ARLINGTON â Just about every farmer has a few barn cats on their farm. Barn cats are even an integral part of the cycle of farm life as they eat mice and other rodents or small animals that live in or around the farm buildings and fields. Cats keep rodents from consuming or contaminating grain crops that are stored for human consumption.
A few cats on a working farm are an asset to any farm.
But when a farm has as many as 20, 40 or even 70 feral, barn cats, you have a serious problem.
