Two nights ago one of our barn cats left the property and didn't come home for 22 hours. Yesterday when she came home, she was really skittish and unlike herself. She's normallly really outgoing and playful, but she was timid and scared, and didn't want to be held. This is a quick update on Mona the next morning.

We live on a couple of acres in Midwest, USA, and our 4 cats keep the mice population under control. We bring them inside to go to bed as well as during cold or bad weather. We have been slowly introducing our dogs and they have all been getting along and making friends very well. They have been a hoot, and they really seem to enjoy having each other in their lives.

Introducing our cats:

Mona our dilute calico with short fur (gray, cream, white)
Toast our brown, black, and white cat with a small orange blaze down her forehead, she has longer and fluffier fur Shout out to Kelsie A for identifying Toast as our Alpha Kitty!
Pandora brown, black, and white, with a lot of white on her chest and belly, also with short fur
Cutie Pie;Lovely;Here We Go Bella gave her cat a first name, middle name, and last name. She has long fur with very distinct black, brown and white markings. She is the biggest of the 4 cats. Luckily for us, Bella no longer requests that we rotate the first, middle, and last names every day.

Welcome to the Red Barn Cavaliers family home! We invite the families and friends of our puppies 'into' our home to watch their puppy thrive and grow. You are viewing some of our current Cavalier puppies. We perform all of their care on the livestream for families to see and be part of, including vaccinations, weight checks, dewormings, socialization, and so more.

We raise Cavalier King Charles Spaniels with an emphasis on their emotionalsocial development. We have raised many puppies for the distinct purpose for becoming Emotional Support Animals. This breed of dog has a temperament that is ripe for therapeutic bonding. We nurture those characteristics to help bring them out and optimize them further.

We potty train our puppies using pine pellets designed for rehydration. Our puppies typically understand where to go potty within about a week of practice, and they use the potty tray on their own.. By about 67 weeks old, they begin waking during the night to use the potty tray.

Our young puppies are kept in our master bedroom for 24hour observation and care. We leave the audio on so that viewers are able to hear the puppies' vocalizations, but that means you may overhear some personal interactions. We prefer this format because we are able to easily provide context or clarity to viewers if necessary. We show you how we potty train our puppies beginning around 7 days old, plus how we nurture their development throughout their 8 weeks with us to hand off a welltrained puppy to their family.
