Formed in 1994 as the Farum Lions, the team played their first season of DAFL Premier League 1995 finishing 2nd, after losing the grand final.

The next year, the team, called Farum Lions at the time, won the DAFL Premier League.

In 1994 Jim Campion played for the Copenhagen Crocs, but decided to start his own club in Farum where he lived.

The club has won four premierships as the Cats, all of the times they've had exchange students from the Geelong College playing for them (usually two, but in 2011 only 1).

In 2005 the team started an exchange programme with the Geelong College getting 2 players for the duration of the DAFL, these are Rhys Bennet and David Burns-Wallace.

The year ends in triumph for the Cats, as they claim their second overall premiership, and David Burns-Wallace wins Best on Ground in the grand final, even though playing most of it with a broken wrist.

In 2007, the names of the Geelong boys were John Bailey and Steen Balodis, and they continue the trend of dominating in the DAFL, as Farum claims their third premiership in a row.

As a result of the split up, the 2 players to play the most DAFL games this year is Nathan Campion and Simon Malone.

The Cats went on to win the Grand Final at Limhamnsfältet in Malmö, bringing home the club's second triple premiership.

However, with the addition of Australian Sam Killworth and Aalborg ruckman Rene Pallsgaard, and the added support from Greater Western Sydney Giants who provided new playing kits to the team, they decided to give it a go.

It was an up and down season for both teams, especially for the Giants who in late June impressively beat the Cats, only to go down crashing against the Barracudas 5 days later.

They were greyish silver with the GFC shield of the Geelong Football Club on Farum Cats lungs and on the stomach.
