One of my cats lives under my house, or should I admit trailer, and protects the space under there. They do a good job of keeping the scorpians under control, so they're helpful. However, I should probably get a spinning wheel and start making cat yarn. LOL! They're good farm cats though, barn cats I guess.

Wow. I'm surprised that a cat hunts scorpions. Not surprised that he'd WANT to, but surprised he has not been stung and perished.

Oh no, the cats are fast enough and can see well enough in the dark that they are able to pin the tail of the scorpian down, then it's just land lobster to them. They seem to be born knowing what the stinger on the scorpian does, don't ask me how. I'm not sure they would die from a scorpian sting, but I'm sure it would put them in a bad moode, LOL!
