I personally love dark meat, turkey or chicken .... if I had cats, we’d be fighting over the dark meat (just kidding).
I’ve had cats in the past & just love them ... I’ve been blessed with really “good” affectionate cats. All were ‘rescues’. My folks won’t allow animals in the house, so no kitties now, unfortunately.
My niece moved to a farm (had a house built, she/hubby built a huge barn) this spring. They have an elderly cat, Boots. Her two young girls 4 & 6 love cats - Boots is tolerant, sort of. Anyway, a friend of hers is a local vet & they take in stray/abandoned kittens/cats & have a cat adoption thing going - only to people who will keep them inside. My niece asked if they’d make an exception for her ... the cats will have a great home in the barn and she could take two cats off their hands. For some reason, black & black/white cats aren’t popular adoptees and they let her adopt two ... Bernie & Wallie. Both are very affectionate - one likes being carried around, the other not so much but is a lap sitter & champion purr box. One of them caught a mouse in the barn the other day - made my niece VERY happy. The cats follow the great-nieces around while they’re doing their chores & keep them company. Those cats are living a good life & my little great-nieces love them so much :-)
Your niece’s farm sounds awesome!
I’m still in the planning stages of putting a house on my farm. I started saving up for my own place when I was about 9, so your niece is living my dream :)
