More Than Horses: Our Barn Family

whitefencesaustinbraveheart

🐾 Braveheart: Chief Mouser & Midnight Patrol

Don’t let the soft grey coat fool you, Braveheart lives up to his name. As the fearless guardian of feed rooms and quiet tack spaces, this barn cat takes his role seriously. He patrols the grounds like clockwork, ensuring no mouse or misplaced hay string goes unnoticed.  Often found napping in sunbeams or supervising from a very comfortable position, Braveheart is both a stoic presence and an unexpected comfort to horses and humans alike. Whether he's greeting client or sharing a quiet moment with a nervous rider, Braveheart is as much a part of the White Fences team as any trainer or hoof trimmer.

  • Specialty: Rodent control, barn morale, silent judgment
  • Favorite spot: Any table, any chair
  • Years of service: Eight years of being in in charge

🐾 Carpet: Lead Supervisor & Sunbeam Strategist

With eight years of loyal barn service, Carpet is the undisputed leader of White Fences. Known for his laid-back vibe and uncanny ability to appear exactly where you don’t expect him, Carpet has mastered the art of being both elusive and ever-present.  He earned his name from his early habit of sprawling luxuriously across aisleways, daring anyone (horse or human) to step around him. From calming new horses with his quiet presence to casually inspecting farrier work, Carpet keeps a close eye on everything, from ground level, of course.

  • Specialty: Aisle napping, quality control, quiet companionship
  • Favorite spot: Wherever hay meets sunshine
  • Years of service: 8 and still clocking in
