The best-case scenario is that she saw the cows on the other side of the fence to the east, and since our fences aren't the best, she joined them. It's happened before with other cows. I've called the people who own the cows over there and left a message.
Worst-case scenario? She may have fallen off one of the quite precarious cliffs and overhangs on our property and broken her neck.
Update: Babe wasn't lost at all. Cliff went out to close the garage, and there she was in the pasture with the others.
That seems a little weird, doesn't it? Are they like dogs with internal homing devices? How far away is your brother-in-law's place?
ReplyDeleteDown here we sometime first think of cattle rustling because it does go on. I'm glad Babe showed her pretty face.
ReplyDeleteSo glad she's OK--didn't see your update at first and was getting very worried. (not that I don't already have a lot to worry about)
ReplyDeleteGlad she's back.
ReplyDeletethat is a refief! I thought sure she was gone for good. I thought maybe some one had beef in their freezer.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad she was there all along.
ReplyDeletePhew! Good!!
ReplyDeleteThank goodness. Had me worried. The part about the broken neck. Now I can erase that picture from my head and replace it with the lovely one you posted.
