Randy Cate worked on numerous Oklahoma ranches before returning home to Bruner, Missouri, to care for his aging parents. There he began his career as a farrier. Soon word of Cate’s skill – especially in treating foundered horses – quickly spread. Known to donate his services if an owner can’t pay, Cate is a Brotherhood of Working Farriers member, and was recognized by the Missouri Legislature in 2002 for engineering a hydraulic table to treat horses.
