I’ll quickly share my cow of the day before sharing my list of top 10 best cows of 2011. I saw it in a now very famous video of Baby Emerson feeling both terrified and hysterical when his mom blows her nose. Check him out sitting in the Evenflo Farmyard ExerSaucer Mega with the butt of the cow facing the camera:
Now, drumroll, please. I present you with the Top 10 Best Cows of 2011:
#10 – Best cow book: it’s a tie between Amazing Cows: Udder Absurdity for Children by Sandra Boynton
and There’s a Cow on the Roof by Eric Maddern.
#9 – Best household cow decoration: cow cookie jar

#8 – Freakiest cow sighting – the cow sofa

#7 – Best cow video: When the cows go marching in…
#6 – Best cow impersonation by a fake character – Olivia the Pig in a cow costume

#5 – Best cow impersonation by a real character – Pedro the Cat

#4 – Most surprising cow sighting: the flying cow
#3 – Best Cow Parade cow sculpture: the Sam-Moo-Rai

#2 – Biggest cow fan: The Cow Lady

#1 – Most famous cow of 2011: Yvonne, the runaway cow

After running wild in the Bavarian forest for several months this year, Yvonne is back in captivity and will now have a Hollywood animated movie made about her. As fellow blogger Pseu commented on the story the other day, Yvonne is milking her celebrity for all she can. And for that, she deserves to be the #1 cow of the year.
Do you have any cow favorites you’ve seen on this blog or somewhere else you’d like to share?




























Holy cow-spotted cat! I’m honored to have been recognized as one of your top 10 cows of 2011. I’m so glad to see that my Bovinity studies paid off! I’d like to thank the academy, my fans, the 355 cows that didn’t make the top 10 list, and my human for her paper mache skills. (Please disregard the horns.)
You’re very welcome, Pedro. You must have been a cow in your previous life to look so much like one.
I love #5 but I was thrilled to see Samoorai in there!
I’m glad you enjoyed seeing Samoorai on the list. I was a great find (both in name and look) and you’re the one to thank for it.
This is a very moo-ving post. :D
Glad you liked it! I don’t know why, but you keep ending in my spam folder on this site, how annoying!
