I thought that most cats would only be good for catching mice, the rats are a bit too big and nasty for many cats to deal with. I thought that the best way of dealing with rats was a pack of terrier dogs.
When I was little, we had a six-pound American shorthair cat who would take on anything. She terrorized the German Shepard next door (he would to come into the yard to do his business, and she did not like that!) She not only brought us mice, snakes (including a couple of copperheads), and birds, but once a full grown opossum, which was twice her size. She was the sweetest, most loving cat (an excellent mother!), but she did not like 'strangers' in her yard!
