**Spoiled Cow Breaks Into Her Home Just To Wait For Her Family**

> Beryl is far from your ordinary cow. For one, she thinks she’s a dog — after all, she grew up side by side with two puppies.

> Still, that didn’t prepare Sally Webster, an Australian ranch owner, for the surprise the 8-month-old Brahman gave her when she returned home from grocery shopping one day.

> “She just likes to try and get in when she sees an open door,” Webster told The Dodo.  
> “She has an amazing memory and is very smart, so she knows where the calf milk lives in the laundry. The day she was caught in the lounge took me by surprise. I really didn’t expect to see her making herself comfortable sitting on the carpet,” she said.
> 
> Beryl is not only smart, but well-behaved: There was no mess or broken items when Webster found her sitting in the middle of the living room. Apparently, the cow had broken in only to wait.

The photos are adorable, but it still doesn’t make me want to run out and get a Housecow. Even if I could train her to use a litter box, I’d hate to scoop it.

you don’t eat a cow like that all at once…

That pic of her on her back getting a belly rub is hilarious.

They are going to need to widen the doors if that cow is going to continue to visit when she gets to be full size.

Next thing you know, there will be a lapcalf who grows into a full size cow still thinking it’s a lapcalf.

Hee. I love the one of her head in the window. It reminds me of Cookie Monster waiting for his cookies to bake.
