Sparks are flying between our new working Border Collie June and our farm cat Luna👀

- We’ve heard of herding cats but this is next level😂. June our new 6 month old working border collie has a very high driver herding instinct and apparently that extends to herding cats. Our farm cat, Luna Cat is known for running our livestock guardian dogs, training puppies and being a master of dogs. This is a battle of wills we must carefully manage. Getting a new dog at this age takes time. You need to form a bond with the dog and get them to learn to work with you before you can really start managing the situation and training in a successful manner so for now we mostly controlling access while we tire June out with her bestie Pete and socialize her with the livestock guardian dogs. Boy are we busy! We will be posting as much of this long process as we can here😅. We also will be putting June in training soon which is exciting.

You can tell by Luna cat's vertical tail that she approached June in friendship; June just has to learn to respect the ranch manager or get swatted.
LOL!!!!! 😂😂😂
Vertical tail means confidence - and can also mean dominance.
She did headbutt June which is usually a greeting for a friend. June just didn't respond the way Luna wanted*yet*.
Definitely. The fact that the cat has effectively educated several puppies, she’s figure out that this is a young dog, still in reality, a puppy, who needs a bit of education. It was so funny, watching her being followed by George and he was clearly wanting to chew her tail face was rich case of you to my tail and I will batter you and I don’t care how big you are the way her ears were going side to side.
I do think it’s healthy that dogs are raised with cats because it teaches some self control . Luna is a great cat and I can see why she’s so valuable to the farm, especially with her tolerance and ability to train young dogs to be careful with their teeth and show her respect.
The bottom line is you’ve got a young dog who still a puppy with a very strong herding instinct. And it’s just a case of education and learning self control. She’s a gorgeous dog . Here in the UK. You see quite a lot of working border collies and she’s a lovely example of the breed.
@@alistairjamesheaton9155 I have full confidence in Luna! She has this under control! That was so interesting to watch!
Luna is a straight up gangster. Don’t start no shit, won’t be no shit.
That's the opposite of how gangs work but ye ok I guess it's cool these days ay
OMG you just bought me back with that saying!! " Don't start no shit, won't be no shit." That is the code!!
Luna just slapping everybody 😂
SHE IS TRAINING THEM.
😂
Luna is such a badass. She walked right up to June like “Sup?”😂😂😂
Right? I’m like why can we take our time?😂
“Hi. You must be new here.” Gets nipped. “Oh, ok. You will learn now.”
best Choice you ever can make
Cats know what they're doing for sure. They are good at teaching boundaries.
They teach their own boundaries, but they're not so great at respecting other's boundaries. Such are cats.
Luna instinctively knows what she's doing. It's important for her to quickly set the ground rules w/June in place without losing face with all the other animals on the farm. June isn't stupid even though she's still young, so she's also going to see the way the LGD's and Pete listen to and trust Luna.
really. its like a scene in a prison movie.
Luna always had her tail straight up, even if it was a little bit flippy. She feels happy and comfortable but is always ready to defend her position.
I love when cats start slapping stuff, they always find another person or animal to slap once their first victim walks away
so true.
gotta get it all out! 😺
They can get pretty slap happy.
I’d watch Luna boss around the dogs all day 😂
Recon cat throwing paws.❤
What a cat, she even has the donkey in line. Luna runs a tight ship.
Luna giving June "Another learning opportunity" by approaching and allowing June to make a good choice.
I love the intuition you allow in your work with the animals you partner with.
"I'm going to give you an opportunity to make a better decision this time!"
Luna is walking up to June to give her affection in form of a headbutt and a rubb, June just need to learn that it's not a threat.
Donkey: Need any help training the new guy boss?
Luna: I got this
She does so much more than recon with the herd. She's a ranch hand and and animal supervisor. Im thinking she needs a raise. 😂😂❤❤
So happy that you have longer videos of all of your little critters. Luna, you’re the boss.
June's one ear up and one down is just precious
Probably the first time I've seen a cat approach a dog so confidently and calmly only to have the dog feeling invaded. It's usually the other way around.
Our cat was 50% Siamese, 100% crazy and had absolute boundaries. When she and our cattle dog got their ground rules figured out, they were best friends for life. They played together, groomed each other and slept together.
Trust Luna. As a lifetime cat owner and faithful watcher of your videos my gut instinct tells me Lina’s got a handle on it. So do you, the way you raise and handle your animals is exemplary!
Oh god Judge and that tail fetish 🤣🤣
Luna is like "Im the boss around here. Get with the program"
June was tempted and had a taste of the murder mitts 🤣🤣
One of my favorite animal behaviors is when animals come really close and put their face up to a cat so that the cat can punch it. I do this myself sometimes. It's so much fun, and the cats enjoy it too obviously.
Luna cat is such a valuable and priceless asset to have at the ranch. We love ya Luna 🐈 and all there!
I love how Luna goes at her own pace for training, you want it to go slower, but Luna wants to set ground rules fast!
June has some intense drive! She's in herding mode 100% of the time. My cattle dog/border collie mix is like that around anything that moves. It's exhausting and can be extremely annoying for the other animals. We've had to work with her alot, and still do, on an "off switch". Teaching her to be calm/relax around our cats and chickens, even if they are moving. And training a strong "leave-it" is a literal life saver. Good luck with this spunky girl! Take a deep breath!
She reminds me of my old cat Walter. Did he work on a farm? No. Did he train every animal he came in contact with to respect him as boss? Yes.
there was a cat at my grandpa's farm. there were no dogs, but she could strike fear in tom cats twice her size with a look. I have no doubt she put a few coyotes in there place. she lived to be twelve. quite old for a barn cat. did she work? she was the top ratter there, so yes
I'm glad I happened upon this channel. Most humans would interfere with this process but you safety encourage it for the animals growth and harmony. How refreshing.
Truly admire your attitude letting the animals figure this out. Too many people are quick to interfere, and conjure human feelings on these animals. You seem great at reading animal body language.
Gotta love Queen Luna!! She expects and demands loyalty no matter who you are or how new you are to the farm.. the scene with Judge following her is too precious😊.. Judge is her first, last, and only line of defense she needs.. But Lily and Bo are always nearby as well to protect The Queen..
I love Luna ❤️🤗❤️🤗. She is the boss as everyone can see that she inspects her infantry unit daily to make sure everyone is on point.
I was cracking up when Luna was on the tractor just smacking the shit out of everyone. She was funny with June....rolling around and walking right up to her 🤣🤣🤣❤❤ i just LOVE LUNA❤❤she lets everyone know she may be small but she is mighty
Luna will convince June that she is the size of a Cave Lion. With temperament to match. Luna has iron self confidence.
Luna the boss 🤣🤣🤣🤣 slapping them all into shape 🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Luna is the absolute ALPHA. All is well
So peaceful that you can let all the animals personalities really blossom and thrive. Thank you for showing this!
Luna is unafraid. She is amazing. She has to set boundaries or June may hurt her (not on purpose I'm sure).
Luna's back up plan is LILY!!!!!!
Luna is like a junior high school teacher who takes command of each of her/his classes immediately....setting the tone....you will respect and obey or disappear from that class....
I could sit on wheels and just watch all the animal interactions. How fascinating how they communicate with body language.
OMGosh June . . . Luna will train you so please just make it easy on yourself! And Judge. . . loves tails . . "don't bite the tail" . . .lol love it!! Love your ranchbabies
gotta love a super confident cat. there's a sweet boy on my road called "beast" that my dog-nephew (who normally runs after any cat, teenager that he is) just stands still and stares at. won't even dare lol.
beast, of course, being the beast that he is, doesn't give two fucks
You should rent a room or two out to some hooman guests! Like… a Raventree Ranch B and B… heck I’d sleep with the dogs if it meant getting to hang with em! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🥰🥰🥰
Would you like to have your home invaded ?
I would pack my bags immediately!
Love your little piece of heaven
Heaven w a dose of anxiety right now 😂
@@raventreeranch soon it'll be hard to remember life without her ☺️
@@raventreeranch Mabe work on leave it???
My money is always on the cat. I love your night time videos you guys got some strange noises out there and boy did those dogs pick up on all that I'm impressed!
Beautiful social dynamics going on on your farm. Everyone has got their own place.
Luna just won't have an out-of-control dog on her ranch. She will make sure June gets with the program, or she'll call in reinforcements to make her point! I love watching your security team in action!
My Anatolian learned early that he can play with the kittens/young cats, but if he gets too rough my older cat will put him in his place. She's been through 5 dogs now and knows how to manage them. The Rotties learned quickly that yes, she is the Boss cat and what she says is the law of the land. Love both Anatolians and Rotts they learn quickly. Not too sure if I'd get an older herding dog with her though. at 12 yrs. she does not take guff from anyone... LOL
I don't intend to rain on your parade...I really like your channel and videos. You mentioned that Luna is older...maybe you should have her train a kitten to accompany her in her old age and help her when she gets even older. Luna is a very special part of your operation. I don't know how it happened but she is special and so are your dogs. I really have enjoyed watching the kids run about. They are so cute and mischievous.
Thing I've learned with cats is if you've got a dog around them all it should take is one good 'BAP' from the cat to set the dog right
June will learn. Luna now has Judge "CREATING DUGOUTS " for her to perform " Necessary Kitty Surveillance " on the Farm. From her Dugouts she is able to Surveil areas without being as visible to HAWKS and other Birds if Prey. Judge enjoys providing the dugout holes for Luna. I am wondering if Luna as a Feline animal of Prey herself, has better vision at Nught for the Surveillance. She has the "SLIT" Corneas to regulate minimal light conditions. Course, I could be wrong.
CATS HAVE BETTER NIGHT VISION.
This is fascinating, the relationship dynamics are really eye opening to us city dwellers. Thanks for posting.
June is a real Cutie. I agree about her one up and one down Ear. Charming.
🤣He does have a tail fetish! And Luna really does run the ranch! The world is upside down 😂 When should I be packed??
The uniformed code of kitty justice. Recon kitty rocks. She da boss.
How Judge loves her is darling.
Luna is happy and marking the dog.
Luna is a torti, torti and calico cats (99% always female) don't take crap from anything or anyone. You should still work on "leave it" with that border collie. Excitement can turn into prey drive quickly and be disastrous for Luna, especially if the pack is present. Just some friendly advice as I've seen it often over the years.
The Anatolians won't let anything happen to Luna. And lily knows how to correct without overdoing it.
You don't know what is going on especially with Luna she's not a ordinary cat she's the boss and they know it the other dogs would never let anyone hurt her if you don't believe me go ahead and try doing something to Luna in front of the pack and you will be carried by six and she won't be judged by twelve.
There's a difference between not taking any crap and always needing to feel like the boss.
Luna is the best farm cative ever seen
This going to fun to watch! ❤ I’m glad someone else has a farm that has no dull moments!!😂
Cats don't put up with mess. 🤣
Luna is not afraid she's walked straight up and gone don't mess with me. I'm the manager around here. 😎
CATS RULE!!!!🐈 😻
You have the most inspiring channel ❤ I absolutely love your animals. ❤
⭐Luna boss lady!⭐♥️🤍💙
Nice of Luna to give June the benefit of the doubt. Think it will work out well after the process, lol. edit- 1:52 actually Luna might think she's a dog. She just barked at June.
I love your videos! Luna is the absolute BEST!!!
Sweetest working farm animals ever! ❤ great job!
I love how well ranch keepers read different animals. Very interesting ❤
you guys have to be some of the best stuff on the internet, keep em coming..... please
Cool... That's what make's the world go around.
I like that "WHAP pay attention" gotta respect the recon cat.
Luna is beautiful ❤
the dynamics between all of the different animals is crazy. love this video
Luna has a plan alright! She will smack some manners into June like two barrel racers fighting over a cowboy.
Yes, June appears to be an intense herder 24/7! Good luck lol lol lol. Luna has a big challenge too. I wonder if Lily or Bo will correct June when dealing with Luna. Pete can’t be the only one stressing out!
i love the way you talk as if you were in charge...so does luna...
Queen Luna is establishing whose boss!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🩷❤❤🩷❤❤❤❤❤❤
Luna say you better ask somebody….this December 😂 not June…..😂😂😂😂
I LOVE all your videos! ♥️🐕🐐🐈🐑♥️
Love watching the dogs doing their jobs and Luna too!❤
What’s joy your life must be…. Never boring
Fearless at educating dogs about their proper relationship to cats.
Luna just goes around slapping animals into line lol
June has to learn. Luna knows what to do. Just let her. Luna must prevail, or it all falls apart.
She's a Tortie - totally expect her to be the "manager" LOL. She's so pretty!
Luna runs the place. She does all the books, pays the salaries, does the taxes,etc. She even manages the web site, editing all the videos. The voiceover you her is actually Luna.
Molly: "If that new, annoying mutt gets away with more than I do......hell is coming for breakfast."
This seems like such a chill place! Provided you follow Luna's rules that is
She sure does ❤😂
Spicy Luna Queen 😉🐱💅
Birder collies are pretty smart. Luna will have her trained in no time!
I know our border collie loved our cats.... and she quickly learned the murder mittens meant business.... 😂❤️🐾❤️
😁 *_In my top 2, of all the RUclips vids that I've ever watched!_* 😁
What a brilliant life!!!
She need to listen or learn from her 😊😊
Catitude out the wazoo! Love it!
1:37 *Luna:* "I'm just gonna kick her ass. How's that for a plan?" 😆
Not the size of the cat in the fight, but the size of the fight in the cat - Meowsaytongue 😼
Awesome cat, and awesome ranch.
My favorite place on fb!!🤣💖💖
I love your channel!! ❤❤
Beautiful, love your farm!
