Evidently, the farm boy knows more about his barn cat than we thought! After breakfast, the little farm boy noticed the barn cat meowing at the back door. He went out, picked her up and said, “Yep…she had babies… somewhere… I bet they’re in the barn loft!” He put her down and he followed her to the barn.
A few moments later, he yells from the barn loft. “Yep…She has four babies…just born!”

So that means her fat belly wasn’t due to the fact she ate the rat!
