Today my only goat, Nanny died. We got Nanny as a tying goat 3 or 4 years ago and since the she's been our 3rd dog. My relationship with Nanny is hard to describe, but she was my goat. I loved her more than you think someone could love a goat. I fed her very morning, I lead her around. I petted her, and took care of her when she got sick. Maybe that's why her death affect me so much, because I feel responsible.
About a month ago Nanny started breathing a little heavier, but it was a good 100 degrees put so we though she was hot. The I realized that she panted even when it was 50 degrees out. I though she would get better so we waited. Finally I asked my dad to give her something, and we called our vet, said it was pnumonia(which is was we thought too)and gave her something that started with an F. (Can't remember the name) About a 1 1/2 to 2 weeks later she still essential better. She was worse. Much, much worse. She'd gotten skinny, wasn't drinking, could barley walk, and wouldn't even eat her grain. She made noises of pain and was breathing so hard. We called our vet and began giving that same medication and banamine every other day(this was on Friday) Then today, Tuesday she died.
Nanny was so much better from Friday and was eating her grain, but then last night when I fed her she didn't. I didn't think much of it but cleaned the snot off her nose and went back in. Today after volleyball I got a text from my grandma saying sorry about nanny. I didn't know anything had happened. I had to stand there for 15 minutes in the corer of our gym with my friends crying.
The reason I feel so guilty is because I wasn't walkways so kind to her.
Sometimes if rope her. Make her pull stuff, sit on her, and drag her around with a leash to move her. I feel so bad because she ment more than that to me I just don't know if she knew it.
Rest in peace Nanny 2009-2013 <3
Forever in my heart
