Feather Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 I've had news today that our Best Goat Ever Hanneman died today (Feb. 8). While he and I sometimes had issues when it came time to be put to bed, I'll miss him a lot. We were always the envy of hikers as we set up our gourmet picnic site. Thanks to Hanny packin in basket, blankets, grub, wine and burner or portable stove. He loved to have the space between his horns scritched. My two shetland sheep will miss him, he looked over them as if they were part of his own flock. He served as a flock protector, mini-pony, hiking buddy, and good-will ambassador. I hope that, wherever good goats go when they die, it is full of fields of prickly blackberry bushes, cedars and sapling alder trees. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
charissa1066 Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I'm sorry for your loss, Feather. You have some great memories of Hanneman. He was one lucky goat to have such a loving friend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RoAnnon Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Aww Feather, I'm so sorry. Is 10 particularly old for a goat? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
