Best Buds (Q-tip & Leo) - Die-Cut Magnet 4x4
This is Q-tip and Leo, caught mid-moment on an ordinary afternoon out in the pasture. Q-tip is our first baby born here at Wolf & Steer — a pure white mini-Highland with a big black nose and a coat so fluffy it looks unreal. Leo is the dark brown calf with the yellow ear tag, and he has been Q-tip's shadow since day one. Where one goes, the other follows. This photo is exactly how we found them: forehead to forehead, quiet, working something out between themselves the way calves do.
We turned that phone snapshot into a 4"x4" die-cut magnet with a glossy UV-resistant finish, so the colors stay true even if it lives on a sunny fridge or a locker door. The die-cut shape hugs the outline of the photo instead of sitting inside a boring rectangle, and the magnet backing is strong enough to hold a grocery list or a couple of kid drawings without sliding. It's a small thing, but it's the kind of small thing that makes you smile every time you reach for the milk.
Who it's for
If you love Highland cows, baby cows, or anything fluffy with a wet nose, this one's for you. It makes a sweet little gift for a farm-loving mom, a country kitchen, a first apartment, or a coworker who needs more cuteness on their filing cabinet. Stocking stuffers, birthday add-ons, housewarming tuck-ins — it fits all of those.

About the photo
We don't stage our animal photos. Q-tip and Leo were in the middle of one of their standard best-friend check-ins when this was taken, and it captured exactly what their friendship looks like day to day. Q-tip's wool is genuinely that bright and that fluffy — Scottish Highland calves have an undercoat that's softer than most people expect. Leo's ear tag is part of normal farm life: it's how we keep track of everyone and their records. We left it in the photo because that's the real Leo.
A note from the farm
Wolf & Steer is a family-run 30-acre farm in mid-Michigan. Robert (Daddy Goose), Erica (Mommy Goose), and our 9-year-old run the place, along with a herd of Highlands, some mini cows, a few opinionated goats, and whatever else wanders through. When you buy a magnet with Q-tip on it, you're supporting the hay, the fencing, and the vet visits that keep him looking ridiculous.
Shipping
Every magnet is made to order by our US print partners in Charlotte, Los Angeles, or Dallas, usually within 2–5 business days, and then shipped to you. Because each one is printed fresh, we don't keep inventory sitting in a warehouse — your magnet is made for your order.
Stick it on the fridge. Stick it on a metal lunchbox. Stick it on the side of the toolbox in the garage so you think about baby cows while you look for a wrench. However you use it, we hope Q-tip and Leo make your day a little softer.
