Guard cat on duty

When Barney was dropped off here last Christmas she bonded with Wolf and his goat herd. Everyday she went out to the pasture and stayed with Wolf, then came back to the barn at night and they slept together. I thought Barney was a tom kitten, she had a big head, looking back that could have been from not having food. Alex made a pet of her and one day said Barney is getting fat. Then it dawned on me, I picked her up and I knew right away, she was going to have kittens soon. She had six kittens and is the best mother and a good barn cat. The kittens belong to the tom cat across the road that sneaks in to eat cat food from time to time and spray around my barn. I would love to keep the kittens ,since good mousers are needed here, but the price of having them all spayed and neutered is out of reach. I now have free roosters and free kittens.
