Horses are usually considered pets, whereas cattle are normally not. I keep my horse in a separate pasture because he requires a little grain daily and higher quality hay. My cows get grain only once a week and get the lesser quality hay. What it all boils down to is the horse gets his own pasture so he wont have to compete with the cows for food.
