Loft And Lily

Loft And Lily is a breeder of Scottish highland cattle in Solon, IA, in Johnson County near Iowa City. Hugh Seanard has bred Scottish highland cattle for over a decade and participates in national registry evaluations with regular health testing for each animal.

The herd grazes on managed pastures with rotational grazing and receives daily handling from a small family-run farm to encourage calm dispositions. Several of their cattle have earned recognition at county fairs for their even temper and hardy constitution. New owners often comment on the practical guidance Hugh provides on pasture preparation and herd care, making the transition to highland cattle a smoother experience.

Seasonal health checks and a year-round shelter ensure the cattle thrive through Iowa’s varied weather. Hugh’s approach emphasizes natural foraging supplemented by mineral-rich hay during colder months to support strong immune systems. Raised alongside children and household pets, the cattle become accustomed to gentle interactions from an early age.
