No.  It was the gravy boat.  It came in a set.  The calf was for cream, cow 
was for gravy and the bull was for tea.

I do have a wonderful pig pitcher that I treasure.  He is very likable with 
a blue sash and golden cross on the end and the milk (or whatever) comes out 
his snout.  It looks rather like a barnyard on my table at times with my old 
colbalt chicken-stemmed bowls, the little yellow soft egg cups, the pig 
shaped cutting board, the turkey platter and the squirrl shaped cleaver.
