Does anyone have barn cats? I'm looking to get two to cut down on my mouse infestation. Do your cats mess with your chickens at all??

We have always had cats around when I've kept chickens - I have not lost a single bird (including chicks) to them. Cats may enjoy stalking them, but a swift peck from any bird they actually get close to is enough convince them to use them for stalking practice only. More often than not you see the chickens push the cats out of the food dish to get the cat kibble, chase the cats, etc. Just the other day they bullied one of our cats into giving up a mouse it had caught.
