We have seven barn cats. All are fixed except two kittens...they are going to be very soon. We have four females and three males. All one big, furry, purring happy family - no one fights. We lock them in each night otherwise they'd be a snack for the three gigantic Great Horned Owls that haunt our property every night. Most of the cats are over 5 and close to 7 years old and going strong. Love them, they bring nothing but happiness to the farm.
