Here is Tinker and her sister Pugsley- although I would say more of house cats than barn cats now- but they do manage to keep the mice population still down in the barn by the occasional jont through it.I think they are about 4-5 years old, and they are worth the weight in gold.

Great post Sandy.... Your cats are so pretty!

Here are some of our barn cats.... They always present me with the best Photo opportunitys....

This is Milo.... I swear he thinks he is human. He loves sleeping in the bird bath.

My mom can't figure out why her garden is always in shambles....

and my little tiger kitty, Max. He was hit by a car last summer, and luckily survived. He has a noticable gimp, but he has not let that get in his way. I snapped this picture while he was sleeping under our trailer. He managed to contort himself to fit under our wheel track.

Jag on foal watch.

Jag doing what Jag likes to do....roll in the dirt.

We also have his full brother (orange/white tabby) Oliver, that insists on jumping on my shoulders every morning while I feed. I need to get a picture of that.

This is Felix. He was born at some point in time in our big horse barn. We think Momma was moving the litter and was killed by our neighbors dogs. He only put the dogs out that night at our request as we were having problems with feral hogs. We only knew of Felix's existence when we heard his cries and pulled back a section of wall and found his tiny emaciated, dehydrated scruffy little self. He was so tiny.

He now lives between our two barns and our lanai. He has been neutered. Hubby didn't want me to feed him because he thought he'd be a better mouser if we didn't. But Little Dude's bowl is never empty and he's still a good mouser. Actually he kills everything he finds.

This is Spikey Doo , he was a manx also. We just lost him 2 weeks ago. We miss him so.

Sandy your Cassie looks like my Spike!

This is Purdy aka Pooey Dooey, she is my heart and Spikey's sister.

We found them in a woodpile in the middle of nowhere in 1995.

Cute cats everyone!

These are our "barn" cats, Sam and Libby. They are brother and sister, we got them on the 4th of July a few years ago, so their full names are Uncle Sam and Lady Liberty. They are the coolest cats! They were supposed to be barn cats, but right after we got them, Sam was stepped on by my Anglo-Arab filly and broke his leg. He ended up having surgery and a pin put in it (pretty expensive for a free barn kitty!). He had to stay in the house while he was recouping, and his sister did not like being locked in the tack room by herself. She learned how to go into the loft and slide down the bars of one of the stalls. We eventually got sick of taking her back to the barn five times a night, so now they both come into the garage at night, and lounge in the house when they need a break during the day.

This is Sam, he enjoys belly rubs and foot massages, and has no idea that he isn't a dog.

And this is Libby. Her favorite pastime is laying down on the track of my circle when I'm riding.

Both throughly enjoy that giant litter box we built for them last year.

I tried to post individual photos but kept getting an "extension not allowed" message

So here are all the photos

Fuzzy (tortie calico)

More of a porch cat than barn cat. She belonged to the neighbors but after her second litter we took her in, spayed her and she stayed

Flash ( yellow tabby)

Our almost 14 yr old house cat who was born in a friends barn. Mom was either killed or scared off when they were about 4 weeks old. We almost lost him last summer but a week of daily IV fluids and meds pulled him through. He is now totally deaf so going outside is out of the question. ( he used to love to sit out on the porch with us)

Trouble (black)

An indoor/ outdoor cat. We lost him this past year at age 14. As much as he lived up to his name I still miss him terribly.

Neat post! There are some beautiful cats on here!

We have three barn cats that think they own the barn.

Tori

Sophie

I was reading this topic when I realized that I don't have any pictures of my barn cat! So, I went out to take pictures of her. She didn't cooperate! She would either chase something in the barn or she would walk towards me and rub on me every time I got down to take her picture! So, here are a couple of not so great pictures of Katie, my awesome barn cat.

Here is a some of our cats.

Brooke this little one follows me ever where.

Toad

Benny the chuncky monkey.

Frog

Gymn the best mouser we have ever owned.

Mouse the youngest, and the most bossy.

Sorry about all the pictures we have alot of cats. People like to abondon

kittens out in our area and we seem to take them all in.

 

[Miniequine]

Mouse the youngest, and the most bossy.

all of them are beautiful

OMG... the eyes on that kitty!!!

 

[HGFarm]

OMG, I LOVE the pics from you all. Miniequine you have the CUTEST pics- many of these belong on a CALENDAR I swear!!!!

And I spotted the Manx in a heartbeat- I have had Manx since 1974, and breed a couple of litters each year. I will post some of mine here....

Here is Rocky- the barnyard kitty.. He is about 7 months old now.

Rocky's Dad, Bullwinkle, who probably weighs close to 18 pounds, he is HUGE like his grandpa was

Here is Bullwinkle's grandma Thelma Lou. I've had her since she was 7 weeks old and she is going to be 14 in the spring. She sleeps with me every night and is a love bug, good hunter and she mothers EVERYBODY'S kittens.

I have to also add Mocha Latte and her two daughters Pumpkin Spice Latte and Tangerine. Mocha is really strange colored- she is actually CHOCOLATE, PEACH and WHITE- not black or blue- we have NO idea where the coloration comes from and she has not produced ANY more like her!!

Pumpkin...

Tangerine

And there is Wuz. Wuz was an accidental breeding to a cat that has since retired- a half sister to Bullwinkle. Wuz's mother is white with odd eyes, from an orange tabby male and her mother was white with green eye and her mother is Thelma Lou, above. Wuz's father is jet black and white from another jet black and white and out of a blue female as the grandma, whose father was jet black. So no cats this color in three generations, and almost all of them have white markings of some sort, so from a white female and black and white male, I was shocked to get this..... And yes, his expression says it all- he thinks he is very suave and would not think of wasting one crumb of energy on catching a mouse or bug or anything. He would expect it to be served in a silver bowl and then he would probably turn his nose up at it, LOL

Here is Wuz's mama

One of Wuz's grandfathers- Flash. Look Ma, no tail!! This is his dad's dad.

Ok, enough from me... I could go on all day with pics of cats!!! LOL
