Currently there are only two cats at The Fat Ewe Farm. Of all the animals, cats, chickens and turkeys seem to be the least likeable by the farmer. It seems the dogs love the cats, but they treat them like rag doll toys, tossing them about in mid air, not to be mean, but to play. The dogs are all huge and the cats, well, they are tiny in comparison. Several cats have been rehomed in the past few months to provide them a harassment free environment. Barbie and Janie stayed. They bat the dogs, hiss at them and run like crazy, so they seem to be holding their own, not that they are not chased on occasion, especially by the puppies. The Maremma sisters are severely reprimanded for this behaviour, but when the pack leader is away, the pups will play.
They chased Janie and she was having none of it, so climbed the big elm tree, and climbed and climbed, until she was almost a speck in the great tree. The puppies looked up at her wagging their tails, waiting, for all of 2 minutes, then gave up and went to play elsewhere. Janie stayed in the tree until she was relaxed and came down for a bit of a pet and some loving. One thing for sure, she is not a good mouser so far, but she can climb a tree really well!
