Our barn cats stay around the barn. The ones we’ve had who didn’t stay around the barn the coyotes get.
As to the cats that show up here as feral they just get shot. Period. The domestic types that come to the house *if* they are friendly we will put them out to the barn after a trip to the vet. If they hiss, bite, scratch, or etc. then we just put them down because there is no animal control unless we drive to SLC.
I’m not driving 250 miles for a cat because if I do then there’s children who don’t get taken care of, there’s chickens that don’t get fed, there’s cattle that don’t get taken care of, there’s a house that won’t magically clean itself and then I’m out gas money.
Bottom line, keep your cat on your property and off of mine and we’ll both be happy.
And if you want dibs on the snarling, nasty, mangy feral cats that show up here then pm me your address and I’ll be happy to send them all to you. Postage due.
