Pet Goat… Zoomies?

It’s not just dogs and cats anymore. Zoomies are really catching on! I don’t know how many people have pet goats in the house; but I’m willing to bet that an animal with hooves can really cut loose with the zoomies.

2 Dozen Baby Goats!

I don’t know how anybody counted these kids–they’re in perpetual motion. Look at all that energy! You’ve got to love these little characters. Resistance is futile.

The ‘Citizen Kane’ of Baby Goat Videos

Does any animal have more fun than a baby goat? I believe it was Pliny the Elder who said, “Search me!” Some of us here (not me, alas) have had the pleasure of raising baby goats. Erlene and Susan spring to mind. You miss out on some things, living in the suburbs.

Does Your Pet Love Your Trampoline?

You expect dogs and goats to groove on trampolines. Like, “What did I ever do with my life before I found this?” But you’ll soon notice there are no cats in this video.

A world-famous accordion player had to be treated for depression because his cat, Whiskers, refused to play on the trampoline with him.

Baby Goats Galore

When I was a little boy, all I knew about goats was they ate tin cans and wanted to butt you in the butt. That’s life in the suburbs.

Now I’ve seen all these cute ‘n’ cuddly baby goat videos, and I know better. Are they irresistible or what?

Bouncing Baby Goats

Need some joie de vivre in your life? Find some baby goats and set ’em up with a couple of old tires and a makeshift see-saw and just watch the fun.

Notice these little guys get into head-butting long before they grow horns. I wonder if there’s a way to get them out of it.

Follow the Bouncing Goat

All of a sudden I’m feeling quite tired. Well, you should’ve seen me whip up that opening scene of my new book. Who knew I could write so fast?

I’m also feeling a little bit whimsical–and what better way to satisfy that than by watching some goats on trampolines? We know baby goats love to play, but some of these are full-grown and they’re still diggin’ it. I wish I could be out there with them. I mean, how hard can it be, to bounce around on a trampoline?

Joie de Vivre, Baby Goat-Style

Baby goats never just walk anywhere, do they? Always running, jumping, and cavorting. I have always wanted to cavort, but never learned how.

As for the goat with the backyard trampoline–well, that’s a natural.

Baby Goats in High Spirits


You’ve gotta love baby goats. Their motto is “Never walk when you can hop, skip, and jump!”

I have no idea what grown-up goats are like. Do they grow out of all their playfulness, becoming all serious and sober? Say it ain’t so.

Cozy Kittens and Goats

For those of you for whom the goose video was too intense, here’s something much more quiescent. Note the kitten who wants to sleep in the hay, which is, inconveniently, the goats’ dinner. But nobody gets mad, everything’s peaceful and benign.

If this were a Freddy the Pig book, after the filming, they’d get together to start a barnyard newspaper or something.
