Bloomin' Daisy

Ok, here's the latest revelation. We've been beset by a cloven hoofed beast and her name is Daisy. Well, yeah, I suppose that's a bit melodramatic as she is a sweet little baby pygmy goat. She currently resides in a dog cage in our bathroom complete with stuffed animal and heart shaped pillow to sleep on. Well, that's when she's not watching tv or chewing on my boot laces. Black and silver hair with white patches makes here a classic agouti colored pygmy. Her grown weight will be between 35 and 45 pounds but right now she's about 5 pounds , or about half the size of the cat that babysits her. She's just a bottle baby right now but she is full of energy and bounces everywhere she goes. Carrie practically has her potty trained. We will be getting her a playmate in the next week or so. A little boy to chase and flirt with.
