Barncat
This cat is very sweet and affectionate. She desperately wants to be loved, but hides a skittish fear that she might be hurt.

The Story of Barncat
Barncat is slowly eliminating her nine lives. She has climbed into the open door of many a ranch
guests vehicle to do some exploring. Someday, someone might accidentally drive off with her.
Recently, on an out of town ranch trip, she stowed away in the ranch horse trailer. Luckily
she was discovered at the fueling station and safely contained. No worse for the trip, she was
released back at the ranch.
As an outdoor only cat, Barncat would love to come inside the ranch house from time to time.
Unfortunately, a cat (Miss Bounce) that lives inside will not allow it. So she sleeps on hay
in the barn and on extremely cold nights, she gets to sleep inside the living quarters horse trailer.
Barncat was a starving stray that showed up on the doorstep of another family member and was
relocated to the ranch.
At the ranch, Barncat gets fed plenty of food, but still spends her days stalking the
local wildlife. Unfortunately, she is catching the young rabbits and chipmunks that
are also trying to make the ranch their home.
She wants to be friendly, but Barncat still has a fear of people. Too pet her is an honor. Usually,
she will roll on the ground to scratch her own back. She will occasionally approach ranch guests, but
if they reach to pet her, she runs just a few feet away and looks back suspiciously.
