The Farmyard comes to Animal Aid

There must be something in the air, we have never had such an influx in the demand for housing small livestock in my whole memory of working at Animal Aid. In a matter of weeks we have accumulated 5 goats, Young Bill, Josh, Fred, and Little Jack and Jill, George the sheep and two Muscovy drakes named Pic and Pek.

As much as we love having them around, the shelter is not an ideal place for any of them and we really need to find them new homes. From what we have learned about them, Fred, Josh and Bill would be happy to go together but George would probably rather be amongst his own kind. As much as he likes hanging around the goats well enough, they are a little bossy with him and he is a peaceful soul. Jack and Jill are a cute little pair, and I mean little, they are miniature goats.
