That's quite old for a cow.  Ours never last longer than about 18, but that's after having a calf every year since a cow was 3.  And we market them as they become less productive.  No, our cows are not pets.  One cannot afford to be too sentimental...it's not practical, nor affordable.

It sure beats arguing about the usual hot topics.  We have a cow at our place named Barbecue.  She belongs to Skip Lightfoot and you can actually ride her.  You can't steer her but she will let you ride her.  Ask Jeremy Reynolds.  I have seen him ride her.  Skip raised her from a baby and she adores him and will come when he calls her.  We don't know how long cows live but Barbie is somewhere between 22 and 24.  I guess cows usually are not pets and go away at a younger age.................mb
