Valentine was rescued from a dairy farm at just three days old. As a male calf or “bobby calf”, Valentine is considered waste by the dairy industry. The day we picked Valentine up we could see he was weak and scared. He needed his mother. It took a few days of coaxing to feed from the bottle but by day three Valentine was feeding with gusto, gaining strength with every feed. 

As he grew, it became clear Valentine loves nothing better than a talk and cuddle. Valentine enjoys spending his days with the cow herd, including best friend Tuppence. He remains a wonderful ambassador for bobby calves everywhere, helping to spread awareness of the cruelty and suffering that is the dairy industry.

Rescue date: February 2015
