Goats are ornery, but also so cute.

And another poor creature like this goat was on a mission of its own and got lassoed, You know they say that animals start to talk at midnight on Christmas Eve sure wish that could be true and I know there would be a lot of good stories to tell, I wonder what my cats might say to me,

So am I since I am sure law enforcement officers make an effort not to injure a goat.

Some good skills there, as not many of us could throw a lasso, in these days, and times.

I'm glad the goat wasn't injured. So many animals running the streets these days.

That is true since two of my relatives cats like to run outside of the home for a walk during the day.
