I was at the farm a couple days ago, and some of the calves were old enough to go outside. Before they are allowed outside, they have to have ear tags so they don’t get lost. I noticed a calf sitting all by itself. Naturally, I go over to see what is the matter, or what it’s doing. It was just lying there, so I sat beside it. It didn’t move, so I reached over and rubbed its head. It loved being pet! So I was just sitting there, petting it when all of a sudden it decides it wants to sit on my lap! It acted as if it were a kitten, just rubbing its head along my hand, so I kept petting it.
After about five minutes, another calf wondered what I was doing. She wandered over and then she wanted to be petted, too! I was confused, wondering if these animals were really wild or tame and following our dog’s antics. After about ten minutes, when my sister and my mom’s boyfriend were done feeding the cows still in the barn and watering them, I had to leave. But we went to see the cows in the field, so I didn’t mind. I love when calves act like little kittens and puppies, because they’re so calm, unlike their frantic mothers who would be scared of us humans
