My Favorite Animal

By Maggie

Wow Meow! This was a hard one this month because my family and I love all animals. But my favorite (beside kitties) would have to be the cow. Now that may seem silly to most but in Florida there are lots of cows and they are so pretty to me. There are oreo cows and brown cows (for chocolate milk) and even all white cows believe it or not.

They just roam around and eat and eat and sleep. Did you know that they sleep standing up? I don't know how they manage that, I would fall over for sure. Until we moved to Florida we never seened a cow lay down and rest. We understand now though because Florida is so lay back and slow even for the cows. Now I bet you don't see cows laying down in New York!

For those who eat meat (not me, I prefer fish) the cows are plentiful to feed the hoomans. As long as they are not abused, which in most cases they are not. We happen to watch a special on that once.

And for milk (YIPPEEEEE) the are happy to give us plenty of milk. Gosh what we we do without the cow?

Yep, the cow is my favorite! Besides they sometimes sound like they say meow when they say mooooo. So maybe we are related. (Levis says that I am realted to the cow) I don't know what he means by that I guess because I'm black and white?
