The boys

Living on a farmlet You have to deal with lots of vermin 

In previous years we used to have farm cats 

Three at one stage and I didn’t have to worry about mice and rats and rabbits digging up my gardens 

Then I had indoor only cats 

Sounds nice. But outside OMG 

WE HAVE HAD RATS

Now the rabbits and mice were a massive pain 

But when I saw the rats. As big as the rabbits I said. Enough!

Enter these two cuties 

They will be my outside, living in the back with the dogs, or in the big shed 

Where ever they like 

Meet Sam and Dean hunters of vermin 

Here they are on th first day. I got them a week ago 

Sam is the grey fluffy one and dean is the black and white 

If you have ever seen supernatural the series you will know how they got their names 

They have spent their time between here, 

My bedroom and bathroom 

And the last few days, as it’s been so hot, in the spare room 

But they love it here! 

They also have bonded with the dogs and as you can see Teddy won’t leave them at all! 

I’ll slowly let them out to play with the dogs under supervision and then lock them back up 

Until they are a few months older 

I wasn’t going to blog about them. I’m nervous of all the back lash of having cats outside 

But if you have ever lived on acreage you  would know just big the problem is 

So there you are 

These two will have to take over from Buffy the rabbit slayer 

She has some mighty big paws to fill 

But having seen how they stalked my chickens I’m sure they will be fine 

My chickens will peck them while they are small and this seems to teach them not to mess with birds 

Buffy never brought home a dead bird 

So this is a good thing 

How bad is the vermin plague at your place? 

See ya xx
