Sounds like the perfect opportunity to have the adult conversation about what constitutes a socially acceptable number of cows to have in your house. It’s a very important conversation.

1 is very weird, 5 is totally crazy, 80 is derangement.

But hey, 88 is double happiness, almost there.

Is 2 weirder than 1? I feel like that would make more sense…

But when does the “parabola-of-acceptable-amount-of-cows-in-a-house” top out?

Asking for a friend of course…

1 is acceptable when you’re a medieval peasant.
2-4 is never OK.
5+ is fine, but it turns the house into a barn.

Very true, after a certain number of cows they stop being inside your house and you start being inside their barn lol

I’m sure we all remember when our parents had the talk with us about this.

I recall being told something about two cows…

That’s why we all check for creepers hiding on our roof before we go outside…

My dad used to live in the country, and a single cow got into a semi-abandoned old ranch hand house. (We assume some one left the door open. It was in there for a day or so.

That cow absolutely wrecked the place. Walls kicked in, windows smashed (frame and all), floors ripped up, table in 2 pieces, just an absolute disaster. Also, the poop.

So. ONE COW. If unsupervised.

Indoor cows obviously require more supervision than outdoor cows. That’s just common sense.

Not every cow is suitable to be an indoor cow. They all have different temperaments like any other pet. Most cows do better outside or in a barn.

Get a donkey instead

That dog knows the donkey is in charge

Something like this poor Montana family’s house? (Article with pictures)
