When I was a kid our neighbor got a goat. She told my brother and I we could visit it any time we wanted, (she was gone all the time)

The first time we went for a visit we brought the goat some tin cans and an old shoe because that's what cartoons taught us goats eat. We were extremely disappointed. 🐐

My sister and I used to have this babysitter in Indiana, and her neighbor had a pet wolf in the backyard. Her son always told us he would eat us if we even breathed on their side of the fence. So, I stuck my middle finger out through one of the wholes in the fence. He was not amused and the wolf was super sweet and licked my hand. Lol I was 11, but that kid had it coming ?

I ❤ goats too. Love the can/shoe experiment!

They mostly like what ever my mom hung on the cloths line. For a time in the nineties I had jeans with holes in them. In the shape of goat teeth.

I can see your how your curious mind works. Early Character Development through experimentation.

I wonder how the goat felt.

I would say, confused and disappointed.

Once at a petting zoo a goat attempted to munch on the tee shirt I was wearing. I was momentarily amused, then I pulled away. The goat seemed to take it in stride.

They do, however, eat car antennas, laundry, lawnmower ignition wiring; everything except grass. I know this from personal experience. They are also the only animal except for humans that will degrade their environment to the point where they can no longer survive there. The middle eastern and north African deserts were mostly caused by goats. No fence will hold them. They will climb on your new car and in thirty seconds do more damage than a major hailstorm. They do these things because they are evil. They should be exterminated. Here endeth the lesson.

@pepperjones Cool? Have you ever smelled a billy goat?

@pepperjones 100 metres is close enough. You don't even have to roll down the windows.?

I do hope this didn't leave a permanent scar on your psyche. If you need to talk about it, you know where l am. ?

@pepperjones Me too. We had a pet goat on one of my step-grandfather's farms. His name was Seymour, and he would butt you.

@pepperjones There is help for people that love goats. Goats are proof that God hates us.

@Arouet l think you are confusing goats with Rebublicans.
