Pic: Kilkenny man gets an unwelcome ‘hug’ from young calf

Homenews

Priceless…

JOE reader, Liam Walsh, sent us in the following picture of one of his calves getting a little too close for comfort. Just a hazard of the job, we guess. Speaking to JOE, Liam said: “After this particular calf was born it got sick and every evening after school I had to nurse the calf by feeding him milk. “The calf was very quiet and tame and he took to me. This happened when I put him out to grass and some fencing wire broke. When I went over to fix it he started to mount me. “He’s a very playful calf and follows me everywhere. He’s like a pet really.” "My cousin wrote the caption, by the way." 11130625_774618472657685_1114326476_n-1 Massive thanks to Liam Walsh for sending this our way
