Adopt Iona with Meet and Greet

🌟🐮 Meet Iona🐮🌟

Date of Birth: 10/09/2020

About Iona: Step into the enchanting world of Iona, a stunning Highland Cow with the classic, gorgeous red colouring that makes her stand out in the herd. Born on the 10th of September in 2020, Iona joined our farm when she was just 6 months old, capturing our hearts instantly with her teddy bear-like appearance.

Iona quickly established herself as the herd’s sweetheart, exuding charm and endearing herself to all. Her distinct curved horns and long, tousled fringe add to her captivating Highland charm.

Personality: Iona is more than just a pretty face; she’s the herd’s social butterfly. With a big, attractive personality, she enjoys being the centre of attention and making her presence known within the herd. Her journey into motherhood began in April 2023 when she welcomed her first calf, a charming little bull, and more recently another beautiful bull in November 2024. 

Dietary Delights: When it comes to meals, Iona enjoys a wholesome diet of grass, hay, silage, and plenty of veggies. For a special treat, she adores hand-fed potatoes or carrots (safely, through the security of a gate), although those majestic horns remind us to handle with care.

Adoption Details: By adopting Iona, you become an honorary member of her extended family. Revel in the joy of meeting her, feeding her safely, and capturing precious moments during your exclusive 30-minute meet and greet.

Adopt Iona today and let the Highland magic unfold in your life!

Please note that for your safety, handfeeding will occur with a gate separating you and the cattle. If feasible, our staff will accompany you into the pasture for photos; however, we cannot guarantee proximity or petting within the pasture due to the cow’s large horns. Safety is our priority, and the cattle’s unpredictable head movements make it crucial to prevent unintended injuries. Remember, all meet-and-greet sessions must be pre-booked, ensuring a delightful and secure experience for everyone involved.
