I am visiting friends. Their neigbhour just got a pet goat. A dwarf goat playing in their yard.
I thought goat was supposed to be eaten!! Fried, grilled, boiled, roasted. Now here's a source of meat playing in a neigbhours yard for pete's sake :eek: Flaunting and showing off. And the goat is always screaming "meeehhh meeehhh" ing around the yard. Almost like saying..."come get me" :rolleyes:

If this goat is cooked for dinner, the tail will be the most delicious. lucky goat.

I can never understand why some people have acquariums either. Goldfish is the only fish i can stand to see in an acquarium cos they are too cute to be eaten. Everything else should belong in a pot!

There was a newspaper article here recently about a man who bought a miniature horse for his son as a 'household pet' because of his son's allergies to other types of pets. And, a horse is more cuddly and capable of showing affection than, say, a hamster.

Needless to say the neighbors complained citing an ordinance in their neighborhood that deals with owning animals that aren't household pets. Now, this horse is miniature, and is smaller than a large dog such as a Mastiff or a Great Dane. But there has been a big debate about whether he should be allowed to keep it or if it violates the ordinance about household pets.

That's what I was thinking too, but if it's smaller than a Great Dane then what are you going to say? :D

Oddly enough, in some parts of the world they would feel the same about a dog or a cat. What difference does it make if the animal is cuddly and cute? They are all sources of potential meat.

This post was deleted as I had second thoughts and decided my sick sense of humor was a bit over the top and didn't want to cross the line.
