About Gold Shaw Farm: Gold Shaw Farm is more of a farm-in-progress than an honest-to-goodness farm. Our dream is that someday we are able to transform our 150+ acre parcel of land into a regenerative and productive homestead and farm.

Those cats are treasure. A female mouse is only pregnant for 19 days and can have 10 liters a year. Don't cry for the mice, people. There's always a few that make it. Plus mice are incontinent. They pee and poop everywhere they run. Great video and it really shows the value of cats on a farm.

Indeed! The speed they can breed when there is food around is just incredible, the 'plague mice' scenes in Australia this year were just insane!! 😳 City folks don't grasp just how much money farmers can lose to mice and rats that spoil and steal feed. Also, the cat here will have wee bit help from the chickens... Most townies don't know that chickens will happily kill and eat anything they can fit down their throats, they love a nice fresh mouse!

As someone who owns snakes and feeds them live/frozen, this is very much true. Mice make so many babies BECAUSE the babies are prey; very few make it to adulthood. But those that do also breed so one mouse can become dozens VERY quickly. Plus mice will eat everything and poop everywhere, it prevents a lot of diseases and illnesses. These are damn good barn mice doing their jobs. Mice are respectful as pets and also as food. Circle of life goes both ways.

Morgan - Something to be aware of as my uncle had a farm with many cats on it. In the winter time especially when you drive in with your car, the engine is warm so the cats would want to crawl up next to it. The problem develops that when you go in to start it, it cause them to jump and if they jump the wrong way they go right into the fan which is no good. He got into the habit of when he approached his car he would smack the hood to make a loud sound to get any cats out. Just somethig to think about as you move into winter.

Fun fact: Even they kill rodents like mice and eat them it is often not enough for them to stay healthy. So it is important to feed outdoor and barn cats too. Don't forget that this cats are still domestic cats. It is hard for a cat to only live from what they catch so I'm really glad that people still feed them even they could catch something to eat. I read somewhere that a cat who gets feed by the owner even hunts more because they have more energy to do that. Hunting takes a lot of energy and a lot of hunting is no success. So a cat with more energy has more to spent on hunting because it is not a way to only survive.

Dogs are pretty amazing at empathising with others, be it people, cattle or even fowl. Especially herding dogs and livestock guardian dogs. They recognise universal signs of fear/tension and from them know how far can they go without spooking the animal. Although that doesn't work well with cats, as their communication protocols are wildly different and a lot of misunderstandings happen before the two learn each other's ways.

Having been around barn cats I think Mollie's behaviour to Gini kitty is one of two things. One, she is forcing her to not rely on Mom to be there to protect her. Two It can take months and months for the hormones to be out of her system after being spayed, she may think she is in heat and ready to have more kittens, so she is pushing her away for that reason ( baby kitten protection mode)

Yup to both of those. I've witnessed more mama-adult kitten encounters in my life than I can count and the mother enacts a separation or barrier between herself and her spawn as they become older, especially if they are the same sex. It's difficult for us to understand, but due to their primal nature, this is a protection mechanism of the "pride". They may become friends down the road, but this is a transition time right now for them both.

Yes, it is normal behaviour that I have seen in city cats also. Sometime it is much more violent. In the "wild", the teenage cat can be pushed to go find another clowder (group of cats). Since Molly doesn't seem to be very aggressive, Gini does not reciprocate and they have a big territory, it should not be a problem. My guess is that Molly will calm down during winter.

Female cats are more likely to catch and not eat their prey: It's an instinctive; they have to catch prey for kittens. Boys might also start bringing what they catch to a kitten living near them (or their favorite human or a dog (or a horse!)). The act of giving food is very important to cats: That's why they always hang around and ask for food, even if they don't eat it. Giving food is the easiest way to prove to a cat that you care. Also, (most?) mother cats start to harass their kittens after they reach a certain age: Mother's instinct is to get ready for new kittens. They don't have time to do that if the old ones aren't independent, so they start to harass them to make them start catching prey and look for a territory of their own. Molly is looking at Ginny and sees Ginny is ready to live on her own. It may take some time before Molly realizes she isn't getting new kittens, and doesn't need to drive away Ginny. I adore Pablo, and feel sorry for him not being allowed to share food with Toby. But in a year, Pablo is entering senior age, and it slows his metabolism. He is going to need senior food that spares his kidneys.❤

A story my dad always tells is one where their cat named Smudge once snuck INTO my dad’s truck (which was always packed with boxes and work stuff as he is a cell technician). He got up for work, started driving, and heard meowing, looked back and saw Smudge. He had to drive back home to bring the cat back, but it made for a pretty cute and funny story to tell.

Simple enough to feed Molly and Gin-gin separately. Will avoid squabbles until Molly gets used to her daughter again. Which I'm sure will happen.... Congrats on starting to get the cattle settled in. The night footage is way cool, seeing cats do what cats do at night.

You should get a float value for your 50-gallon tank. It's practically essential for the hydration of cattle. All it does is fill a tank until it reached a certain height, so it will ensure your cattle will always have water.

I think one of the reasons why Molly is being mean to Ginny Is one- she smells different You get weird smells from the vet after surgery And two, a mom animal (dogs do this too) basically tell their child that I don't feed you anymore, you're on your own I'm not going to be nice mommy anymore But those are my thoughts But definitely get another cat bowl Feeding in the same bowl will cause fights instead of separate Since Molly wants her own food Plus Gonny is just wanting to take all the cat food as quickly as she can before anyone else can have it

For what it's worth, mother cats don't keep their motherly feelings for their young once they're adults, so she won't be motherly with Ginny again. Also, female cats are generally quite defiant of other cats and get quite territorial, more so than fixed males in my experience. This also makes them more anxious and threatened if other cats get too close... I think they need each their own bowl to eat like Pablo has, at the very least.

So proud to see Ginny's first kill ☠ ! Someone's probably mentioned this, but Molly's hostility after Ginny's vet stay is normal. It will probably work itself out. Also be aware, mama cats often don't stay lovey dovey with their female offspring once they become teenagers. Just a sad fact of cat life. I'm glad Ginny's found a friend in Pablo though. He's such a sweet soul 🧡 As for the cattle, I think you're onto a winner with the "blue bucket" approach! Having their treats down by the poultry area may help create a positive association with the birds. The fact they're coming down to the lower pasture when the birds are asleep is a very good sign!

Hi Morgan,,,Ten yrs ago I took in two 6month old sisters, before they were one yr old they both had a litter 2wks apart & were best of friends, even nursed each others kittens. 5 months after they had kittens I had them spayed. In the morning of their operation they were curled up with each other & the kittens in one big pile like every other day. At the end of the day I picked them up & brought them home. When I opened the two cages & let them out they took one look at each other & hissed. Ten yrs later they still hate each other, one lives in the house & one in the shop. Getting them spayed completly changed their personalities.
