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.
