Here's what the humans have to say about me:
If you have a barn or stable, you can save a cat and control your rodent population at the same time! Sometimes, cats cannot live as household companions, yet make excellent barn cats and thrive in that environment. These cats may be shy or fearful of people and prefer the company of other cats and animals. Generally speaking, barn cats placed through the Humane Society of Southern Wisconsin barn cat program are independent cats who prefer to limit their interactions with humans. However, the degree to which they keep their distance varies from cat to cat and may change over time. Barn cats often develop strong bonds with other cats, which is why the Humane Society of Southern Wisconsin recommends that two or more cats be placed together. We determine how much a cat likes human company by what we call a "feral score" that scales from one to five; one being friendly and five being very independent from people and not enjoying the company of human friends.
My feral score is 3
