When it comes to being a farmer, you tend to focus on the rough and tough side of the physical work you are doing. People know all about the ploughing and plucking, the roping and sowing. Work from dusk 'til dawn and with very little pay nowadays. However, TikTok has provided a place to share another side to farming, a much more wholesome side: The side of the farmer loving on their animals. Not all farmers have this POV, some simply see their animals as livestock and that's that—sometimes that's just what you gotta do to do your job. But sometimes, you don't have to do that, and a farmer can love on each of their "livestock" animals as if they are their loving pet—because they kinda are!

 

Just look at Annie, the friendly sheep!

  • Annie was left orphaned when her mom and sister passed during her birth. She had to be cared for and raised by her humans. This made her extremely friendly and happy to be around humans. She wants to cuddle up to you any chance she gets! One farmer found this out in the cutest way, and now she loves to visit her sweet sheep friend as much as possible! She even shares videos of the wholesome moments the two friends share together, saying “how do people not love these animals?! They are the same as any pet—just wanting to find safety and comfort in the arms of a human.” See Annie's adorableness below! 

  • "The last clip made me melt, cuddling up to me after I gave her a kiss..."
