The Goating Scene
Goats play very unimportant roles in society these days and are often overlooked when people are searching for pets. Contrary to popular belief, the goat is actually a very domesticated animal and is often far more intelligent than many kinds of tropical fish, this makes them an ideal pet for most households.
One thing you should be careful about when picking a goat is its colour. All goats start life as a multi-coloured blob in an egg and later develop their natural fur colour. If you pick a pink goat with yellow spots, the poor thing’s just going to get laughed at, instead try to pick a manlier colour such as green or blue. This will ensure your goat gains the credibility it deserves.
So now that you’ve got your very own goat, how do you care for it? Well the majority of goats live on a diet of mildly warm milk and cookies, this gives their bodies all the nutrition they’ll ever need. They also tend to enjoy Morrison’s branded orange juice, but try to use this sparingly as it can often lead to athlete’s hoof. Most goats like to live indoors, either on the couch or in a bed, but they should also get plenty of time in the garden to graze. Try to strike a balance between the two.
