That'll Teach You

This is our sweet little Lukey. He is such a lovable cat. He will curl up in your arms and purr, or follow you around the farm. He will even let the kids hang him upside down. He likes to take walks with us. He really wishes he were Kelly, the dog. You see Kelly gets to come inside and be with people whenever she wants. Luke will do about anything to get inside. We often wallk out the door with full hands and have to yell, "Someone get the cat!" He is fast.
However, if he keeps this up he will go the way of Sam.
Sam cried and cried for his women. No, he didn't lose his voice. I was walking in the neighborhood on Tuesday and could hear him crying from quite a distance. I was still thinking about charging that aesthetics fee, but the price was getting lower as I listened to the wails.
Of course there is the peeing on your face. Now that has to be worth something to see. He stood on top of the goat house bleating for help out, then peed on his face to entice the girls. No wonder they just left him in there. I don't understand billy goats.
He rested for a little while, but when Hubby and the boys got back from their Guys Night Out, Hubby asked why Sam was in the driveway. That's right. Amore reigns. He learned that he could put his front legs on the woven wire fence, give a mighty leap, and be free. Of course that still left him outside of the girls' fence, but I put him in so that he wouldn't destroy the neighbors' property. I don't think the aesthetics fee would cover the damages.
So today when a lady drove by and asked if I have any goats for sale, I answered, "You're in luck!" Tomorrow a man should come and get Sam for his holiday dinner. If only that lesson could be taught to high school boys!
