Belinda Has Passed Away.

Unfortunately Betty’s life long pal Belinda died very suddenly at the vets in July. We presume that she had a heart attack. It was very sudden and came as a great shock. Both these goats were very overweight when they came to us and we are still battling with Bettys weight. Betty needs a friend possibly of a similar age and size. She is a lot better now but grieved for quite a while after the loss of Belinda and would not stop looking for her and bleating. We really felt for her. She is an 8 year old Pygmy goat and does not like small children. She also doesn’t like hairy little pigs by the name of Rocky and they have developed a real love, hate relationship in recent weeks.

Far too often fledglings are picked up which should not be disturbed. Pigeons make great parents, but they aren’t very clever at making secure nests, they often resemble a pile of twigs…
