Genetically engineered cows identical in every respect to the original except in size. These feline-sized bovines are calm, quiet good with children and require little maintenance.

Buy one for every member of the family and let the coäts (pronounced co-ats) graze your yard. You'll never have to mow again! (Yes, I'm talking to you [Rods Tiger])

With a little patience and care, you can even have fresh dairy products on a daily basis.

So, it might be better spelled coäts? [Dewey, Jun 20 2001, last modified Oct 17 2004]

Fainting Goats http://www.webworks...s/faintinggoat.html
Scare them and they go stiff and fall over. For when they're not mowing. Loads of fun. [StarChaser, Jun 20 2001, last modified Oct 21 2004]

       I'm starting to understand why buffalo wings are so small.

       Miniature mammallian mowing is most perfectly baked in the form of guinnea pigs. These mow much more neatly than rabbits and are easy to keep. You don't get much milk out of them though.

       Mephista: Carnivores appreciate cows for other reasons, as well.

       Hahahaha, Vietnamese pot-bellied cows.   

       Strangely enough, there seems to be a fair bit of evidence that cattle in the Middle Ages were much smaller (around 100-120 kg instead of the current 500-odd kg). Selective breeding has bred a whole population of Supercows.

       ÜberCoäts?

       My wife would like a corral of miniature horses in some corner of the living room, none more than, say, two inches high. We'd let them roam free across the shagpile savannah, and cleaning up after would be a lot less troublesome than those bonsai buffalo we had last year. Had to hire out a pride of Li'l Lions to clear 'em out.   

       Before we take on our mini-Mustangs, anyone know how to exterminate an infestation of Li'l Lions?

       a friend of mine, while dining at his favourite chinese restaurant, ordered his favourite dish - sliced beef with black bean sauce - and found in his food what he concluded to be the vertebra of a cat sized cow. needless to say he doesn't eat there anymore.

       Those hooves might be hard on wood flooring...
