We miss you, Susie.

Last night, we had an unbelievable tragedy happen. I’ve been up all night, trying to process what happened and I still can’t believe it. Our sweet Susie died and I don’t even know how to console her grieving mother, Midge. There’s really only one thing that I don’t like about goats, and that’s that they head-butt each other. It’s just goats being goats. Most of the time it’s playful, but it’s still hard to watch sometimes. Last night, one of Susie’s friend’s head-butted her which is nothing unusual. I reviewed security camera footage and watched it happen. They all do it to each other all of the time. But this time, she was hit in the exact wrong spot. It was such a freak accident and just extremely bad luck. A large blood vessel ruptured in her back and she bled to death internally. Our vet came immediately and rushed her to surgery when we realized what was happening, but there was just no way to fix it. Last year, Midge and Susie were found tied to each other, dumped on the side of the road. When they came to GOA, Midge was emaciated after being starved almost to death. Susie was nursing and Midge gave everything she had in her body to Susie. It almost cost her her own life. They were inseparable, and were always seen snuggling. I know farmers rip babies from their mothers and tear siblings apart all the time, but we don’t see that here. Our goat families stay together so we don’t see them experience that kind of loss. Goats bond so intensely, and they grieve and mourn just like us. Midge has been standing next to the wall all night long and I don’t know how to help her. Of course we would never be upset with the little goat who head-butted Susie, because goats will be goats and it was an accident. Our vet thinks it’s possible that she already had an aneurysm and it just ruptured when she got hit. I’m just in shock, and of course I couldn’t sleep last night thinking about Susie’s mama. I’m so sorry to bring such sad news first thing in the morning, but this is our reality. Animal rescue is just as much happy as it is sad. RIP sweet Susie. You are already so deeply missed. I promise we will take good care of your mama. 💔
