Holy Cow!!!

Cows are really very docile animals. They never trouble anybody other than me. I dont know whats in me makes them so angry, may be I look like something very tasty to them! why do I say that? Experience man/woman all experience!!

I had gone to my cousins place and my granny has this habit of feeding this specific cow which passes everyday by that house and moos ..Smart cow! That day as usual my granny went out to feed this very docile cow, I too followed her. It started helping itself from the vessel which my granny was holding. I was so tempted to touch it and i did so, to my horror it got so annoyed that it stopped eating and menacingly threatened its horns on me, i fell down with shock and it stamped me with its soft hoofs. If it were not for my granny's quick thinking I would have been in the hospital with wounds in my stomach. She dragged the cows mouth with the vessel and it was behaving as if nothing had happened. I sometimes tend to think it had some kind of split personality.

Whoa! so much for a white cow, now for a white cow with brown patches. I was waiting one day at the bus-stand, all sorts of people were standing and all eagerly waiting for a bus to come in that scorching sun. It happened so that a hungry cow wandered about a bit here and there in search of something to eat. Since no bus was coming I stole a few glances now and then at the cow as if I were in love with that cow. It definitely had a voracious appetite, eating all its way to my back where it gave me a nudge on my back with its hornless head. I am sure I was lifted from the ground, so much for a nudge. By then the co-bus standers shooed away the cow. Either that cow saw grass on my back or it sould have been my hero in its previous birth..

Then comes the real fierce one. I was on my way to C classes in my second year of Engineering on my cycle. I had just taken a bend on the road near to the college temple when I saw a real fierce looking bull in full charge running towards me. It was such a sight my heart leapt to my mouth and my brains ceased to function (another boyfriend maybe!). At the nick of the time I came of the road, it would have been such an accident. Also it was deserted that afternoon I could have easily bled to death! The reason the bull was running so wildly was because of a stupid guy on a moped who was trying to catch this bull with a rope in true cowboy style. Maybe he was in dire need of a bull for his own sweet pet cow! Who knows! But I would have given him a lecture on the harmful effects of catching bulls like these.. What if he had suceeded in catching that bull with his rope and suppose it decides to run for its life, dragging him along. I wish something like that had happened, he had almost killed me with his act.

Cows are really docile! Thats true unless you are Sugeetha!

You are lucky, it is always cows. When it comes to me it is always dogs :-(. Inspired from your post, I am thinking of writing some of those encounters with stray dogs occured while I were studying at school. :)
