WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR SESSION
PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING!
-
When you arrive, ALL new cuddlers will fill out/sign our waiver form.
-
Cows spend their day eating, walking around, chewing their cud (standing up or lying down), sleeping, and pooping/peeing. This means your cuddle companion may eat the whole time, lie down the whole time, or a mix of both. You can pet, brush, hug, love on, and interact with them, even if they're eating.
-
PLEASE NOTE: We do not limit their feed or allow people to feed them treats to get them to interact with folks more (more on that in our FAQ). We also cannot force them to lie down, stand up, or be more attentive to you, so please keep this in mind when booking, then come with an open mind and heart and just enjoy being in their presence and at the farm!
OUR CUDDLE COWS
BISCUIT
Hello! I know, I know...I'm a total studmuffin. My name is Biscuit, and I'm a mid-size Highpark (Highland and White Park cross) steer born on 10/7/23. I hail from Pandarosa Ranch in Illinois. I'm basically a big pasture puppy that adores chin scratches, being loved on, giving love, and laying my head in cuddlers' laps. I am the literal definition of a cow hug and cuddle, so what are you waiting for?
I'm also good with people in wheelchairs, walkers, and/or mobility-assisted devices.
VICES
Likes chewing on: shoelaces, hoodie strings, and long hair, or really anything that looks like it would be fun to gnaw on.
TALENT
Can zip and unzip coats and untie shoelaces in two seconds flat!
BARLEY
There's cute and then there's OMG I'M DEAD FROM CUTE! I might fall under the latter definition. I'm Barley, a mini Highland steer born in Illinois (at the same ranch Biscuit came from--Pandarosa) on 1/31/24. I LOVE neck and chest rubs and will take as many of them as you can give me. No, seriously...why'd you stop? I've been known to pass out while you love on me, letting cuddlers get that full cow cuddling experience.
VICES
I can sometimes itch my head on people, but I'm usually pretty good about stopping when you tell me to.
TALENT
When I snug, I snug HARD!!, as in I will MELT into cuddlers, and have been known to lay my head in their laps and curl around them in a cow-cuddler rendition of "Big Spoon, Little Spoon."
OLIVE
I'm Lilly's second baby girl, Olive. I'm half mini-Highland, 1/4 Angus, and 1/4 Holstein. I was born on 5/31/25, so I'm in between my toddler and teenager phases. I'm very sweet, looooove giving kisses (and more kisses), and while I may be playful, I do enjoy snuggles when I lie down.
VICES
Chewing on anything and everything! My mom and dad will tell you not to let me do it, though. *sadface.* I can also be more forward with people and really enjoy rubbing my head on you.
TALENTS
Giving little blep kisses and suckering you into letting me chew on your clothes.
BASIL
I'm Lilly's first bull calf, born on 5/14/26. Like my big sister Olive, I'm a Highgus - half mini-Highland, half Angus/Holstein. Since I'm so young, I can be a bit timid/shy and sudden movements can startle me, so please keep that in mind before booking and be patient with me.
VICES
Putting anything and everything in my mouth.
TALENTS
Being 100% adorable!
LILLY
***PLEASE NOTE - LILLY IS CURRENTLY ON MATERNITY LEAVE BUT WILL RETURN IN THE FALL***
My name is Lilly, but my parents call me Lilly Belle. I'm an Angus Holstein cross cow with gorgeous midnight coloring. I like to live life in the slower lane, eat hay, and relax, so if you're looking to zen out, I'm your girl. They say I am the sweetest in the bunch and have never met someone I didn't like (although younger kids make me a little nervous). My size may be intimidating, but if those babies are too rowdy for you, book a session with me! I enjoy a good brushing and lots of pets, plus, you can lay on me if you want an extra big hug (no seriously, you really can). Can't wait to meet you and cuddle!
VICES
May have an obsession with sweet feed...
TALENTS
Converting people from being afraid of full-grown cows to being in love with them.
PEPPERMINT
***PEPPERMINT IS ON HIATUS UNTIL AFTER SHE IS AI'D DUE TO HER HORMONES MAKING HER WANT TO "HUG" EVERYONE...AHEM***
Hi everyone! I'm Peppermint, Lilly's first heifer calf, born on December 16, 2023, at the farm, and I'm an Angus/Holstein and Brahma/Normande cross. I'm a silly, spunky, adorable girl with beautiful coloring that matches my name--and I have ears for dayyyyyys! I'm the most interactive of the yearlings, always interested in my cuddle visitors and spying on everyone in between. Everyone who spends time with me always leaves saying how sweet I am.
I AM WARY OF YOUNGER KIDS SO NO ONE UNDER THE AGE OF 13, PLEASE!
VICES
Has a serious case of FOMO.
TALENTS
Moo'ing some really crazy moos that definitely do not sound like they're coming from a cow.
