens.
At first I was against outside cats, but they've won me over.
I cut a cat hole/door in a pole barn. Inside they have a 3 level enclosure, with a hammock, a heated house, and food/water.
They come and go as they please. I taught them to climb trees, since we live in the woods and have predators. And we go for cat walks, lol.
The main reason we got them was to control vermin near the chicken coop and compost heap. Mice, chipmonks, and gophers mostly, with an occasional mole or shrew.
Now they're supreme mousers, they mind better, and seem much more mentally adjusted than our inside whacos.
