Goats as Pets

I'd love to have some bigger animals. Alpacas say. But my backyard is just too small.


But on the weekend I met this adorable fellow up close. Spike. A goat. Now I have heard that boy goats are a bit rank. And maybe they are, but out in the open Spike seems extremely OK. The thing I found surprising though was his rough coat. I'm so used to stroking animals and them being soft, I wasn't expecting a bony knobbly back with scratchy hair. He was pretty pleased to be scratched around his face though. Pretty cute!
