Approaching a barn, with a cat at your feet, is bound to bring the barn swallows swooping out to scare you and the cat away, especially when they are nesting. So not only to you have to watch your feet so you don’t step on the cat, you have to duck the swooping bird and watch what you are standing under (since what goes in, must come out in a smelly form).
