what would you do ? Our freind had a 3 month old billy goat and had to get rid of him. he said if we could not take him He would have to kill him because he couldnt get rid of him right away. We took him and now have found the best home for him and close by us and we can see him whenever we would like. I could NOT see killing ANY animal for that reason or any other reason. he wasnt going to put him down.... he was actually going to KILL him and dispose of him. :sad1: :angry7: :BangHead:

I think finding a home was the better solution killing should never be a first thought for anything but hey that's just my opinion
-
You did the right thing. There should be an animal shelter or humane society that can take the goat if he's really out of options. But I can also understand his idea of putting him down rather than starving the animal to death if he/she can't take care of it. But your deserve a pat on your back for doing what a normal and loving American would do. :thumbsup: Kudos for you!!!
-
I would have done the same thing. Don't feel bad cause I'm sure there are plenty of other people that would have done the same thing
-
You did the right thing, and I commend you for it. He could not afford to take care of the goat, and had ideas of disposing of it after he killed it. You taking him in saved the goat from a horrible demise. I can't see killing an animal when someone else can give that animal the love it deserves. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :wave:

Some friend he is! People like him should NEVER own an animal - ANY kind of animal. He's a barbarian.
-
Killing animals just because is bad anyway you look at it. You did the right thing.
-
we had a goat at one time and got told to get rid of it cause we did not live on farmland, so we asked around and found someone with a goat farm and they took it and said we can come and see him when ever we wanted to. i believe in giving an animal a chance to live rather then see it get killed ( i love animals)i agree you did the right thing.
-
As long as he goes to people who want him and who will take care of him, why would your friend care?...it sounds like you find a nice home for him.
-
Thank you all! Today we went to check on the goat and he is doing fine. He is actually with other farm animals and running around. So happy to see him this way!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
-
Finding a home for him is a better option.
I mean you're not the only one that he could have asked to take the goat. He had other options of finding another home for the goat (which you did) and you can see the goat whenever you can. So kudos to you!
-
You did the right thing. He should not have killed him. Why did he have the goat if he didn't want it.Too many people take animals without thinking ahead!
-
that is a good way to solve the problem or u can and have him bunched for meat they taste very good .
-
I'm so glad the goat is doing well. I am an animal lover, also, and can't imagine not trying to find a place for it if you have to get rid of it.
-
:o that is very sad how can they just be like im going to kill him :BangHead: :angry7:

Shooting him isn't really any worse than a vet giving him a shot.

You did the right thing to finding that billy goat a good home rather than ur friend killing it coz I am against animal cruelty u should never kill any animal for no reason just go n find him a good home n that it. I love all kind of animals I just hate to see someone kill an animals I have two pet birds that I love dearly anyway u did da right I am very proud of u GOOD JOB!!!!! :) :)

UPDATE! :thumbsup: I found a nery nice farm for the goat and I KNOW they will take bery good care of him. He is with other goats and animals and seem very happy. I can also go see him whenever I want to because they are freinds of ours and one of my other freinds reminded me of them so I called and the goat has a very welcome and warm home now. The grandkids love him! :wave: :thumbsup: Thank you all for your replies!
-
I would have taken him, too. Probably would have kept him if I couldn't find another home for him. I guess it's fortunate I l live in the country.
-
Of course you did the right thing, you found a good home for this animal, now don't waste your time worrying about it!
-
It was good that he found a home for the goat. Killing it should be the last thing on his mind.
-
If he didn't need to be killed and he now has a good home I don't see the problem. It was the thing to do.
-
oh no why would be kill him. i dont understand. how could he kill an innocent animal? it's like that one lady killed this guys dog dogs for him coz he couldnt take care of them anymore. i believe she cut off piece by piece. someone has to be insane to actually kill something or someone.
-
You did the appropriate thing. Killing an animal due to not being able to keep it is wrong.
-
You've got a great heart LuckyDeutch... bless you!
-
You are great!!! I applaud you. Animals can not speak for them selves so we must take care of them. Some people seem to think that they have no feels and can be disposed of or miss treated if they are no longer convenient. The rest of us need to protect animals from those people as often as possible.
-
sad,,,there should be a place to take him too :peace:

That is crazy when there are people who love to eat goat meat. You would not have to kill him and leave him for the buzzards. I think that you did the best thing for the goat. It is good that you can visit hi,. Sounds like he must be pretty friendly. I had a friend when I was growing up who had a lamb that used to butt you around the yard. It wasn't injurious, but very annoying. She finally sold Clem at an auction. Another idea. Even an ad saying Free Goat or just a sign in your yard. I thank you for saving the Goat and happy visitation!

just to clear some stuff up about the goat. today we went to see the goat and he came just a running to me and nudged his head against me like he was saying he missed me . I actually do not like goats but this one was a very special one to me and I would take in ANY animal( especially younger than a year old) that someoone was going to kill for the simple reason he didnt want it..I have talked to the guy today and he said I dont know why you gave it away... I would have PUT a bullet in him .( He does not eat goat meat.. so that would have been a waste). I told him if he EVER has another animal he does not want or he knows of anyone that does not want an animal, PLEASE call me asap and I will keep it or find it a real good home! He did agree but we will see what happens. I LOVE animals and do not want to see anything happen to any of them. I wish I was rich! I would have all the strays and animals noone wanted. I would have a big farm for them all. I dont care if the animals wwere chickens, goats, cows, horses, dogs, cats or ANYTHING! I LOVE THEM ALL! :thumbsup: I pray every night to be rich to have this dream come true. Maybe Im crazy but ............its my true feeling. :wave: :angel11: :angel12:

That was truly wonderful of you. I guess your friend didn't really love the goat. Makes me wonder why he had him in the first place. :dontknow: Living creatures aren't disposable. We're all connected. :peace:
