A viral video from The Gentle Barn sanctuary shows a cow named Love turning her head to ask a woman, described as her owner, for a cuddle. The sanctuary says Love was born into a life of kindness and respect.

A video from The Gentle Barn, a farm animal sanctuary, has gone viral. It shows a cow named Love lying in the grass while her owner sits beside her. Instead of simply resting, Love turns her head toward the woman in what looks like a gentle request for a cuddle. The text with the clip reads, "Everyone deserves to be this safe and loved!"

The sanctuary says Love was born into an environment where she has always been treated with kindness and respect. She was born on July 25, 2022, at The Gentle Barn's Tennessee location. Her mother, Audrey, had been rescued six months earlier after escaping being sent to slaughter. Staff suspected Audrey might be pregnant but expected the calf later in the year, so Love's early arrival was a surprise.

According to the sanctuary, Love stood just hours after birth and nursed easily. Caregivers described her as one of the healthiest calves. She spent her days racing around and following her mother and older sister, Truth.

The Gentle Barn has locations in California and Tennessee. It rescues and cares for farm animals that have experienced difficult circumstances. Through a sponsorship program, supporters can receive monthly updates, photographs and an official certificate, which helps fund the animals' care. The sanctuary says Love and her family will stay together for life.
