Working Cats
A working cat is a shelter-adopted feline that thrives in outdoor settings like barns or warehouses, providing pest control and companionship rather than living as a traditional house pet.

WHAT THEY DO:
They are effective at catching and controlling rodents, insects, and other pests.

Using working cats for pest control is an alternative to using toxic pesticides, which can harm wildlife and the ecosystem.

Barns: A common setting for working cats, offering shelter and a natural environment for hunting.
Warehouses: They can control pests in large, open spaces.
Farms: Working cats can help protect crops and livestock from pests.
