ROGERSVILLE, Tenn. - A man's homeowners insurance apparently doesn't cover "acts of cow."
Jerry Lynn Davis called the Hawkins County Sheriff's office in Tennessee on Thursday, complaining that a neighbour's cows had been licking his house. In the process, Davis says the curious bovines did about $100 in damage by ripping off a screen window, cracking the glass and pulling down a gutter.
The Kingsport Times-News reports that Davis' home is next to a fence enclosing the cows' pasture. They managed to poke their heads through to lick the house, though a deputy's report did not indicate what made the house so tasty.
Deputy Chris Funk was able to contact the cows' owner, who said he'd take care of the problem.
