Tim sent pictures of his friend Audrey's Lincoln Town cow car, painted up
in a lovely Ayrshire brown and white, complete with mooing horn, and
4-foot statue of her beloved Betty on top. In addition to owning this
fun car, Audrey is co-founder of
Pott Belly Manor
animal rescue.

What more do you need to say?

The lovely Betty herself, who inspired it all.
Ceira emailed some pictures of her moos. The first one is JJ. She says,
"He is so sweet and adorable! He is now 2 months and 2 days old." The other
is Bear. "Bear was the first cow that I ever bottle raised. He is so sweet and loving. He comes up to anyone that comes to pet him. He is about 2 years now and is very big and cute. I love him to death."

I am sooo cute!
Bear is very friendly

Quick Cow facts:
Do cows have horns? Yes, female bovines almost always have horns. While
some cows are naturally polled (which means horn-free), the majority have their
horns removed when they are calves to make them safer to handle. So, YES,
cows can indeed have horns!
Oreo cookie cows? Yes, there are "belted" bovines out there!
More cow facts!
- The Brown Swiss is originally from -- Switzerland! The Swiss cow is called Swiss Brown or Braunvieh.
- The Holstein produces the most milk of all breeds.
- Brahman cows stand about 4 feet high at the withers (not including the hump), and weigh an average of 1200-1300 pounds.
- The Guernsey breed was started on the Isle of Guernsey by a group of monks about a thousand years ago!
- Canadienne cattle were developed in Canada from animals imported from France (Normandy and Brittany) during the 1600s and 1700s.
- Bos indicus type cattle have several features that distinguish them from European cattle: long, pendulous ears, a hump over the shoulder and neck area, and a large throatlatch and dewlap which have a lot of excess skin.
- There are approximately 350 squirts in a gallon of milk.
- The White Park is an all white cow with black points -- black ears, nose, hoofs, rims of the eyes, and teats, but not the tail switch.
