This story is most likely for the vegans and vegetarians around Colorado, because it would be weird to cuddle a cow and then have a hamburger for dinner later, right?

Luvin’ Arms Animal Sanctuary launched its Cow Cuddle Experience last summer, but it’s back again this summer and getting really popular.

The sanctuary in Erie has eight cows, which are all rescues coming from situations including abuse, neglect and mental trauma.

Guests can hug them, pet them and even lay alongside them, with some experts saying the process can be good for you with benefits such as decreasing heart rate and calming people down.
