I'm so sorry. But you did such a good job with those goats and at least they were well cared for, safe and loved in their final days. Don't give up hope we all have been through some tough times. You did your best and those goaties know it. Hang in there. :hugs

I am so sorry. It is so hard to loose an animal... Find peace in knowing you did all you could.

Oh no! :hit
Poor goatie... At least you were actually trying to help him. A lot of people out there would have said "It's a goat, eat him" and have been done with it before now. Don't worry about "curses," time and unforeseen occurrences befall us all, it's not like you were hoping it would happen or anything.


You deserve some hugs...
:hugs :hugs :hugs

You can make it through this terrible ordeal, and give the other guys a chance!
Crap happens.

Just ask me, I seem to attract a lot of problems too. :/

Hearing about your loss of Hoover just took my breath away. I'm so terribly sorry but agree with others when they say you're not cursed. You love your goaties and they love you. Don't turn your heart off to them. You deserve them and all the happiness they give you. :hugs to you!!!!

So deeply sorry!

Theres nothing wrong with your legs
but Ill rub in the liniment anyway
knowing all along that youve decided
the way a goat will
to die just because
and nothing can tempt you back
not even the wind and new fall
of sweet leaves along the creek.
Astronomy is what Im left
with you bony old goat
in a field of white stars
burned out
across a void that weighs like grief
Ill say your name.
And in the pasture, in the months to come,
Ill stop over the gray droppings,
a dumb poet
who's on to nothing,
still attached to the ordinary.
